Al Gore is appearing on a few shows this week, notably Larry King Live and David Letterman. Here’s a nostalgic tv screen capture that I snapped in 1993 when Vice President Gore appeared on David Letterman and discussed the need for federal acquisition reform.

The flavor, Stephen Colbert’s AmeriCone Dream™ is a decadent melting pot of vanilla ice cream with fudge-covered waffle cone pieces and a caramel swirl. It’s the sweet taste of liberty in your mouth.


Press Release

Stephen Colbert Gets a Double Scoop of AmeriCone Dream

Ice Cream’s Ben & Jerry Salute Flavor on “The Colbert Report”

BURLINGTON, Vt.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–The Nation will have to tune-in for sweet surprises as legend-dairy ice cream co-founders Ben Cohen and Jerry Greenfield of Ben & Jerry’s visit Stephen Colbert and “The Colbert Report” to celebrate and discuss his new ice cream, AmeriCone Dream, on Monday, March 5 at 11:30 p.m. ET/PT.

Ben & Jerry’s new flavor is a decadent melting pot of vanilla ice cream with fudge-covered waffle cone pieces and a caramel swirl. It’s the sweet taste of liberty in your mouth. Colbert believes AmeriCone Dream can make a difference. “I’m not afraid to say it. Dessert has a well-known liberal agenda. What I hope to do with this ice cream is bring some balance back to the freezer case.”

Stephen Colbert is donating his proceeds from the sale of AmeriCone Dream to charity through The Stephen Colbert AmeriCone Dream Fund. The Fund will support charities of concern to Stephen such as food and medical assistance for disadvantaged children, helping veterans and their families, and environmental causes. “I will save the world,” said Colbert.

From AlGore.com, a request for signatures as Big Al goes to Washington.

Help me send a message to Congress:
Now is the time to act on global warming.

I know from personal experience that the only thing that will make Washington really take notice and do something to solve the climate crisis is the prospect of millions of committed citizens taking action. It’s time to join together and make that happen.
Add Your Name

Sign the postcard to your representative demanding real action on global warming below and I’ll personally deliver it to Washington in March. I’ll keep you up to date on how things are going by email.
