Al Gore vs. Bonds: Who Roided It Up Better?

I came across an article at ArmchairGM (via Reddit) about Barry Bonds vs. Mark McGwire: who was the better steroid user?. Personally, I thought they did the wrong comparison. They should be looking at Al Gore.

Let's assume that Barry Bonds uses/used steroids. Let's assume the same thing about Al Gore.

Nothing too controversial about either assumption, right? Right. But it's sure fun.

Which guy's steroids regimen was the way to go?

Barry Bonds is likely to break Hank Aaron's home run record, but Al Gore has been breaking box office records himself. The numbers alone were not enough for us to go on, so I present some pictures here.

1987 vs 1980

Here both Barry and Gore are looking pretty slim and twig-like.

1990 vs 1995

Barry is trying to decide whether he should start using steroids and Al Gore is learning about this new thing called the World Wide Web.

1993 vs 1997

Here they both are during the '90s, but both of them are still looking natural. Gore looks like he could use some steroids.

1996 vs 2000

1999 vs 2008

Here's a picture of Gore winning the 2008 presidential election. He clearly has Bonds beat on the steroids use, and doesn't even have to use body armor to win the presidency, unlike Bonds.

2002 vs 2010

And here they are at their most bulky. Do you see what steriods does to you, kids? It makes you look like the sword-arm guy from 300.

Here's a picture of them from their rookie year, just to show you how much they've changed:

These pictures pretty clearly show the use of illegal performance enhancing drugs by both people. Are we going to start screening for drugs before we swear in a United States President or are we going to allow this abuse to continue?
