Al Gore takes the cake. He does, and he
believes people still believe he tells the truth.
In 1991 Gore, then a Senator from Tennessee
spoke about the Gulf War, and defended President George Herbert
Walker Bush. Gore said President Bush did the right thing by not
following Saddam Hussein’s army into Baghdad. Gore claimed
the UN resolution was to free Kuwait, not to bring down the government
of Iraq.
Al Gore has a shoddy memory, for just this
week he blasted then President Bush for not finishing the war
in 1991.
Gore is trying to position himself for another
presidential run in 2004. Al is as sly as ever, he just doesn’t
come off as polished. He plays politics at every stop, promising
to be “himself” this time around. Does Al even know
who “himself” is? Gore has been role-playing for so
long, he really doesn’t know how he feels about anything
without taking a poll, and then he brackets his comments so he
can later claim to have “not said that at all”.
Al Gore is the precise reason why so many Americans
stay away from the polls. Politicians like him have sullied the
system so badly, decent folks just don’t to bother with the
system. The system is poisoned by the politicians with no sense
of common decency, who think they are “getting over”
on the electorate. We are viewed as fools, people who will buy
any story.
Al Gore learned at the foot of the master,
but he is not as sharp, he is not as believable. Al Gore, please
spare us the nursery rhymes in 2004, go home, retire, write another
book on pseudo science that will scare the bejesus of folks who
don’t know any better.
That's
how I see it!
