1. Aren't you the guy who derided those to engaged in "name calling" of debate opponents? I guess the rules don't apply to liberals.
2. Re Gore, who is the issue here. The facts really do speak for themselves. I'm not a party-liner by any stretch and take pride in my independence; It's because of my individualist nature that I generally relate more to the Republican view of things, and will in this election more than I ever have before. If Bush wins and his supporters are magnanimous towards Gore in victory, it won't be that Gore is honorable once again (why is this even an issue?), but rather that Republicans don't flog their vanquished opponents after they're gone, in stark contrast to Democrats. Think about it. Democrats really do seem to hate Republicans, and apparently are obsessed for posterity with destroying their memory; not just when they're alive, but especially when they're dead and can't defend themselves.
3. The GOP is very much against scandal politics. That's why individual Republicans who are caught in scandals are encouraged to fall on their swords, like the Japanese used to do, and exit politely (Nixon, Gingrich, Livingston), whereas some "New Democrats" (e.g. Clinton, Gore) who, by contrast, arrogantly clutch their power and wage "psyop" warfare to maintain it. The Clinton/Gore machine has access to, and uses to its full advantage, the most elaborate political propaganda machines on earth, including the military (e.g the "wag the dog" scenarios we've seen in real life), to distract and obfuscate.
This is the kind of experience Gore wants us to base our vote upon. I vote, "BUSH/CHENEY." |
