Ask yourself honestly, if Gore were President and was pushing to attack Iraq, would you care? At least care anywhere near as much? Especially if Gore had (ab)used the presidency to time the war to drown out economic debate prior to an important election and skated through it? Actually you'd probably be against the war, wouldn't you? Be blaming Gore for covering up his shoddy economic record and other scandals? And what if were doing it with Occidental Petroleum being the main beneficiary? Occi being a Gore family stock-holding which right-wingers like to call the kettle black about. You'd be crying holy hell corruption. Bottomline, Saddam ain't gonna attack the US. He's only important because of oil and the fact Bushies are oil-obsessed. Everything else is a minor concern. That said, there's gonna be a war and I'm not going to protest it. However I will call a spade a spade every time I see the hypocrisy. And I will continue worrying how the hell we're supposed to pay for all this Bush militarism. And I will wonder why Osama isn't caught and Kenny Lay isn't in jail.
