"If Gore had become President we wouldn't be in this MESS!!!"

maybe we would be in a worse mess? maybe you would be wearing a burka by now ?


Absolutely we would have been in a much worse mess. Gore would most likely have treated the destruction of a significant portion of Manhattan like another police matter, just like Clinton did. Maybe after they blew up a major Chicago and another LA landmark Gore would have woken up and taken radical muslims seriously. But with weenies like Ramsey Clark advising him he still would have gotten it wrong.

He most certainly would have signed the Koyoto Protocol and we would be violating it right now just like all of the nations that signed it are. He would also have tried to implement the socialist mechanisms that Koyoto envisions to force state control of the economy. Oh yes, and he would have been defeated in 2004.

Can't be TOO idiotic, probably at least 70% of the country agrees with it.

After this credit and foreign policy mess plays out completely that percentage will probably hit 90.

Somehow, I think you'll still squeeze into that 10%.
