Gore Still Holds Grudge for 2000, Finally Endorses Obama
Jun 17, 2008 Political
The prophet of the United Church of Manmade Globull Warming, Al Gore, finally endorsed Barry Obama for president. This is not surprising given that Hillary Clinton is all but done and most others are falling behind the Obamessiah. The question is, why did he wait so long?
During his endorsement speech (why did he have to give a speech) Gore told the doting mob of Kool Aid drinkers that they should take it from him “elections matter.” This is his way of saying that if he had been elected in 2000 things would be different than they are today. I have no doubt about that but Gore means they would be better:
“After eight years of incompetence, neglect and failure, we need change,” Gore said. “After eight years when our Constitution has been dishonored and disrespected, we need changes.” My Way News
Gore still cannot get over the fact that he lost, yes lost, in 2000. Every recount shows he lost and yet he is unable to come to terms with that. I know he likes to talk badly about the president but Gore should think back to when he and Clinton were in office and the abuses that they were involved in before casting stones. The Constitution is abused by those who somehow find the word abortion or health care in the document. No where in the Constitution does it say Congress shall fund health care for all people (or even some of them). No where does it say that murdering unborn children is allowed. It does say the president is the commander in chief of the armed forces and that Congress will fund the army and navy.
It is easy for Al Gore to say that things would have been different if he had been elected. However, there is no way of knowing how he would have reacted to the events of 9/11. If he used what was done while he was VP he would have treated it like a criminal act, lobbed a few missiles and called it a day. Bin Laden and the terrorists kept attacking us because they wanted a response. 9/11 was so catastrophic that, with a Republican in the White House, they got one. Gore might have done little, thus further inviting increased attacks. He might have handled it heroically and in the best interests of the nation but, like him, I have no real way of knowing. I only have a past to look at for clues.
Obama got his big endorsement and he is all fired up, ready to bring about change and hope and hope and change. He is ready to tax the hell out of everyone and to abuse the Constitution that Al says has been dishonored and disrespected by imposing universal health care.
Al Gore endorsing Obama was no surprise. He has had it in for the Clintons since he lost in 2000 (yes he LOST). Al waited to be the last of the big names in order to stroke his overinflated ego.
I will be impressed the day Bill Clinton walks out on stage and endorses Obama.
