Do Any of You Gimps Still Believe in Obama?

[SlowwHand]

No, I'm not done yet. Damned Gore sits on his ****ing hands for a 2 decades, doing not a damned thing.
Then the boy gets smart, and starts talking **** out of his ass in hindsight. Anybody can be a ****ing genius in hindsight. Gore has never done a ****ing thing. People like you, VICTOR, are the only thing worse. The only thing worse than a fool is some jackass that thinks that the fool is relevant.
I hope to **** you don't vote over here. You probably can. Sign up as a dead person in Florida. They'll count it twice.

Discussion whether Gore is the messiah most consumers who have faith in the big media assume after Gores recent success has turned into "well he is not Bush"discussion instead. Progress
Will you come little further and admit he might have done Iraq?

When you are done setting up strawmen to kick down, please come back in.

For example, no one said Gore would be the messiah. All Aggie basically stated was that Gore wouldn't have been the colossal ****up that was Bush (one of the worst Presidents in American history). Gore does his research and makes his decisions, but Aggie doesn't really like Gore's decisions in the end. The only one asserting messiah-hood is... interestingly, you. And now you made me defend Agathon.

Oh... and Gore would never have done Iraq. He wasn't in bed with the neocons who wanted to invade Iraq since the mid 90s.

You'll never know, Imran. That's a fortunate thing for you, and me. Tweedle Dum has already been here. I was expecting Tweedle Dee.

[Imran Siddiqui]

And we'll never know that if there wasn't a 9/11, whether George W. Bush would have announced to the world that he was gay and was running away with Dick Cheney, but I think we have a pretty good idea about how unlikely that would be.

All he said was that Gore wouldn't have invaded Iraq. I think he's right.

The problem with what he said is that it sets a depressingly low standard for president. "Just don't collasally **** up," shouldn't be what we expect of a prez.

[SlowwHand]

Listen, Imran. Don't go trying to lawyer this up.
9/11 happened. Gore sat on his during his VP days, and through Bush's terms. That actually happened.
Now he is best known for regurgitating things said in the 70's. Are you caught up yet?

I want to know. What has Gore ever done? Not a damned thing.

Well hell no, he wouldn't have. That would require someone that actually did something. He's from the Clinton school. Do nothing. That's whats safe. It goes over big with you people.

It's not a strawman because Gores recent media exposure makes that opinion something that is in the air, something that even Agathon could have had but I don't know if he did or not, I assumed not but it didn't matter to me when I wrote the post. I figured it would be an opinion some have here.

He's best known for leading the fight against a coming catastrophe, becoming one of the biggest voices against global warming. OBVIOUSLY what was said during the 70s didn't resonate with the American people, so someone had to bring it back up again and now we may actually get some change. If not, we need people to bring it up again and again and again and again and again until the morons in this country wisen up and realize what they are doing.

What else? What about pushing through the High Performance Computing and Communication Act of 1991?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High_Performance_Computing_and_Communication_Act_of_1991

which led to the creation of the National Research and Education Network and actually was instrumental in the creation of Mosaic (the money for it came from the bill).

Those two in itself are far more than the Idiot in Chief accomplished before becoming elected President. Since being elected, Monkey in Charge has shown that anyone who is halfway intelligent (and that includes Al Gore, who is that and more) could have done a better job.

You are an idiot. You don't listen. This is old news, Imran. He sat in on enough ralleys in college to at least note that, hey, these people are excited. 40 years later, he comes out of his fog and remembers.

Just forget it. Think what you want, hell.

Clinton Administration

Do nothing and balance the budget, stand aside and not get in the way of a booming economy, do welfare reform, cut size of government to its lowest levels since the Kennedy Administration... if that's do nothing, than give me more of it.


Oh, btw, as for the "Gore invented the internet" BS scandal:

In all fairness, it's something Gore had worked on a long time. Gore is not the Father of the Internet, but in all fairness, Gore is the person who, in the Congress, most systematically worked to make sure that we got to an Internet, and the truth is -- and I worked with him starting in 1978 when I got [to Congress], we were both part of a "futures group" -- the fact is, in the Clinton administration, the world we had talked about in the '80s began to actually happen.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Al_Gore

After joining the United States House of Representatives, Gore also held the "first congressional hearings on the climate change, and co-sponsor[ed] hearings on toxic waste and global warming."[52][53] He continued to speak on the topic throughout the 1980s[54][55][3] In 1990, Senator Gore presided over a three-day conference with legislators from over 42 countries which sought to create a Global Marshall Plan, "under which industrial nations would help less developed countries grow economically while still protecting the environment."[56]

Stop lying Sloww. You are getting as bad as Dick Nixon in being unable to tell the truth.

Well, I never bought the notion that Obama was going to save us all, and bring some trancendental politics of "change" that would heal everything (I think my support of HRC was relatively clear here). This thread in and of itself if proof of why that is a completely pipe dream.

That said, he is a decidedly superior choice to McCain in the coming election, and I will certainly vote Obama.
