huh? First of all domestic spending would have been greater under Al Gore. But in any case domestic spending is irrelevant here. With a liberal like Al Gore as President there would have been multiple 9/11s. The terrorists would not have had anything to fear.
I don't know if that's true. Bush spent like a drunken sailor, aided and abetted by a Congress of his own party. Would a GOP Congress have allowed a President Gore to do that?
Plus, as OBL pointed out, he could cause us to damage ourselves through spending (remember the USSR) with a very small investment himself. There wouldn't have been the need for many 9/11s if Gore spent as badly as Pres. Bush.
