They all do it. Lets move on.The names and faces change but the agenda basically remains constant.
Gosh, that wasn't too hard now, was it? Take a Dem attack against the current Administration (which never went very far), and use it to discredit everything previous?
I am probably as conservative as the most far right person here on FR ; and it is obvious to me that the government even under Bush is just as corrupt , just as unmindful of "WE the PEOPLE " , just as willing to murder and burn out citizens, just as willing to give $$$$$ and technology to China, just as willing to suck up to minorities, just as willing to use nepotism in high appointments and just as willing to subvert the Constitution in order to further enslave the people as was the heinous Clinton ...
I see your point that Bush is just the same as Gore.
Surely, Gore would have returned to the Mexico City policy on international abortion funding.
Gore would have successfully sabotaged the UN racism conference, instead of going himself and "feeling good" along with all the race-baiting, anti-semitic delegates.
Gore would have presented a tax cut to Congress and then he would have signed it.
Gore would have put at least some limit on funding for fetal stem-cell research.
Gore would have let the House leadership block the patients' (lawyers') Bill of Rights without a nuclear PR campaign.
Gore would have installed an atty general who believes in the right to bear arms, and who will delete gun sale data within 24 hours instead of 90 days.
Gore would have successfully convinced the world that we need NMD, just like Bush has.
Gore would have handled that Chinese problem just fine -- "Oh, sorry, we'll ground all of our spy planes from now on. We don't need to spy on our campaign contributors!"
Gore would have just stood by as the House leadership blocked the unconstitutional Campaign Finance Reform bill.
Problem is, you can't always get what you want in politics, especially not right away. Some people never learned that lesson when they were children.
