This is the best thing possible for Pres. Bush because it amounts to Gore staking out a position that's very difficult to defend. And because Bush has the benefit of the bully pulpit, he'll have the opportunity to make suitably pithy remarks and reduce that bloated gasbag down to size.

By attacking the first Bush for pulling out in 1991, Gore's arguing that we should have ignored the text of the U.N. resolutions and the promises Bush made domestically and overseas to limit the war to the liberation of Kuwait. The test of the resolutions and congressional debates is easily accessible. And that gives GWB the opportunity to say that one of the reasons Saddam is still in power is because of the promises extracted by a reluctant Senate in 1990.

And it's going to be fun to see how he explains his current position in light of the Security Council and Senate resolutions passed in 1998, while he was Vice-President. Bush hasn't really had the right moment to break out all those lovely Dem quotes from 1998, but Gore just handed it to him on a silver platter. Thanks, Al.

I agree with every word you said! Brilliant! Gore just ended his career, IMHO.

I remember the gulf war very well and it was the rats that were screaming that me must limit ourselves to the UN mandate and not go into Bagdad. The road out of Kuwait city was a blood bath for the saddam's boy and the dems were upset by it. The news clips from the past will prove that Gore and the democrats are liers. How effing stupid is gore doesn't he realize that video tape existed 12 years ago.

Everyone seems to have their face saving explanations aabout 1991 and why Saddam still rules. What struck me about Gore is parent blaming - akin to saying "your mama!" And who cares much now?
