He never gets the point, does he?
Let’s set aside the fact that Al Gore lies constantly, over things that don’t matter. Let’s completely forgive the fact that he volunteers lies over completely inane subjects.
Forgotten? Good. Let’s look at Al’s logic. In this story at CNN, Al is warning us that invading Iraq will increase the likelihood that Saddam will use bioweapons. Of course he couches that belief in a statement of concern for our readiness in case of such an attack.
Does Al read the papers anymore? Maybe he doesn’t get CNN or Fox News Channel, or maybe he’s been without his invention, the Internet…
“We need a national defense public health act to respond to the immediate threat in the wake of an attack against Iraq,” Gore said in a speech at the George Washington University Medical Center.
It’s always more government with Al. Bigger, more, let’s bloat as far as the eye can see. I suppose the Anthrax scare didn’t mobilize us as a nation? The CDC and FEMA, among others, aren’t enough, we need another agency or level of bureaucracy?
I think the bioweapons angle is a red herring, though. What Al is really saying here is, if we attack Iraq and something bad happens to us, it will be our fault. The fundamental flaw in Al’s logic is that Saddam Hussein is going to use every weapon he has eventually, on someone, somewhere. Furthermore, we are going to be a target regardless if we “invade” Iraq or not. Given these two ideas...we might as well take a shot at deposing this lunatic. We *are* responsible for Saddam being in power, and correcting that error in judgement is long overdue.
