(s)Elections See other (s)Elections Articles Title: Obama Would Consider Gore for Major Post WALLINGFORD, Pa. (AP) - Democrat Barack Obama says as president he would consider putting Al Gore in a Cabinet-level position—or higher. A woman at a town hall asked the Illinois senator if elected president would he consider tapping the former vice president for his Cabinet, or an even higher level office, to address global warming. "I would," Obama said. "Not only will I, but I will make a commitment that Al Gore will be at the table and play a central part in us figuring out how we solve this problem. He's somebody I talk to on a regular basis. I'm already consulting with him in terms of these issues but climate change is real." -Snip

A Commentary on the War Against Terror: Our Larger Tasks Author: Al Gore February 12, 2002 Council on Foreign Relations www.cfr.org/publication.html?id=4343 [snip] "As important as identifying Iraq, Iran and North Korea for what they are, we must be equally bold in identifying other evils that confront us. For there is another Axis of Evil in the world: poverty and ignorance; disease and environmental disorder; corruption and political oppression. We may well put down terror in its present manifestations. But if we do not attend to the larger fundamentals as well, then the ground is fertile and has been seeded for the next generation of those born to hate us, who will hold these things up before the world's poor and dispossessed, and say that all these things are in our image, and rekindle the war we are now hoping to snuff out. “Draining the swamp” of terrorism must of course in the first instance mean destroying the ability of terrorist networks to function. But drying it up at its source must also mean draining the aquifer of anger that underlies terrorism: anger that enflames the hearts of so many young men, and makes them willing, dedicated recruits for terror. Anger at perceived historical injustices involving a mass-memory throughout the Islamic world of past glory and more recent centuries of decline and oppression at the hands of the West. " [snip] Bombing them into prosperity and good govenors of the earth. Presidential logic. I guess he didn't read the CFR reports on the ME before he opened his yap.
Too easy. I wonder why so many supposed Conservative-Constitutionists that supported Ron Paul buy into the Globalist-Commie-Fascists' schtick? Maybe they want the Nanny State...
Who knows. Control over others. They're wired different.
I guess I am. I'm wired to want an end to the aggressive wars and violations of civil liberties of the Bush regime. You folks seem wired to have different priorities.

Sorry, you support a candidate that has not voted according to your values. Period. That you continue to stick a fork in your own eye isn't my fault, but unfortunately, becomes everyones problem. Frankly, I consider it cowardly. Maybe you just want to BELIEVE. Well believe this, the more power you give to government over you, the more they will take. And who are you to condemn us all for your weakness? My folks? Ah, you mean freedom loving Americans? Yes, we do have different priorities than you. You need a government teat and a sick need to control everyone else.

WELL said! The self-involved elites suffer from diverse spiritual and mental issues IMO...a prevailing darkness if you will. That's fine as long as they take it somewhere else (as in out of my face) and quit using government to sanction it... "Liberty is never given, it is always taken"
You must be confusing me with someone else. As I have said repeatedly, what I want is an end to the Bush regime's wars of aggression and violations of civil liberties. What is cowardly about that? I think the cowardly people are the ones who want -- or at least are willing -- to see those atrocities continue, just so that they can feel safe.
