Why are you using Google Drive? Eric Schmidt is a tech adviser to Barack Obama, the same person who selected a "war mongerer" in Joe Biden as his partner.


Umm, I think you're the one who doesn't know American politics.

"We know that he has stored secret supplies of biological and chemical weapons throughout his country." -- Al Gore, Sept. 23, 2002

"Iraq's search for weapons of mass destruction has proven impossible to deter and we should assume that it will continue for as long as Saddam is in power." -- Al Gore, Sept. 23, 2002


Ridiculous. Read the full speech and see how its message compares with your cherry-picked quotes: http://www.gwu.edu/~action/2004/gore/gore092302sp.html


Wow, I've seen some cherry-picking in my day but parent tries to bring out a message that is the complete opposite of what the speech says.

Yep. As one of the results in your linked Google search says, a decent headline summary is "Gore blasts Bush on Iraq war".


Still probably would not have gone to war over it.


How dare you introduce nuance and, um, "inconvenient" facts into a political discussion! You're distracting the masses.

Gore: good! Bush: bad! four-legs-good-two-legs-bad!


Will you stop using Google? Eric Schmidt has served as a tech adviser to Barack Obama.


Yes, I am limiting my use of Google consumer and business services for ethical reasons. Anything else?


Not to mention the countless drone strikes that kill numerous civilians in the process. Don't let that fool you though. They're apparently not as bad as waterboarding for some reason.



I think we've always held that torture is worse than killing a in a war.


* President Barack Obama selects Joe Biden as his vice president, the same person who voted for the Iraq War
