Gore flips out again!
Ignoring massive evidence of pre-9/11 links between Saddam Hussein and al Quaeda- including those expressly acknowledged by the 9/11 Commission- former Vice-President Al Gore has launched another bizarre, over-the-top attack on President Bush today, accusing the President of lying both about the existence of those established links and about the weapons of mass destruction of which Gore himself once attacked the President's father for not depriving Saddam.
Gore completely mischaracterized the findings of the Commission, which agreed with the Administration that there were many pre-9/11 links between Saddam and al Quaeda, concluding only that there was no convincing evidence that they collaborated on the 2001 attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon . The Administration, of course, has never said that they did. Rather than lying about that point (as many Kerry supporters and members of the media have done), Gore accused the President of deliberately deceiving the public by mentioning Saddam and Osama bin Laden in the same breath!
Dick Morris, who was just on The O'Reilly Factor, believes that Gore will serve the "attack dog" role normally assigned the Vice-Presidential candidate, while the actual nominee for the job, Sen. John Edwards, plays the statesman. Still,as I've said before, it's sad to see a man who has spent his life in service to his country destroy himself in public.
