Re: [OT] Another heated discussion about the Iraq siutation, war and politics.
I'm not trying to hang Gore over his choice of words. For me his policies were why I didn't vote for him, not because of a few mistatements of fact that he made. But the discussion seemed to be over whether or not he actually made a mistatement. You are not the first person I have had this discussion with. And Gore appologists consistantly refuse to admit their guy screwed up. What's wrong with admitting someone made a mistake? I am not even insisting it was an intentional lie. For someone of Gore's political training to make such an obvious lie is pretty unbelievable. So I have always just been under the assumption that it was simply a gaffe. But it ammuses me that I have never heard a single Gore supporter own up to it rather then trying to spin it.
