You would not have been able to say the same about Gore or Kerry.
You don't know that at all. Maybe you weren't around when a democrat sent us into a war of independence in Vietnam. Also based on what turned out to be false information. And another thing, Gore had Lieberman on his ticket. A man every bit as bad as Cheney. And look at your patriot act there. Lieberman's name is all over it. When it comes to the middle east, Lieberman is just as hawkish as Israel's Lieberman (look him up). I am willing to bet he would have shown some real "shock and awe" if he had his chance. And Kerry? Please! After promising not to send our boys to die in a "senseless war", he would find a way to do just that, just like Johnson.
