General Discussion
In reply to the discussion: imagine this AL GORE [View all]Botany
(72,787 posts)on the mine safety org.) no Dick Cheney becoming a billionaire from his outsourcing of DoD's work
to his Halliburton/KBR operations, no Thomas or Alito on the SCOTUS, no Ohio 2004, no outing of Val Plame
by Rove & Cheney, no Don Siegleman in jail, no w joking about where are the WMDs?, no the killing
of 10s of thousands of wild run salmon in CA as per Dick Cheney, no HAVA (help America vote act
gotta vote on electronic machines), no turning Clinton's surplus into a huge deficit, no Dick Cheney
shooting a man in the face after drinking, no letting the Saudis getting away with their crap, no
economic collapse, no green energy programs, and how many billions of tons of CO2 would not have
gone into our atmosphere?
I forgot no Citizens United, no massive refugee crisis caused by the Iraq War, a President Gore
would have had bin Laden and al Qaeda taken care of, no President Trump either, and no trillion
dollar right wing slush fund from stealing all the oil from Iraq. No Gitmo or torture of Iraqis for
fighting against America's invasion.
And this would not have happened:
France warned us about how an invasion of Iraq would cause massive blow back to which the GOP answered
with freedom fries.
