 Former Vice President Al Gore, also known to have lost the 2000 election, is in desperation mode now. Democracy is falling, democracy is falling. The sky is next, what with 'global warming' and all. Algore apparently is not alone in his neuroses. One doctor diagnosed that Gore's problem is that he lost the election, a wound that was re-opened when John Kerry lost another one. Gore and the people who still listen to him have confused losing power with a failing democracy. Just a teeny bit arrogant wouldn't you say? As usual, he is 180 degrees from reality. I would argue that election results are the triumph of democracy.
Al Gore; "I came here today because I believe that American democracy is in grave danger. It is no longer possible to ignore the strangeness of our public discourse . I know that I am not the only one who feels that something has gone basically and badly wrong in the way America's fabled "marketplace of ideas" now functions."

Was entertained this afternoon by one of those MSM types, Tom Oliphant of the Boston Globe. He was telling Al Franken and his Air America listeners that the United States has no business being in Iraq and we should leave on a timetable at the rate of 10,000 per month. Replacing our 10,000 with an equal number of Iraqis, trained or not. If we have 150,000 brave soldiers in theater, then that means that by January 2007 we would be out. Sounds similar to Ted Kennedy's plan to retreat and surrender. I believe the terrorists would be willing to wait that long. 
What we are seeing here is the split of democrats on the war on terror, including and especially the war in Iraq. The left finds itself way left of Sen. Hillary Clinton who at this point in time is not against the war effort in Iraq. The vocal left, not all democrats, but the vocal left, the Air America crowd, the Soros sponsored websites and think tanks are swiftly trying to take over the Democrat party. Due to their $upport of the party coffers and advertising campaigns, these people feel they have bought and paid for the party and want to take it over. This makes Hillary old school. Not just Hillary, but including many democrats as well.
It'll be interesting to see how this is going to shake out.

Hearken back to November 2001, when we learned that alQuida was trying to recruit Americans to join their jihad against all non-Islamic countries, especially the United States. The OU suicide bomber is but the latest example proving that the intelligence was correct. If the left and our biased media would have their way in weakening the Patriot Act, they will be facilitating more of these suicide bombings right here at home. Those who advocate that position are advocating for the enemy, and THAT is not being patriotic toward the United States of America.
