Αν Ο Αλ Γκορ Είχε Εκλεγεί Πρόεδρος

Ένα ωραίο άρθρο από τον Guardian που φαντάζεται το τέλος μιας "βαρετής" οκταετίας του Αλ Γκορ.

I think I started to dislike Gore when he stirred up a media storm after the Feds broke up the terrorist ring conspiring to fly airplanes into buildings back in 2001. He could have let it pass quietly, as Bill Clinton did with the millennium plot arrests in 2000. Instead, Gore held a press conference to milk it for political gain and scare us into a 15 cent per gallon gas tax. But who can afford to pay over a dollar and a half per gallon? No wonder we’re resorting to electric cars these days.

    «All in all, the Gore combination of psychodrama and condescension won’t be missed. It’s also time for the Democrat stranglehold on power to end. What we need now is a bit of adult behaviour: a Dick Cheney presidency won’t be eventful, but at least it will be calm.»
