Al Gore, Gulf Warrior

Best of the Web says today:

Gore is no peacenik–he was one of only 10 Democratic senators who voted for the Gulf War–but it does seem likely that if he were president, America would be weighed down by deference to Europeans and pointless concern over “root causes.”

Yes, particularly since, as BotW fails to point out, he agonized over the vote (at least publicly) and, according to Alan Simpson, eventually sold it to the highest bidder in return for additional floor time–in prime time.
