Quote from Pa(b)st Prime:
Gore picks a Senator for his VP who is such an over the top neo-con that he was run out of his Party by the far-Left wing yet liberals act like Gore foreign policy would've been Gandhian.
From the BBC in 2000:
US Vice-President Al Gore has told Iraqi opposition politicians that the United States remains committed to the overthrow of President Saddam Hussein.
"There can be no peace for the Middle East so long as Saddam is in a position to brutalize his people and threaten his neighbors"
Meeting a delegation from the Iraqi National Congress (INC), he also reiterated the administration's view that the Iraqi leader should be tried for war crimes and crimes against humanity.

Dude I have excellent memory. You also brought up crap Clinton said during Lewinsky deal. There is a difference between saying and doing. clinton said a lot of things about saddam but did not invade. Gore would have paid lip service. As to why he chose Lieberman. It was a desperate attempt for people to leave him alone concerning Clinton and his "immorality" with lewinsky.
