“We can build a collective civic space large enough for all our separate identities, that we can be e pluribus unum — out of one, many.”–Al Gore, getting the National Motto bassackwards, 1994
(Source: January 1994. From a Milwaukee speech to the Institute of World Affairs as quoted in Investor's Business Daily, October 25, 1996.)
Maybe Al is Latin deficient... or maybe this is just the logical outcome of the Identity Politics game he and his ilk like to play. After all, if we Balkanize our country, we can set ourselves up politically to play one group off the other for political power.
As I've noted, there are no little things. Words mean things. So does sequence.
(And by the way, where's Gore been since November 2009? Funny how the corruption and fraud of Global Warming "science" revealed by the CRU emails seems to have resulted in a hiatus from the public scene by Mr. Gore. That debating stuff is HARD!)
