Yes. His statements that Gore and Bush are exactly the same, "Tweedledum and Tweedledee" is so wrong, it's offensive. Gore who won the Nobel Prize vs. Bush, who started the Iraq war, who fiddled while New Orleans and the Gulf drowned. I can even forgive his spoiling of the election if he recognized that his actions had unintended consequences and that there are better ways to achieve what he claims are his goals. But he won't acknowledge that he made a mistake; even now he's dismissing the current candidates, saying Obama and McCain are the latest "corporate candidate." I can't forgive that kind of egotism, that selfishness, that delusion.
Telling people who criticize him to "get over it"?? Tell that to the mothers of dead soldiers in Iraq. What a shitty, insensitive thing to say; what a pathetic attempt to deflect criticism. I physically tense up thinking of him.
And yes, I know he has a right to run--and we have a right to criticize him.
