Al Gore's problem, in my view, is that he never liked politics. He's actually deeply uncomfortable in it but felt he had to do it because of his father. He's much more comfortable in a private sector role and has, in fact, been much more successful in a private sector role, and I admire him for that.

This religious restraint in politics is critical to the maintenance of liberal democracy.

I actually bought the argument that if we democratized Iraq, we could create a space for venting some of the stuff that's going on in the Middle East in these autocratic regimes that is expressing itself through jihadism, because it has nowhere else to express itself.

[D]id you really expect fairness on the environmental issue? For a swathe of reporters, this is not a matter of empirical reporting it's a matter of faith. Bush cannot be pro-environment because he's Bush.
