AL GORE FOR PRESIDENT

I VOTED FOR HIM BEFORE AND I'M READY TO AGAIN

IF ONLY HE WOULD RUN

I HAVE FOUND MY CANDIDATE FOR PRESIDENT. HE IS A TRUE STATESMAN. HE IS NOT AFRAID TO TELL THE TRUTH; THE WHOLE TRUTH. HE PULLS NO PUNCHES AND HAS NO HIDDEN AGENDAS. THE COURAGE HE SHOWS IN TAKING A STAND MAKES THE DEMOCRATIC CANDIDATES LOOK LIKE THEY HAVE WEAK TEA RUNNING THROUGH THEIR VEINS. HE IS SMART AND HE UNDERSTANDS THE ISSUES. HE CAN CALL A SPADE A SPADE AND PRESIDENT BUSH A LIAR.

HERE'S A BLURB BUT YOU COULD SIMPLY SAY "AL GORE TELLS IT ALL."

Gore Delivers Iraq Speech to MoveOn Members

Today at New York University at 11am EDT, former Vice President Al Gore gave a major policy address to over 500 MoveOn members. Here's an excerpt:

"Americans have always believed that we the people have a right to know the truth and that the truth will set us free. The very idea of self-government depends upon honest and open debate as the preferred method for pursuing the truth -- and a shared respect for the Rule of Reason as the best way to establish the truth."

"The Bush Administration routinely shows disrespect for that whole basic process, and I think it's partly because they feel as if they already know the truth and aren't very curious to learn about any facts that might contradict it. They and the members of groups that belong to their ideological coalition are true believers in each other's agenda.

BUT WATCH AND WONDER FOR YOURSELF. I THOUGHT I'D HEARD SOME HONESTY ABOUT THE PRESENT REGIME FROM A COUPLE OF THE CANDIDATES, BUT I THINK NOW THAT I WAS ONLY STARVED FOR ANYTHING RESEMBLING THE TRUTH. AL GORE TELLS IT BARE ASS NAKED. HE ISN'T RUNNING FOR OFFICE. HE'S GOT NOTHING TO LOSE. HIS WORDS UNPOPPED THE CORKS IN MY EARS SO LONG CLOSED TO THE DAILY LIES.

YOU CAN SKIP THE INTROS IF YOU LIKE, NOTHING SPECIAL THERE IF YOU ASK ME. START AT 5:30.
