8. Gore gives a shout out to The Daily Show with Jon Stewart!
Ironically, his interview ended up being fodder for "The Daily Show With Jon Stewart." Stewart played Cheney's outright denial that he had ever said that representatives of al-Qaida and Iraqi intelligence met in Prague. Then Stewart froze Cheney's image and played the exact video clip in which Cheney had indeed directly claimed linkage between the two, catching him on videotape in a lie. At that point Stewart said, addressing himself to Cheney's frozen image on the television screen, "It's my duty to inform you that your pants are on fire."


That was a prizewinning moment. Jon may be the most fearless journalist in the field, and he's not even a journalist.

19. Stewart's intro reporting has the same theme, over and over
The Bush cabal in a direct lie. I just can't can't get enough of it. Should be mandatory watching for all Americans.

Gore has been delivering speeches of historic significance lately. Today he has called for a special prosecution against "the mighty".

Indeed, I have hope for America when I see who is speaking for me now, finally and at last.

This will be a long hot summer.

13. I love Al Gores speeches..
He uses them to actually educate people. I know a lot of votes will be won with the 'catch phrases' and 'memes', but it's people like Al Gore that will change the way America thinks.

17. Were it not for Gore's magnanimity,
he'd be in the White House today--and we'd be much better off. But it's that same magnanimity that makes him more qualified than the entire Bush team. Someday we'll have to set up a system where the good guys win (or the ones that win without cheating, get in).

This man understands the need for checks and balances in government. The contrast with Bush is staggering.

They have such an overwhelming political interest in sustaining the belief in the minds of the American people that Hussein was in partnership with bin Laden that they dare not admit the truth lest they look like complete fools for launching our country into a reckless, discretionary war against a nation that posed no immediate threat to us whatsoever. But the damage they have done to our country is not limited to misallocation of military economic political resources. Whenever a chief executive spends prodigious amounts of energy convincing people of lies, he damages the fabric of democracy, and the belief in the fundamental integrity of our self-government.


Go get 'em, Al.
