Being pure as the driven snow, and beholden to no special interests (GAG!), Mr Gore will speak to the audience on Sunday about how the Bush administration's actions in the War on Terror are "actually a smokescreen that obscures the Administration’s fundamental failure to meaningfully protect our national security, and that their efforts have weakened rather than strengthened America." (from MoveOn.org's email to supporters)
All part of the Democrat Game Plan, as documented in their Senate Intelligence Committee memo.
Now's your chance to tell the DemocRATS what you think about their "party before country" activities.
EAGLES UP!
Terry McAuliffe, Tom Daschle, Ted Kennedy, Jay Rockefeller, et.al., long ago declared war on the truth - now is a good time to remind the public that they don't speak for (or to) mainstream America, and that their recent actions and speech are endangering Americans at home and abroad.
With McAuliffe in control of the aparatus and the dwarfs each looking really, really stupid, they need a man on a white horse. It has to be Al, even if they all know he can't win. It will leave it to Hillie to come out of the sewer in 2008.
Remember as you protest him, he WILL BE the dem candidate to face President Bush in 2004!
Dear MoveOn Member,
In June, twenty thousand MoveOn members interviewed each other by phone to help us explore the values underlying our work together. One striking theme emerged: the deep concern Americans have with the Bush administration's attacks on our cherished liberties, in the name of security. Since June, we've been looking for a powerful way to respond to this clear mandate, and when former Vice President Gore asked us to co-host a policy address on Freedom and Security, we jumped at the chance.
You are invited to view this important speech on Sunday, November 9 at 2pm EASTERN by web cast, or on Link TV. In Washington DC, this event will be attended by local MoveOn members and by members of our partner in this effort, the American Constitution Society. Unfortunately, all seats for the event are filled. But we encourage you to tune in this Sunday, at 2pm Eastern, by going to:
http://www.moveon.org/gore/webcast.html
The program will be broadcast live on Link TV, the national television network available on DIRECTV (channel 375) and DISH Network (channel 9410). C-SPAN will likely broadcast the speech as well, as long as another news event doesn’t supercede the speech on Sunday.
In this, his third major speech on the Administration's response to terrorism, Mr. Gore will describe the Administration's assault on our civil liberties as un-American and will charge that the Bush/Ashcroft attack on the Constitution is actually a smokescreen that obscures the Administration’s fundamental failure to meaningfully protect our national security, and that their efforts have weakened rather than strengthened America.
In August, Mr. Gore delivered a speech sponsored by MoveOn that opened a space for other leaders to speak out against the Bush Administration's deliberate use of false impressions to mislead the nation on war, taxes, the economy and the environment. That speech did nothing less than shift the terms of the national debate, and we expect this speech to have as big an impact.
Again, here are the details:
Al Gore Speaks on Freedom and Security Sunday, November 9, 2:00 pm Eastern Webcast: http://www.moveon.org/gore/webcast.html Broadcast: Link TV and possibly C-SPAN
See you there.
Sincerely,

Apart from the Patriot Act, the Homeland Security Department, John Ashcroft, McCain-Feingold-style Campaign Finance Reform, detaining people (yes, I know they're despicable people) without charge, the Transportation "Security" Administration, and the support for renewing the "assault weapons" ban, the Bush administration is good for freedom.
I sincerely hope, tgsl, that you didn't plan to contrast Bush/Cheney (under whom all the above have happened) with Clinton/Gore. Hope you simply stuck to Clinton/Gore's wrongdoings, real and alleged, and didn't say a thing about how "good" George Bush has been for us...
OK, OK, I admit, Bush is not into ludicrous-ness like this nutjob is...
