"Lockbox...Where's the lockbox?"
Question is, who let him OUT of the Lockbox? Isn't someone in charge of keeping him there? LOL
Look at his face and tone of voice
PUKE!
So, wonder if Al Gore can be convinced to run in '08.
IMO, Gore, Hillary and Warner represent the three factions of the Democrat Party. Only fair all three factions have representation in '08. Unfortunately for Dems election wise, Leiberman's positions is fairly isolated.
What in the heck is this "inner being" he finished with? Good heavens, he is truly insane!
That's gotta hurt!
Just thinking the same thing. What happens to a politician if you issue a call to battle in a "major speech" and no one listens?
LOL... The DU'ers are convinced "This is our call to action!"
Making plans to put the speech on pamphlets and spread it around, hoping that the people "take Gore's dare and call for special council"
I almost feel sorry for them... almost.
Yes....he said that any candidate of either party that doesn't call for the special counsel...should be beaten at the polls...
Have they showed a picture of the "crowd" yet? I haven't seen it but I picture Tipper and a few friends sitting there with an applause machine.
So these are "their" demands?
We have a duty as Americans to defend our citizens' right not only to life but also to liberty and the pursuit of happiness. It is therefore vital in our current circumstances that immediate steps be taken to safeguard our Constitution against the present danger posed by the intrusive overreaching on the part of the Executive Branch and the President's apparent belief that he need not live under the rule of law.
I endorse the words of Bob Barr, when he said, "The President has dared the American people to do something about it. For the sake of the Constitution, I hope they will."
A special counsel should immediately be appointed by the Attorney General to remedy the obvious conflict of interest that prevents him from investigating what many believe are serious violations of law by the President. We have had a fresh demonstration of how an independent investigation by a special counsel with integrity can rebuild confidence in our system of justice. Patrick Fitzgerald has, by all accounts, shown neither fear nor favor in pursuing allegations that the Executive Branch has violated other laws.
Republican as well as Democratic members of Congress should support the bipartisan call of the Liberty Coalition for the appointment of a special counsel to pursue the criminal issues raised by warrantless wiretapping of Americans by the President.
Second, new whistleblower protections should immediately be established for members of the Executive Branch who report evidence of wrongdoing -- especially where it involves the abuse of Executive Branch authority in the sensitive areas of national security.
Third, both Houses of Congress should hold comprehensive-and not just superficial-hearings into these serious allegations of criminal behavior on the part of the President. And, they should follow the evidence wherever it leads.
Fourth, the extensive new powers requested by the Executive Branch in its proposal to extend and enlarge the Patriot Act should, under no circumstances be granted, unless and until there are adequate and enforceable safeguards to protect the Constitution and the rights of the American people against the kinds of abuses that have so recently been revealed.
Fifth, any telecommunications company that has provided the government with access to private information concerning the communications of Americans without a proper warrant should immediately cease and desist their complicity in this apparently illegal invasion of the privacy of American citizens.
Freedom of communication is an essential prerequisite for the restoration of the health of our democracy.
It is particularly important that the freedom of the Internet be protected against either the encroachment of government or the efforts at control by large media conglomerates. The future of our democracy depends on it.
TV screen on the stage is still lit up....waiting for Bob Barr. LOL
DU'ers are calling for him... lol
At least the example of Bush and Rove et al about using the American flag for a backdrop has become accepted custom by Democrats!
Lightning...Gore...strike
I thought everybody knew twenty years ago the Tonkin event was "staged".
The DU thread is hysterical!
Except they refuse to pledge allegiance to it!
Then did he quit or flunk out of Law School?
Scary how many idiots had nothing better to do then go to an lgore speech!
