Update: Watch the speech. (RealVideo link, an hour long)
Right-wing critics have the temerity to say that this speech is the result of Gore going crazy. Fuckers.
Once again I ask: Where was this Al Gore during the 2000 election?
George W. Bush promised us a foreign policy with humility. Instead, he has brought us humiliation in the eyes of the world.
He promised to "restore honor and integrity to the White House." Instead, he has brought deep dishonor to our country and built a durable reputation as the most dishonest President since Richard Nixon.
Honor? He decided not to honor the Geneva Convention. Just as he would not honor the United Nations, international treaties, the opinions of our allies, the role of Congress and the courts, or what Jefferson described as "a decent respect for the opinion of mankind." He did not honor the advice, experience and judgment of our military leaders in designing his invasion of Iraq. And now he will not honor our fallen dead by attending any funerals or even by permitting photos of their flag-draped coffins.

Apparently, Moore's new film has some frightening insights into the politics and actions of Al Gore during the 2000 campaign.
I saw the clip of this and couldnt' stop laughing. It is I Have A Scream II.
This might have been Gore's best speech ever. Four years too late.
At least he's saying it now. We need as many people out there saying this stuff as we can get.
Just shaking my head over here again.
bush hadn't shown his sheer ineptitude as (p)Resident yet because he hadn't had the job. so where could Gore have got this kind of juicy ammunition?
