5. Yes, I did catch that.

That, along with his direct (and clearly heartfelt) assault on BushCo's "honor and integrity", just about knocked me out of my chair.

It's also worth noting that the RW media has completely ignored this *critical* challenge from Gore and, instead, has focussed completely on the "I'll endorse someone" aspect in his speech. As usual, it plays up the "all politics" angle, while completely ignoring the serious and damning issues he raised.

I'm not a Gore fan, but this speech was one of the best things I've seen from him to date, and the media response (or non-response, more accurately) is a solid reminder of just how far to the right today's media corporations have veered.
