2. Indeed, he was saying America has a choice.....
We can go along with the Nazis or we can choose a different way. t is up to us. He said it from his heart. He was sincere. He said it as a patriot. America, are you listening?

6. And, he said in so many words...that if he'd know what was to come, he
wouldn't have been as gracious in Florida as he was. BUT...I know he DID FIGHT..but our Dems didn't support him and we allowed the Repug/Evil Chimp Operatives to make us look bad shutting down the vote count.

OMG! We can't let this happen again. A candidate can't be out there "alone." Not against these "Hounds of Hell."

But, now we are organized. We can get busses of volunteers if we ever have another "Selection." We know about the paperless trail voting machines, the thousands thrown off the polls, and that "they" will lie, cheat, steal their way to ruin American Values and to bring us to our knees with their Greed.

What happened to Gore, must and WILL NEVER happen again..WE won't let it EVER HAPPEN AGAIN! We CAN'T and WON't. :nuke:

9. Sadly, too many people do
;(

I didn't understand all the threads about the speech untill I watched it. The intonations and inflections and passion was almost, Clintonesque.

11. so?
I think it would be fair to call that one of the most important political speeches in American history. I would go further than that. But apparently understatement was inadequate for you? Or do you actually agree?

14. It is also
the end of the age of Pisces and the beginning of the age of Aquarius.

I hope that means the end to this national nightmare.

13. Just saw it out here in Kahlifornyah
Blew me away. The dude nailed it...hit all the high points and hammered home a few with oratory reminiscent of a charismatic preacher (yeah, big surprise to many who bought the whole Al-Gore-is-made-of-wood thing).

The key is going to be whether this amazing performance gets the wide exposure that it warrants. Let's hope so -- the tide's definitely turning, or turned, and President Gore is playing Neptune to Doofusboy's pseudo-Canute.
