Gore's speech sounds just like articles of impeachment
It's so amazing to me how our leading Dems are so intelligent, articulate, thoughtful and steady....and the other side...well........


I am still amazed that bush is even allowed to run again, he really should be up on charges....The Repug party and the media should be indicted as co-conspirators!!!!

4. I know how you feel. I don't think I'll ever get totally over 2000 but
putting Kerry in will get me 99 percent there!

5. The problem, as I understand it, is that impeachment
is next to impossible because the House and Senate are majority Republicans. They are NOT going to go along with impeaching their "Lord".

I can't believe we have a system like this where such snafu's can occur! What were the founding fathers thinking???

I know as per constitution that the people are allowed to "revolt" and bring down any government in power that isn't doing it's job or committing crimes against them/the state. Does that mean REVOLUTION? Geezus I just don't know how citizens can address this situation without a provision for it.............??? NO IMPEACHMENT POSSIBLE BECAUSE THE ENTIRE GOVERNMENT IS HELD BY ONE PARTY???? This is INSANE.

A government can run amok and commit crimes, break laws and there isn't anything or provision/institution to FIRE THEM? JAIL THEM? Holy Cow!

6. I thought the same thing, when I heard it. Although he qualified it by
saying only "You have the power..to vote him out because he hasn't been held accountable," I stil thought his speech was "Articles of Impeachment."

And, Henry Waxman has all the "Articles" in the many letters he's written to Bush/Cheney Admin over their time of "Usurption of the Presidency."

Gore is saying if we don't get Kerry in...they will NOT be held accountable.

I, for one, want to make sure they are...It was a great speech..slow at the start but building up to a "call for OVERTHROW" of the Emperor who HAS NO CLOTHES...and nothing but Texas Bravado and backing by huge power interests to hold him up. :shrug:
