How can any real American disagree with a single thing Gore said?

[Bandit]

Everything he said is so basic as to be incontrovertible and I don't see how any American could disagree. Either we are a nation of Law or we are not. There is no middle ground...

1. He did lay it out very plainly

Now it's time for us to do our job - vote progressives into office in '06, and get Bush out before he can cause any more harm.

[Avalux]

2. No one. However, the substance of his speech will not be discussed

We already know the drill - the speech by and large will be ignored and Gore will be personally attacked without mercy. That's all they know how to do cause they've got nothing else.

3. it was non-partisan and he explicitly included republicans. n/t

4. The only way to disagree with it...

..is to say it is too legal to go against the Constitution and besides we're all so skeered about terrorists who are trying to destroy our freedoms that we'll destroy our freedoms ourselves. That'll show them terrorists.

Gore addressed this:

"Fear drives out reason. Fear suppresses the politics of discourse and opens the door to the politics of destruction. Justice Brandeis once wrote: "Men feared witches and burnt women."

The founders of our country faced dire threats. If they failed in their endeavors, they would have been hung as traitors. The very existence of our country was at risk.

Yet, in the teeth of those dangers, they insisted on establishing the Bill of Rights.

Is our Congress today in more danger than were their predecessors when the British army was marching on the Capitol? Is the world more dangerous than when we faced an ideological enemy with tens of thousands of missiles poised to be launched against us and annihilate our country at a moment's notice? Is America in more danger now than when we faced worldwide fascism on the march-when our fathers fought and won two World Wars simultaneously?

It is simply an insult to those who came before us and sacrificed so much on our behalf to imply that we have more to be fearful of than they. Yet they faithfully protected our freedoms and now it is up to us to do the same."
