Al Gore Gave A Speech Today

The former Vice President gave a rousing speech today on the backward movement of our government since the election was stolen from him (my words), Gore Assails Domestic Wiretapping Program.

Peter Daou put it this way:
If a tree falls in a forest... A former Vice-President of the United States delivers a major speech accusing George W. Bush of breaking the law. What do all three cable news nets cover under the "Breaking News" banner? An overturned tanker truck on a New York highway. THIS is the problem for the left. And as I've said a hundred times: if the Dem establishment doesn't go after the media institutionally, things simply will not change. It's astonishing to me that they haven't gotten it yet. The only other option is for the progressive netroots to organize and fight the media on its own, an uphill struggle, to say the least...
C-SPAN has the video, It's under recent programs, needless to say I recommend it highly.
