2. We're watching it for the third time! I love that man!
It's too bad that most Americans will never hear this speech. :(

6. Bush talks about fear...
but our guy talks about defending the Constitution. Against enemies both foreign and domestic. "Without a vision, the people perish."

7. and hope, sacrifice, and optimist. What a great speech. It will be reaired
and I will record this. A critically important event. Ignored by the MSM, except to have some paid political ASSassins on the Abramof payroll write columns attacking him.

Actually, I am glad that the White House responded as it did. It provided more coverage.

9. It is probably one of his finest speeches
And it made me teary-eyed to think of all of the stuff we have had to endure these past 5 years. Gore laid out each issue, and he's still right...we are probably the only ones that can do anything about protecting the constitution.

Sometimes the demonstrative tone of his voice, which was clearly anger, had the crowd on its feet, and it made me think of the Isley Brothers' Song, "Fight the Power."

Time is truly wastin'
There's no guarantee
Smile's in the makin'
You gotta fight the powers that be
Got so many forces
Stayin' on the scene
Givin' up all around me
Faces full a' pain
I can't play my music
They say my music's too loud
I kept talkin about it
I got the big run around
When I rolled with the punches
I got knocked on the ground
With all this bullshit going down

Time is truly wastin'
There's no guarantee
Smile's in the makin'
You gotta fight the powers that be
I don't understand it
People wanna see, ya
Those that got the answers
Red tape in the way

snip

If you & I can - we got the power
Fight it, got the power fight it........
Fight it, fight the power

:patriot:
