Former and still bitter Vice President Al Gore will deliver a major address Monday on the threat posed by policies of the Bush Administration to the Constitution and the checks and balances it created. The speech will specifically point to domestic wiretapping and torture as examples of the administration's efforts to extend executive power beyond Congressional direction and judicial review.
The Vice President (no bias here, really) will make the case that the country -- including the legislative and judicial branches and all Americans -- must act now to defend the systems put into place by the country's founders to curb executive power or risk permanent and irreversible damage to the Constitution.
Lemme guess, the main subject will be the NSA / FISA 'controversy', which wasn't a problem under your administration, was it, Mr. Gore? Side dish of Gitmo, coming up!
The extent of bipartisan concern over these issues is highlighted by former Republican Rep. Bob Barr's introduction of the Vice President next Wednesday, and by the organizations cosponsoring the speech.
That's hilarious - one former Republican congressman's mentioned and they label it a 'bipartisan concern'. What balls they have...
The Liberty Coalition brings together ideologically diverse organizations across the political spectrum, including liberal and conservative groups, to preserve the Bill of Rights, personal autonomy and individual privacy.
Um, care to mention any of the organizations, or is this Double Secret Probation time until the speech (looks like it's a RSVP only teleconference - details at bottom of article for you wedding crasher types).
The American Constitution Society for Law and Policy (ACS) is one of the nation's leading liberal progressive legal organizations. Founded in 2001, ACS works to ensure that President Bush is to blame for everything the fundamental principles of human dignity, individual rights and liberties, quotas genuine equality, and truckloads of liberal judges access to justice are in their rightful, central place in American law.
