Just checked CSPAN when I saw this, because I thought I'd missed the beginning, and it says 12:00.

14. From The C-Span's Mouth...

http://www.c-span.org/

IN THE CAPITAL
Gore Speaks on Pres. Bush
The American Constitution Society and the Liberty Coalition host a speech by Fmr. Vice Pres. Al Gore at the DAR Hall in Washington. Gore speaks about the limits of executive power, the issue of monitoring domestic communica-
tions and the authorization of the use of torture in the war against terrorism.
MONDAY, C-SPAN, 12PM ET

That means in less than an hour. I'm ready!!

[im10ashus]

6. My schedule says 12:00EST

:shrug:

I am wondering if the "MSM" will cover this.

[goclark]

10. Keep dreaming ~ Praise for Alito all of KING Day nt

[im10ashus]

13. It's so depressing.

The sheeple are clueless.

[Eric J in MN]

16. Here is coverage of an earlier Al Gore speech

by the mainsteam media. The New York Post's John Podhoretz wrote:

I]t is now clear that Al Gore is insane. I don't mean that his policy ideas are insane, though many of them are. I mean that based on his behavior, conduct, mien and tone over the past two days, there is every reason to believe that Albert Gore Jr., desperately needs help. I think he needs medication, and I think that if he is already on medication, his doctors need to adjust it or change it entirely.

<...>

Gore's speech is the single craziest political performance of my lifetime, and I use the word "craziest" advisedly. The speech, at 6,600 words, was twice as long as Bush's address to the nation on Monday night. The indiscipline shown by the sheer endlessness of Gore's address is a reflection of the psychic morass in which he has become mired.

[im10ashus]

19. Well there we have it.

That fine and reputable resource, the NY Post, is on the job. :sarcasm:

[Horse with no Name]

21. As far as I am concerned

Our REAL President hasn't said enough.
I only hope 6600 words is enough.
Oh btw, I wonder if when they count the words for Bush's speeches, if they count all the uh,uh,uh's?

[Mabus]

26. So they're going back to their "Gore is crazy" rhetoric

Looks like they're starting early this time.

New Gore speech, same right-wing diagnosis

In the wake of former Vice President Al Gore's May 26 speech (sponsored by MoveOn.org and delivered at New York University) about America's Iraq policy, right-wing pundits purported to diagnose Gore as mentally ill. Following Gore's June 24 American Constitution Society-sponsored speech at the Georgetown University Law Center -- in which Gore accused President George W. Bush of lying about the connection between Saddam Hussein and Al Qaeda -- Bush-Cheney '04 chief strategist Matthew Dowd reacted to Gore's speech on MSNBC's Hardball, referring to Gore, along with Michael Moore and George Soros, as a member of "John Kerry's coalition of the wild-eyed." Dowd's pronouncement turned out to be a preview of a new Bush-Cheney '04 video titled "John Kerry's Coalition of the Wild-eyed" and posted on www.georgewbush.com on June 25.

And a new crew of right-wing pundits weighed in on the mental condition of the former vice president.

22. YAY! I made it home in time!

I scheduled an early, early hay delivery. I am home at 10:30 having already unloaded and stacked 120 bales of hay. I can rest and listen to Gore, ahhhhh. Can you tell I am pleased? :)

[im10ashus]

23. You've had a busy morning.

15 minutes until Gore!

:woohoo:

[MuseRider]

24. I wouldn't do it for just anybody!

Seriously, I really wanted to hear it. I could have Tivoed it but I wanted to be here with you all when it happened. I need the boost I can get here while I get the boost from Gore. We need people of courage to speak out, every one we have makes for more progress I hope.

12 minutes to go!

[im10ashus]

25. I am looking for mention of it in "MSM".

It's just not being covered. No surprise.


10 minutes!

[MuseRider]

28. I would be surprised

if they ever mention it. When there is actual blood in the water it might get a reference but not until then. Maybe it is just being cynical but whatever, 6 minutes!

[im10ashus]

29. It's NOON!

Let's go Gore!
