" Bush Broke Law Repeatedly and Persistently ~ This shameful exercise of power overturns a set of principles that our nation has observed since General Washington first enunciated them during our Revolutionary War and has been observed by every president since then - until now . I call upon Democratic and Republican members of Congress today to uphold your oath of office and defend the Constitution. Stop going along to get along. Start acting like the independent and co-equal branch of government you're supposed to be": Al Gore 1/15/06

Al Gore spoke today, on Martin Luther King's birthday, with fire in his belly to a Bi-partisan audience and not only accused Bush of breaking the law repeatedly and persistently ~ but called for a special counsel, Executive Branch whistleblower protection and comprehensive Congressional hearings to immediately investigate Constitutional crimes by the Executive Branch.

Here are excerpts from his speech ~ a speech that was virtually ignored by the major media but instantly picked up by the blogosphere ( courtesy of fellow blogger Brad Friedman http://www.bradblog.com/archives/00002288.htm ) [...] See the excerpts here: http://tinyurl.com/ad5xf
