Candidate Gore?

Al Gore has released three no-fuss no-muss videoblogs on the Current TV website, detailing his views on some of the biggest issues in America today. And now everyone's a'twitter trying to figure out if this is his first stab at entering the presidential race. At the very least, Gore remains the definitive Democratic voice of reason. Whether he becomes a candidate or a king maker, Gore can redefine the democratic talking points and push the top-tier dems to fall in line with mainstream American views.

What was once the platform of the far left, is now the rally cry of every rational American. And it's time the Democrats realized just who their base really is.

Al Gore on universal healthcare.

Ding! Dong! Another One Gone!

What a great way to start the day! Attorney General Alberto Gonzales has resigned! And yet another Bush appointee has jumped ship. First Karl Rove, then Tony Snow, and now Gonzo. Who's next? And who, oh who, will replace these clowns?

Worst Person in the World


Tonight's winner: Comedian Rush Limbaugh.

Say Goodbye to Your Civil Liberties


The House passed a bill last night that will allow Bush's corrupt administration to spy on you anytime it wants to, for whatever reason it dreams up. You have no recourse. The Bill of Rights mean nothing.

Above is a clip of Representative Sheila Jackson Lee (D-TX) protesting the bill, and voicing the fury of the vast majority of the American people.

Why does it feel like shit is just getting worse around here?

Dick Cheney: Lying Liars Edition


TPMTV has parsed through all the lies in the Larry King interview of Dick Cheney and put together this highlight (lowlight?) reel.

Is it wrong that I dream of a day when we get to see him frog marched off to prison?

Cheney: "I Don't Recall."


The New York Times has reported that Dick Cheney sent Alberto Gonzales and Andy Card to the hospital bed of John Ashcroft, in order to get the former Attorney General to sign off on the warrantless wire-tapping program. So, in a recent interview, CNN's Larry King asked him point blank if that report was true.

Doesn't look like Larry King's buyin' that sack of crap, either...

Latest Gonzales Hearings

In this clip from Countdown, Keith Olberman takes a look at some of the testimony given at yesterday's Senate hearings, in which Attorney General Alberto Gonzales either perjured himself, or revealed yet another secret domestic spying program. Clip includes highlights from Senators Diane Feinstein's & Arlen Specter's questions.


In this segment of the hearings, Senator Chuck Schumer (D-NY) tries to get a straight answer out of Gonzales, but basically proves that he's been lying all along and that he's completely incompetent. If it weren't so awful for our nation, this would be hilarious.


And, finally, during the closing statements of the day's hearings, Chairman Senator Patrick Leahy tells Gonzales that he's lost all trust in him and that he has no credibility. And at the very end, Code Pink supporters shout for Gonzales to resign.


UPDATE: TMPTV has put together a highlight reel of all of the ugliness from yesterday's hearings. This is as beautiful as it is horrible.
