Reprise: Gore For President

I think if we can cut though the crap, there are precious few choices. Al Gore talks about the threat to American democracy:

Are we still routinely torturing helpless prisoners, and if so, does it feel right that we as American citizens are not outraged by the practice? And does it feel right to have no ongoing discussion of whether or not this abhorrent, medieval behavior is being carried out in the name of the American people? If the gap between rich and poor is widening steadily and economic stress is mounting for low-income families, why do we seem increasingly apathetic and lethargic in our role as citizens?

while Dubya talks the talk the talk the talk... (P.S. Note the quotation marks.)
