Gore is throwing it down on Larry King

[TomInTib]

WH bs on Iraq, global warming, on and on.

Normally, I would rather swallow ground glass than watch King, but this is really good.

[MikeNY]

1. Go Al!

King: Do you think we need to leave Iraq?
Al Gore: Well, yeah!

[GregD]

2. I pray someone will have this video for use later

A lot of people need to see this more than once

[snappyturtle]

32. Check this out...

www.cnn.com/CNN/Programs/sunday.html scroll down on page's right had side to "Best of TV" section and click on Al Gore for 5:55 minutes worth of Gore on King talking about his book and movie---short IBM ad precedes Gore.....at least it's a little.

[Cha]

39. Thanks!

[Debau2005]

14. mostvotes, Here we go with the little games, trolls are so.........

....funny. :puke: :puke:

[Cha]

40. They would be funny if

they weren't so pathetically stupid.

[MuseRider]

5. Two nights in a row!

I have not watched any of the "news" channels for the last year and a half or really almost 2 years except on the rare occasion someone like this is on. I watched last night and now tonight. Yikes, it scares me how much I miss intellegent discussion of the news and issues.

[TomInTib]

6. 'intelligent discussion' Isn't that the truth!!

I normally catch Lehrer in this time slot, but they were showing the pukefest in Baghdad (the idjit's little talk to the troops and cameras). I just couldn't take it and switched to CNN.

[MuseRider]

12. Now THAT

is saying something. Switching to CNN because the others are worse. Makes me shudder. Tonight it was a great choice as was last night.

[bigdarryl]

7. AL GORE

Can someone explain to me why everytime a dem. is being interviewed these talking heads always ask them there position on iraq as if there trying to trap them.

[Gregorian]

13. The man has brains. It's hard to watch.

Every answer is right on target. His solutions are aimed at the source of the problem, as opposed to bandaging up the symptoms.

What we've been subjected to for the last six years is nothing short of insanity.

We need someone like Gore.

[OwnedByFerrets]

15. It was great that King

said that he LOVED the movie!

[OwnedByFerrets]

17. And btw, AL IS FANTASTIC!!! N/T

[Minnesota Libra]

18. Do you have any idea how totally............

.....screwed we are if O8)Gore O8) don't run in 08?? I hope he is just waiting for a million people to beg him a little bit. If not :hide:

[OwnedByFerrets]

19. Well, he won once, and that was when

he wasnt nearly as charismatic as he is now. If not stolen, he could win in a landslide.

[madmunchie]

23. When you watch Al Gore answer questions and talk about things, it is

just so damned embarrassing to see who is sitting in the WH. How absolutely tragic for all of us.

[RamboLiberal]

38. Made me want to cry to watch how "Presidential" and knowledgeable

Gore was on King and to think how the Repukes stole the 2000 election and put that idiot in to the WH. Think of how great this country would be if Gore were in the WH. And it is so maddening how the media whores lied and set out to destroy him and continue to do so.

[Apollo11]

26. Every answer is right on target.

I strongly agree with you, Gregorian!

20. I watched it, Gore was great.

And bless him for trying to wake up America about the climate crisis that is Global Warming. I really appreciated how he made the connection between how the Bush Administration used the same type of deliberately distorted and censored "information" to justify going into Iraq as it does to justify not taking Global Warming seriously. I was listening closely to Gore's opinions on Iraq, both on how we were rushed into Iraq ,and about what we need to do about Iraq now. He and Wes Clark seem to be speaking from the same page regarding Iraq. I have a great deal of respect for Al Gore.

[MikeDuffy]

21. "...We almost certainly are at or near what they call peak oil,

defined as having recovered a majority of the oil reserves at a certain price, afford-ability range. And so with the new pressure on the consumption side from China and India, if they come back down, they won't stay down long."

In response to Larry's question "Gas prices going to go down?"

[AlGore-08.com]

22. As always, K & R for President Gore!

:patriot: :kick: :patriot:

[Pryderi]

24. Anyone got an online vid?

[Apollo11]

25. It's gotta be Gore!

It's great to see the positive response that people are giving his book and movie.

It can only increase the likelihood that he could be persuaded to run again.

But nothing in politics is certain, and now is not the time for Al to be talking about 2008.

He doesn't even have to face that decision for another 12 months - at the soonest.

In case anyone missed Al on Larry King, the transcript is here:

44. Thanks for the link Apollo

Kicked and recommended!


:kick:

[Totally Committed]

27. This was an outstanding show.

Normally, I wouldn't watch Larry King if my life depended on it, but this was super. Al really did the Democrats proud.

[Justice]

28. It was a great show

I was sorry to see it end. I liked the way Al answered the questions, and deflected the constant aren't you gonna run again, uh, uh? overtone in Larry's questions.

There is something new in Al Gore, and he captured at the end of the interview - when he quoted the saying, that which doesn't kill you makes you stronger. He did suffer, and was able to come out of that period with renewed strength, in part because of who he is, because of Tipper, and because he really did put our country first in December of 2000, and then after 9/11, and certainly with fight against global warming. You have to really admire that about him.

[welshTerrier2]

29. here's a link to the transcript ...

http://transcripts.cnn.com/TRANSCRIPTS/0606/13/lkl.01.html

anyone know if there's an online video available?

[snappyturtle]

30. Repeat show?

Doesn't Larry King repeat two or three of the week's episodes over the weekends? Just a thought--TIVO it?

[Toots]

31. Republicans have already labeled Gore as "Chicken Little"

Running around raving like a lunatic that the world is ending. They bring up his book that he wrote many years ago and how all his dire predictions have yet to come to pass and all he wants to do is terrify people. They have it down how to belittle people. The one thing Republicans are experts at is belittling people and hateful behavior.

[bdamomma]

46. the republicans or neo cons

have nothing else better to do to smear good men.

[AtomicKitten]

33. I love Al Gore.

I may have mentioned that 16,000 times or so.

[DesertRat]

36. Me too.

Kick for President Gore! :kick:

[Larkspur]

34. Does anyone have a clip of the show online?

I didn't see it on Crooks and Liars this morning.

[NYCGirl]

35. There's a clip on this page from CNN (but it's only about 6 minutes):

http://www.cnn.com/CNN/Programs/larry.king.live/

You can see how great Pres. Gore looks, though!

[otohara]

37. I "heart" Al Gore

thanks for posting, I missed this.

[Cha]

42. Thanks, NYCGirl!

I just sent that link to a friend of mine..Gore looks and sounds Amazing! I liked the "Chinese symbol for crisis" thing!

[danimich1]

41. I was sick watching it - such a reminder that he was the president.

After the supreme court annointed B* as president, I turned off the tv. I couldn't watch what was happening to my country. I didn't turn it on again until I got a phone call on 9/11 to see what next horrifying act had occurred in our country. I rarely watch it now, and last night was just a sick reminder of what we lost. I can only hope that he runs again, and that the corporate media doesn't ruin it again for us.

[Cha]

43. The corporatemedia isn't

going to change..we have to work around them and right through them!

Welcome to DU..and don't despair..you're in a LOT of Good company!

[bdamomma]

45. It is so nice to hear someone who can speak

with truth, honesty and passion. And Gore does look very good.
