MoveOn Morons Hype Gore Bore!

From one of my nearly forgotten email accounts:
To: xxxxxxxxxx
Subject: Gore speaks out on Freedom

Dear MoveOn Member,

In June, twenty thousand MoveOn members interviewed each other by phone to help us explore the values underlying our work together.
Call Guinness, it's a circle jerk record!
One striking theme emerged: the deep concern Americans have with the Bush administration's attacks on our cherished liberties, in the name of security.
Yikes, the button-down shirted thugs must be everywhere!
Since June, we've been looking for a powerful way to respond to this clear mandate, and when former Vice President Gore asked us to co-host a policy address on Freedom and Security, we jumped at the chance.
The ankle biters swell with pride when the celebs notice, even if it is Big Weird Al looking for a handout.
You are invited to view this important speech on Sunday, November 9 at 2pm EASTERN by web cast, or on Link TV.
I've mentioned Link TV before under it's old name WorldLink TV. If you have never seen it, think of it as al-Jazeera for leftoids. Thankfully for my blood pressure, they took it off the satellite our dish is pointed at.
In Washington DC, this event will be attended by local MoveOn members and by members of our partner in this effort, the American Constitution Society.
Mentioned them before too - "progressive lawyers".
Unfortunately, all seats for the event are filled.
Despite the button-down shirted thugs!
But we encourage you to tune in this Sunday, at 2pm Eastern, by going to: (webcast link removed)
...
In this, his third major speech on the Administration's response to terrorism, Mr. Gore will describe the Administration's assault on our civil liberties as un-American and will charge that the Bush/Ashcroft attack on the Constitution is actually a smokescreen that obscures the Administration’s fundamental failure to meaningfully protect our national security, and that their efforts have weakened rather than strengthened America.
...
See you there.
All across America, the progressive forces will defy the "Administration's assault on our civil liberties" by huddling around computers and TV sets in darkened rooms listening to the call of freedom from Big Weird Al. If they don't fall asleep.
Sincerely,

--Carrie, Eli, James, Joan, Noah, Peter, Wes, and Zack
