Before I tell you where you can get your autographed copy of An Inconvenient Truth in Memphis tonight, please go on over to the sidebar and sign that petition to draft Gore for 2008. And that goes double if you are from Tennessee, cause we can kick ourselves around the block forever, or we can start making some things up to Al Gore.
Putting a few Tennessee signatures on a petition weighted down with blue staters is a beginning.
After you do that, you might want to scroll down to check out this blog's new Draft Gore shirts and bumper stickers, etc. As above, it's an especially good idea if you are in or from this red state, famed for betraying Gore!
What better way to begin to make amends than to join the ever growing clamor for Gore in 2008?
If you are in or near Memphis, you can see Al Gore tonight at Davis-Kidd Booksellers, at 5 p.m. Of course, he'll be signing his book - An Inconvenient Truth (Rodale Books, $21.95, paperback) - which has been "on The New York Times Paperback Best-Sellers list for six weeks and is No. 9 in sales on Amazon.com."
If you see him in Memphis, please tell him the country needs him and ask him to run in 2008. I think we should go with the pity angle. Ask him to take pity on this messed up country!
Speaking of the ever-growing clamor for Gore, Robyn Blumner at the St. Petersburg Times adds her voice to the calls for Al Gore to save our sorry asses in 2008 (via Suburban Guerrilla). I'm not sure we're worthy of the honor, but gawd knows we need him!
A candidate who operates with the candor, sincerity and smarts of someone not beholden to focus groups and polling data is what rank-and-file Democrats desperately want. By all accounts, Gore understands this now and would resist any reformatting by consultants.
America is ready for an adult like Gore to take charge and put the nation back on sensible footing: a footing where deficits do matter, where energy conservation is not sneered at as a “personal virtue” but is an aggressive national policy, and where science, facts and reality drive public policy, not the Christian Right’s neo-medieval agenda.
And on a final note, here's news about yet more flat-earthers out to convince the world that global warming was invented by Al Gore and some "alarmist" scientists. Hat tip to Avedon Carol over at The Sideshow.
