Al Gore comes out of hibernation.

Yes, that is Al Gore or at least it is somebody who swallowed him . Gore spoke out against the administration's use of wiretaps w/out court order. Gore claims that W has "repeatedly and persistently" broken the law. Evidently, the man who invented the Internet forgot the Clinton administration's similar stance on the use of warrantless searches.
"The Department of Justice believes, and the case law supports, that the president has inherent authority to conduct warrantless physical searches for foreign intelligence purposes," Deputy Attorney General Jamie Gorelick testified before the Senate Intelligence Committee on July 14, 1994, "and that the President may, as has been done, delegate this authority to the Attorney General."

Tracey Schmitt, a spokeswoman for the Republican National Committee, said it best: "Al Gore's incessant need to insert himself in the headline of the day is almost as glaring as his lack of understanding of the threats facing America. While the president works to protect Americans from terrorists, Democrats deliver no solutions of their own, only diatribes laden with inaccuracies and anger."
