When we do our rounds of thank you's to Senators, let's not forget Al Gore who jump-started this whole process. His speech on Martin Luther King, Jr. Day was truly the catalyst for the groundswell that happened the past couple of weeks. While not the success we hoped for, it is a valiant beginning, and I for one am grateful to him for speaking the truth. Originally from Mass, I could not be prouder of Kerry and Kennedy, but Gore also is a hero here.
My apologies if this does not constitute a diary for some. I do not post diaries often - just don't have the time to do them justice - but my computer cannot handle the threads when there are more than 75 comments and I could not go to bed with out giving Al a shout out.
