galenrox said:So how would Gore saying something that's main effect is making people more accepting of American citizens, and thus less wanting to kill them, meet the clear and present danger test?
fooligan said:No, it isn't.

Paladin said:What you are citing is the Sedition Act, not sedition. The Act proclaimed an act of sedition was illegal. When it was repealed, it did not change the definition. You said that Gore was certainly guilty of sedition, not in violation of a repealed act.

Gore was certainly guilty of sedition, not in violation of a repealed act.

galenrox said:Well Al Gore is a lot more liberal than I am, and I agree that he misstated the facts about Gitmo.
But you're ignoring the most important part.
galenrox said:Well Al Gore is a lot more liberal than I am, and I agree that he misstated the facts about Gitmo.
But you're ignoring the most important part. What he does in exhibit that most people in the United States are just as dedicated to preventing this **** and they are, and thus the government's actions do not justify the killing of American citizens. Although not everyone will take it as this, the problem with terrorism isn't the crazies, because they're gonna blow themselves up either way, but instead the more reasonable people who live in echo chambers that tell them that all Americans are out to jail muslims, and telling them that we don't actually makes America significantly safer, and since Gore's statements in no way imply that the government should be overthrown, especially since it's not even aimed at American citizens, who are the only ones with the ability to overthrow the American government, well, you get the point.
Captain America said:The newsman reported tonight that, according to global opinion, only one country rates worse than the US. That country was Iran. You suppose it's something Gore said? Or maybe it's Clinton's fault? Any ideas?
fooligan said:The newsman was an idiot, guided by sloppy polls. :roll:
Captain America said:To a rightwing extremist, bad mouthing Bush is as treasonous as blasphemy is to the religious quacks.
But still, Gore sucking up and patronizing to the Arabs shows a lack of character in my opinion. We don't owe those people anything.
jamesrage said:Politicians are supposed to kissing the asses of us tax payers.
They our bitches not the suadis,not mexico's and not the terrorist.
tumbleweed said:Isn't Al Gore a private citizen? He can say what he likes. I'm not aware of any public reaction to his speech, say like a riot or a camel stampede. They should at least burn one of our embassys in protest of his statements.Even then I doubt they could call it treason.
Find one instance of someone who was inspired to become a violent Islamist based on the power of Gore's speech, or Durbin's.easyt65 said:What do you want, the body of the dead soldier that gets killed from one of these muslim radicals that get fired up by Gore's speech and kills one of our guys?
Captain America said:Well, I agree with you on one point for sure. Gore can kiss my arse.
So, Gore is still on the taxpayer's payroll? I thought he worked for some college somewhere? What office is he currently holding? I must of missed that somewhere. Man, do I need to get up to date around here or what? You folks must think I live in a cave not knowing what office Gore holds these days. I need some schoolin' huh?
jamesrage said:He is not holding a office,but he is former vice president.I would imagine that he is still recieving benifits from that position.Everything he has now is a direct result of his political career.We the tax payers did not give him these things so he can kiss the asses of the Saudis and terrorist.
