Washington, DC—Republican National Committee Chairman Ed Gillespie issued the following statement on former Vice President Al Gore’s speech to MoveOn.org today in New York.

“Al Gore today engaged in political hate speech in an address to MoveOn.org, the same group which recently posted ads comparing President Bush to Adolph Hitler on their web page.”

“Instead of repudiating these tactics, Al Gore chose to embrace the vile tactics that are becoming the hallmark of the Democrat Party at its highest levels. Like the Democrat presidential candidates, Al Gore has once again chosen to use his time at the podium to attack the President rather than put forward a positive agenda of his own.”
