No, he did not advise that Bush drop a Patriot missile, though by now the current US president has to be wondering why he shouldn't just gather all his critics in a box and do just that. Former US Vice President Al Gore, who had early on decided not to run for President in 2004, has advised the man who now holds the seat of power that he needs to rescind the Patriot Act. Wired quotes "They have taken us much farther down the road toward an intrusive, 'big brother'-style government -- toward the dangers prophesied by George Orwell in his book 1984 -- than anyone ever thought would be possible in the United States of America," Now to be fair Gore only echo's what a lot of people, including myself, have been saying for a long time now, but it is good to see such a public figure come out against the law that begins the end.
