Joe Biden: Supreme Court was wrong; Al Gore was elected president of the United States
The Examiner ^ | 6/12/13 | Charlie Spiering

Posted on 06/12/2013 10:15:25 AM PDT by illiac

Vice President Joe Biden praised former Vice President Al Gore, who was present during a fundraiser for Massachusetts Senate Candidate Ed Markey, asserting that Gore had actually won the the 2000 presidential election.

With characteristic hyperbole, Biden introduced the former Vice President while praising his political career.

“This man was elected president of the United States of America,” Biden said according to the pool report. “No, no, no. He was elected president of the United States of America. But for the good of the nation, when the bad decision in my view was made, he did the right thing for the nation.”

Biden, a potential 2016 candidate for president, praised Gore’s decision to accept the Supreme Court’s decision and walk away from the presidency.

Back when he had his aneurysm surgery, the brain surgeons told Biden that he had less than a 50% chance of being normal quote-unquote . . . looks like the estimate can go as low as one pleases.

So you mean there was a possibility that Gore would have ignored the Supreme Court decision ?

We REALLY dodged a bullet with Gore!

I believe that we would've been bankrupt by now, sitting in the dark and freezing to death in the winter, besides being 700 trillion dollars in debt due to man-bear-pig’s nutty environazism.

Well, then. If that’s the case, G.W.B. is eligible to run again for President.

Can we ever see liberals get over the 2000 election?

And, can we ever state the true facts of that case? The Supreme Court did NOT select Bush as president. The Court put a stop to the endless recounting of the votes in Florida, as a violation of equal protection as applied to vote counting. The Court got involved because lawsuits were filed by Democrats in the first place.

The liberals always act as if the Supreme Court picked our president, when in reality, they were deciding lawsuits over vote counting procedures.

And, if somehow the Court had ruled that recounts would have continued inFlorida, and the end result was Gore winning, liberals would not constantly bring up what happened with courts involved with an election.

Liberals are only happy with court intervention if Democrats win, such as court intervention in Washington’s governor election recount, and the Al Franken Senate election recount in Minnesota.

Look on the plus side: what these anti-Republic fools are accomplishing, exposing those who need to be weeded out of the gene pool, would remain hidden for decades without the help of fools like Biden and little barry bastard boy’s henchgoons. IF the Republic rises again after the coming collapse, we’ll know what weeds look like fer shur.

Biden is a court jester, a shiny object, meant to distract and divert citizens from the volumenous spew of corruption emanating from the White Hut.

Ignore this buffoon. Keep your eyes on the real issues.

Except Gore wasn’t.

If Florida had done a partial recount that Gore demanded (only a few heavily Democrat counties), he would have lost.

In a full recount, he would have “won” only under some very liberal recounting standards, which were made without any opportunity to challenge the standard or individual ballots. It was so close, there is no way to predict the outcome.
