Searching for significance and finding none. That’s just sad.

[Cincinatus' Wife]

Well played.

Wonderful “rant.”

His face in post #1 looks vaguely familiar.

Didn't he play the lead role in that 50's movie, "The Undead"?

Poor math teacher should do some history, instead of trying to rewrite it

Lies, damned lies, and statistics?

[Georgia Girl 2]

Because BearPigMan would have been so much better. LOL!

"I am so sorry my work stopped the Florida recount<"

Actually, it was the 14th Amendment that stopped the recount. The Supreme Court ruled 7-2 that equal protection was not being followed by Palm Beach County Democrat election officials in the counting of ballots.

Basically , he is one ignorant effer.

Liberal fascists always try to redefine history, and shame on us for letting them get away with it.Letting the left get away with redefining history was GW Bush’s greatest sin.

And this describes how it was done:

"I’ll bet the Obama presidency was your fault, too."

No, that was another "butterfly effect."

In chaos theory, the butterfly effect is the sensitive dependence on initial conditions in which a small change in one state of a deterministic nonlinear system can result in large differences in a larger state. In other words, a butterfly flapping its wings in Texas can cause later a typhoon in the Japanese Sea.

Think about it, in mid-20th Century America an 18 year old pot smoking hippie freshman slut in a Honolulu college has sex with an older Kenyan politician on a student visa, who has a wife and child back in Africa, and from this "roll in the hay" comes the collapse and dissolution of America in the 21st Century.

The bottom line was that the real problem in Florida in 2000 involved thousands of votes that weren't cast properly, not votes that weren't counted properly.

As I have said many times since 2000 ...

If there was even a remote chance in hell that Al Gore had actually won the 2000 election, he would have spent four years biding his time and would have been a strong favorite to win in 2004. He sure as hell would have been a more formidable candidate than that Frankenstein-looking jackass from Massachusetts.

Gore's disappearance from public office after his loss against George W. Bush spoke volumes of what he knew happened in 2000.

Bush owes the 2000 election to Elian Conzalez

[Alberta's Child]

Thanks. LOL.

"...they believed that if there were only enough recounts he would eventually win? Where does one's mind have to be to actually believe that?"

Apparently, it has to be in Minnesota where they recounted and recounted until Al Franken won.

He looks like Larry but not Curly or Moe...

[Captain Peter Blood]

Then if you feel this badly and have a guilty conscience may I suggest a cup of Hemlock and get it over with.

He even looks more like Riff Raff from Rocky Horror Picture Show.

I’m sure he voted for Obama so can I blame him for that?
