when the GOre election decision came back the MSM tooted the decision as 5=4. The actual decision was 7-2. The 5-4 vote was on the procedural part...(BTW dad got both of them correct as the VCP that supported the decision)

Well, no. The per curiam decision was 7 to 2 and held that the Florida Supreme Court violated President Bush's 14th Amendment rights to equal protection. But the meat of the matter, the 5 to 4 decision, was the ruling that no alternative method for counting the votes could be implemented before the Florida time limit ran out. It's all here in the Decision.

And we'll see how your Dad does on Berg v Obama, et.al.
