Ahhh, what a nice contrast to most of the screaming and alarums and excursions!

Eat it, Big Al!

Didn’t Al Gore just come out last week and make a statement to the effect he would invade other countries for their own good? He would have invaded Iraq.

Al Gore was a little too clever. His plan was for a recount in the three most heavily Democrat counties. Turns out these were also the three counties most likely to have people foolish enough to throw away their vote by giving it to Ralph Nader.

After the dust settled, some news group (AP?) finished the hand count in those three counties and discovered that Al indeed narrowly.lost.

1. The FSC ruled for a statewide recount, but did not set any counting rules. So, for example, one county might count a one-point chad as a vote and another might disqualify it.

2. That is an equal protection violation. Since the 1960's the USSC has mandated that every vote in a state election must have the same weight as every other vote.

3. The USSC vote on equal protection, the key issue, was 7-2, but the media suppressed that. The 5-4 vote was whether to allow the FSC to try one more time to get it right or not. The majority said there wasn't enough time for them to try again and meet the Constitutional deadline.

4. After it was all over a group of MSM types, like NYT, WashPost, the big networks, did a freedom of information act request for every Florida ballot cast and had a Big 8 accounting firm do a simulated recount. They tried every method proposed by the Gore campaign and every time Bush won.

5. And that did not count the military votes the Gore campaign got county clerks to throw out. When Bush was declared the winner, the lawsuit to reinstate the military votes was dismissed. In my opinion they would have won - what Gore did was despicable.

6. The claim Gore really won the election is another leftist myth. Demonstrably false.

Libs like to say W was "selected" President by SCOTUS, but if SCOTUS had ruled for algore and he had won, then he would have "been selected"!! So being "selected" isn't the "problem", it's just a strawman argument libs love to toss around.

Liberalism is a mental disease.

Which means that in Democrats’ eyes, it wasn’t a fair election. A fair election is one they win.
