Funny you should mention myopic. I got banned because I questioned someone who made the standard "Bush stole the election" rant. I merely asked them what, exactly, Bush did to steal the election, pointing out that many organizations went into Florida afterward and every count showed Bush the winner. All I got was a lot of "shut the f#%k up"s and similar intelligent responses.
I actually had been wanting to ask that question for a while because I'm really interested in how the left justifies their "stolen election" idea. But there is no thought process, just repeating a rant. They really, honestly don't have a clue.

Bush stole the election = an array of things
1. street barricades on election day
2. minorities bullied away from the polling booth
3. fighting the recounts which were of course the only way since the election was a "tie"
4. Buchanan's mistake votes should have been counted for Gore.
5. Supreme Court could have allowed the last recounts in progress, or at least given them one more chance.
There is no reason for them to lend credence to the after-the-fact recounts. And wasn't there one configuration that favored Gore?
