"The important one was whether or not the ever-changing criteria for what constituted a valid ballot violated the 14th Amendment's Equal Protection Clause. The vote was 7-2 in favor of yes (it was a violation). However, two of the 'Rat-appointed "justices" decided that that violation of the Constitution was not enough to stop the endless and fraudulent re-counts. The second vote, whether the re-counts should be stopped, was yes, 5-4."

This second vote amazed me! In essence they are saying - yes we know that we are changing the rules AFTER THE VOTE - but oh well. It's amazing that 4 justices would let each county just make their decisions ON THE FLY with no standard whatsoever. (Hey Bob - this chad is dimpled, let's just assume that the person meant to push it all the way through). Like I said - when the government starts determing the voter's "intent" - we might as well raise the hammer and sickle.

One of the best interviews I saw during the recount was between Tony Snow and some "Civil Rights" leader - (which basically means he didn't have a real job).

This guy started rambling about the usual cr@p about how people were disenfranchised and there vote for Al Gore was disqualified. And Tony Snow simply replied back to him "How do you know that?"

The guy was stunned for about 5 seconds and then started back on the same cr@p about how the chads at the bottom of the voting machine were preventing a voter from pushing the chad on his card all the way through.

EXACTLY - HOW DO YOU KNOW THAT?!! How do you know what a person with an overvote, hanging chad, dimpled chad, vote for Buchanon, ...MEANT TO DO? Are you all mind readers and can read a ballot like a tarot card. IDIOTS!

I guess there must be a precedent for this in one of those foreign laws Ruth Bader Ginsberg has been babbling about.
