The same court that was slaped for playing politics with their ridiclous recount ruling. What a joke.
"... which halted recounts of contested ballots in Florida after a weeks-long draw."
Lie! Bush won on election day and Al Gore put the nation through hell because he is a sore loser.
Florida voting officials have proved to be highly partisan, brazenly violating a basic need for an unbiased and universally trusted authority to manage all elements of the electoral process.
Duh! And the counties with the most problems are the Dem ones where they tortured every recounted ballot until it confessed a vote for Gore.
One difference I've seen between our elections and many foreign ones that need to be observed is that the foreign ones often require thumb- or fingerprints with an indelible ink to prevent multiple votes and provide proof of ID. The election officials can't even ask for a $%##^ ID from a voter, much less a thumbprint. If we were to have ID requirements, that would cut into the Dem vote fraud so Jimmah won't even discuss that.
Isn't there a hammer calling this guy somewhere?
It seems Cahtuh is throwing a tantrum because convicts' and non-residents' illegal votes are thrown out in Florida.
Carter is banking on his undeserved reputation as a moderate, conciliatory, and unbiased mediator. In truth he is as partisan as they come. With this editorial he wishes to do nothing but stack the deck in favor of the Democrats and bemoan superficial complaints about Republicans having an unfair (implying illegal) advantage in Florida.
The Democrats are cracking up! Everything they talk about is negative bordering on paranoia. I really think this party is on the way out. It is disgusting that they would even promote him as a leader of the party. The worst president of the 20th century!
Jimma is the eternal hypocrite: screaming for democracy all over the planet, but in favor of restricting people like Nader from getting on the ballot in Florida. Of course, we all know why he wants Nader off the ballot: because he might sap votes from his fellow lefty, Monsieur Kerry.
Jimma's botched foreign policy in the late 70s leaves us a legacy of Iranian-based Islamic fundamentalism (which led to 9-11), along with the forthcoming birth of Iran as a nuclear power. He was and is a disaster.
Jimma, stick to building houses and stop trying to bring yet more harm to this nation and to the world.
I still haven't figured out what the problem was with those punch-card ballots. We use them in Illinois all the time, and while we certainly have some interesting elections, I've never heard any of their problems attributed to the ballot design.
Someone's trying to "jimmy" the election process. I wouldn't be surprised to find one of our x-presidents behing the CBS debacle. With this outrageous statement, Carter just put himself as a questionable player in the fraudulent docs at CBS.
Back when he was president I used to think that Carter was a well-intentioned fool.
Since then I have concluded that he is a malignant fool.
He never saw a dictator he didn't like.
He gave North Korea the Bomb.
He gave Iran to the Ayatollahs.
He tried to ensure that Saddam would get Kuwait and that the Sandanistas would still rule in Nicaragua. It's not his fault that he failed to do it. He tried very hard.
democrats are planning on cheating again? Why is this news?
My Carter-To-English dictionary says:
"Unfair Vote" = "Bush Victory Outside The Democrat's Ability To Manipulate It".
Carter is just sad.
He just wiggles those scary eyebrows up and down and spits out his leftists pablem. He and John Kerry (who can't wiggle anything above his eyes) are the same guy.
He is pathetic.
Here's the truth...Florida did not have any more voting irregularities than are prevalent in all states.
It's just that ALgore decided to make Florida his battleground.
Anybody that uses any machinery to vote has under and overvotes.
The people counting the votes and the dems decided that everybody ALWAYS votes properly and that is simply not the case.
The Dems will be able to find the same problems in any state they want to contest...it's just the nature of voting...it's always been this way, but not until Algore and the Dems decided to make an issue of it did it become the "norm."
And from then on, contested elections will be the norm. Even the Dems in their primary in Florida had irregularities and that had nothing to do with disenfranchisement or partisan politics. There is no such thing as a perfect election or EVERY VOTE BEING COUNTED.
Mr. MALAISE opens his stupid mouth yet again. Keep it up Jimmuh
Anyone want to fathom a guess what the MSM's reporting would be like today if such drivel had poured forth from the mouth of Bush-41?
Yes, I'm dreaming. But it can be done if enough people get tired of having non-citizens and non-producers vote themselves ever-increasing shares of OPM. <./rant>
