This is no surprise to those who've been following the commission's work. Under Berry's direction, the Civil Rights Commission published an utterly fallacious finding about the 2000 election in Florida, concluding that "countless Floridians ... were denied their right to vote."

When Commissioners Russell Redenbaugh and Abigail Thernstrom issued a minority report showing, among other things, that the commission had not interviewed a single Floridian who was denied the opportunity to vote, Berry ruled that the minority report could not be considered an official commission document because they had used the services (free) of a scholar named John Lott. It was not permitted, Berry asserted, to use the services of outside analysts -- even for free.

And this commission did not change a bit under Bush's first term...

Well, maybe, we'll see some changes this time around. I know how frustrating it is to watch absolute idiots make the rules. I have been known to throw objects at TV's during roundtable discussions.

Poor TV, it isn't its' fault.
