Meanwhile he tried to keep American servicemen's votes from counting. In other words, he was the scum of the earth.
He DID keep military service member's votes from counting. The certified vote count to this day has never included those ballots that were thrown out. Also, all of the subsequent recounts conducted by newspapers etc never did include those military ballots. Isn't it strange that the media never talks about that?

I’ve been chatting with FR’s favorite global warming acolyte in e-mails. It’s amazing that a person can close their minds to the illogic of their arguments. I’ve been reading ‘State of Fear’. I’ve always been somewhat critical of Michael Crichton’s characters because I find them flat. I had trouble believing the characters of the global warming extremists in that novel but sadly, Crichton nailed them. My conversations showed an almost paranoid level of belief in man made global warming.
My point is that after my e-mail conversations, what I really find distressing is that real science, and there is such a thing, is denigrated by the alchemy-like predictions of global warming advocates.
Rather than earning the respect of peers and non scientists such as myself, scientists will be held in the same regard as used car salesmen and lawyers. Whatever ‘theory’ they are advocating will always be examined in light of who paid them for the research, not the science involved.
Good job though global warming advocates, on taking a golden age of reason and reducing it back to a dark age of superstition.

And CNN is airing a special on Global Warming but calling it something like “Climate Change Our World In Crisis” (that is not the actual title just saw it advertised) and dismissed it by saying crap!

Speaking of OSC, I wish they’d hurry up and make a movie of Ender’s Game.
To: Tolik
I’m not even sure that most of the global warming alarmists really believe in it. I think they are using it as a scam to facilitate their internationalist political agenda. Further down the chain of command, I think it’s just something they use to bash Bush with, and to evade the real threat of Islamic terrorism, which they don’t have the stomach to face. They’d rather deal with a made-up problem than a real one.

This is interesting. I had understood that Orson Scott Card was a long time Democrat, and many of his earlier writings support this. This column makes him sound like nothing of the sort.

This guy’s good. Every paragraph is a 2 line sentence, and each sentence can stand on its own as a gem of factual content. As a whole, the article is greater than the sum of its parts. BUMP

hen he was President Clinton's pet veep, treated with genial contempt, which he earned by his incompetence at running even an inconsequential office like that. Then he tried to steal an election by a highly selective recount in the most Democratic counties in Florida – while accusing the befuddled Republicans of his own corrupt plan. Meanwhile he tried to keep American servicemen's votes from counting. In other words, he was the scum of the earth. Why oh why do not all Republican's talk like this all the time?
