AL LIES, FLORIDA EDITION

NY POST ^ | 11-21-02 | GEORGE F. WILL

[KLT]

AL Gore is back, breathing fire and revising history. His fire - that Bush's economic policy is "catastrophic" and his foreign policy goal is world domination - is harmless. His revisionism is not.

Well. Everyone is entitled to his own opinion, but not his own facts. Gore's historical fiction demands refutation.

[Go Gordon]

Also that the election disaster for the dems was because it is nice to have the Prez on your side during an election.

You mean like being the sitting Vice President and losing an election because you couldn't even carry your home state? What a friggin loser (Gore, not you)

[anniegetyourgun]

What a wonderful campaign strategy. I hope he will employ that tactic. In fact, I hope the DEMS will take it on global scale and hold their convention in secret with no press allowed. Furthermore, just think of the savings on ads, PR, and costly large events.

A picture of the new little woman behind big Goron!

WE VILL WHIP AND TAX THEIR A$$ES UNTIL THEY SMILE AND SAY "THANK YOU!"

[KLT]

[KLT]

"Everyone is entitled to his own opinion, but not his own facts."

One of the great all time quotes... especially as it applies to Democrat lies. Will hit the mark with this one.

I also noticed that there were a number of subtle attacks on the Constitution, namely the provision that the Present must be born in the U.S. in the Sundy paper.

Actually, I believe that George Will wrote, last week, that this provision of the Constitution should be changed. I disagree, wholeheartedly.

[jackbill]

Gore bears the burden of demonstrating why superior legitimacy would have attached to the result that Florida's court strained to achieve than to the result the U.S. court sealed.

Not only Gore, but also all of the whiney assed C-SPAN callers and other liberals who call President Bush the "selected President". This statement says it all, as far as I am concerned.

[uncbob]

When the election ended with George Bush 537 votes ahead, Gore initiated litigation that placed the U.S. Supreme Court in this dilemma:
It could either allow Florida's Supreme Court, composed entirely of Democratic appointees, to decide the presidency with a series of decisions which revised Florida election law in ways favorable to Gore, or it could restrain Florida's court, thereby seeming to act politically. The U.S. court was forced into this controversy by the Constitution, which empowers state legislatures to set election laws. Florida's Supreme Court breezily dismissed the Legislature's deadlines for counting votes and certifying results as "hypertechnical reliance upon statutory provisions."

AHEM
And in the aftermath the SCOTUS was so brow beaten by the liberal media and democrat spin meisters that they wimped and wussed out under the same situation in NJ.

George Will ought to mention that small detail

The talking points always skip right over the SCOFLA. Imagine!

[Alamo-Girl]

Thanks for the heads up!

Another small detail...in every Flor-a-DUH lib newspaper poll...Bush won every one...Didn't hear the big news about that...did we? RAT spin...that's all we get!

One of the great all time quotes... especially as it applies to Democrat lies. Will hit the mark with this one.

Oh yeah, that quote is a keeper! For sure!

A must read and not to be forgotten:

"Explicit statistical evidence of massive ballot tampering in Palm Beach, Fl."
Published: 09 November, 2000 Author: Robert A. Cook, PE

Robert Cook presents here a remarkable statistical analysis of the Palm Beach presidential ballot controversy that deserves serious investigation. He says that the controversial 19,120 Presidential race ballots at issue there were "destroyed by deliberate double-punching ballots in Palm Beach County FL with a 'second punch' for Al Gore or Pat Buchanan. (In 1996, an additional 15,000 Dole and Perot ballots were destroyed by double-punching presidential ballots in Palm Beach County, FL. *)

Long and technical but worth the read.

[lepton]

seven of the nine U.S. Supreme Court justices - including Stephen Breyer, a Clinton appointee, and David Souter, another member of the court's liberal faction - agreed that the Florida court's terms for ordering a statewide manual recount of undervotes violated the constitutional guarantees of due process and equal protection of the laws.

And Ginsburg agreed that the SCOFLA was wrong, and the remaining Justice, avoided the issue and argued that it was rude to smack down the SCOFLA so publicly.

Good article that should be used by anyone interviewing Gore in the future.

[Redbob]
