Maybe the misguided Eric will stop by and learn something. Florida Freepers fought the Florida Rat army and their Rat army of lawyers and liars who descended on our fair state in Rat packs. Surprise, Mr. Alterman, we didn't let you steal the election in 2000. We informed ourselves and our neighbors - since your buddies at AP and Gannett in Fla. chose to print DNC "opinion" and PR as "news".

You still don't get it. When McAuliffe lied about Florida voters again in 2002, we sent another, stronger message which you and your absolutely left-wing mainstream media peers continue to ignore.

Open your eyes, Mr. Alterman. There are hundreds of left-wing hate groups doing more than skewing polls - their clever hate campaigns are being used by Saddam and Al Qaeda to undermine not only our President, but to put you and your loved ones at greater risk from real bad guys with WMDs.

What your left-wing media left out of the 2000 election re-re-recount coverage:

While the Democrats are still blaming those Votomatic punch card machines (like the one in Palm Beach) for Gore's loss, it was Bush who was hurt in the Votomatic counties...including my Republican Lee County. Impeachment manager Bill McCollum received more votes for Senate than did George W. Bush for President in Lee, Palm Beach, Charlotte counties. Think about that. Voters voted for Bill McCollum and Al Gore?

Oh, and those "hick" counties, the "red" counties in Florida with fewer than 10,000 voters? All but one of those 22 Florida counties voted for BUSH and they are ALL Democrat-majority counties with Dem. election personnel...and ALL recounted (as did EVERY county in Florida (just not 2 or 3 times 'til ballots could be manipulated for Gore))- and the HONEST Democrats in the small Florida counties showed mostly single digit changes in the recounts, mostly insignificant. As a friend said, "my Democratic neighbors are southern Democrats with family values and they don't trust Gore."

Did you hear of a Republican* voting twice? Republican* felons voting in large blocks? Republican* illegal immigrants? Republicans* in nursing homes and hospitals "helping" incompetent patients vote? Republicans* adding non-resident names to the voting rosters at the polling locations? Republicans* poking holes in ballots/ eating chads? Writing books about recounts and how to win elections by manipulating ballots? Did Republicans* have a GOTV center set up in a Palm Beach law office, with "ballot protest" forms and a telecom company (a little bankrupt firm called Telequest that sold to a company from India days later for millions $$), set up in advance, as well as a team of lawyers ready to put the "recount" campaign in place? Did a Republican* lawyer lie about an Illinois "dimple decision" to the national press and in court? Did Republicans* go into the inner cities and tell the voters that George W. Bush would send them back to slavery? Did a Republican* Florida Supreme Court ignore existing state law to allow carefully selected Republican* counties recounts, and then change the laws as it was necessary to help Republicans*? Did a Republican* send a memo to every one of 67 counties - not based on Florida law - telling poll workers how to disqualify military ballots? Did Republicans* prevent over 500 Florida students from Liberty University (Jerry Falwell's school) from receiving their absentee ballots? Did Republicans* misdirect military mail? Make it exceedingly difficult for military overseas to vote? Did the Republican* press cover up the massive Dem. dirty tricks? Did a Republican* Florida elect our Republican House, Republican Governor and GHW Bush over Bill Clinton in 1992? Is the Republican* press still lying?

No.

* Democrat(s)

The false charge of "racism" was the most destructive lie of all...but of course the DNC knew exactly how that lie would play in the inner cities where they frightened young children with hateful lies. Teachers and parents had children tell them that they were terrified that President Bush would make them slaves. "Racist" Republican Bush was a topic of discussion at the UN Conference on Racism, thanks to Jesse Jackson's destructive lies and an extensive, international, post-election, DNC-press anti-Bush PR campaign.

Over 180 nations railed against the "racist" American leadership during a week of Bush-American and Israel bashing, taking home the message to their respective countries. What enemy of America wouldn't be strengthened by this display of international enmity against US? The UN "racism" conference ended two days before 9-11-01.

Sorry, guess I'm not "over it."
