You truly are an idiot.
 
ELFenix, all the more reason to be disgusted. It does not change the fact that Gore won, however. Unlike some here, the truth of your remark hasn't and doesn't excape me. The facts speak for themselves. Let the chips fall where they may. What do people accomplish by lying to themselves? I ask, but of course I know. The need to identify with a party a country etc, it's all about hating oneslef, not knowing it because of the pain, and identifying with some substitute to achieve vicarious glory. Thats why I get the hate when I poke there. 😀 It's just more evidence that I'm right. People don't just have buttons for no reason.

hell, due to different types of voting machines an accidental vote may be obvious to whoever is doing the examining using one type of machine and inscrutable using another type. the only way to get an accurate count would be public roll call votes with 5 sets of eyes watching to make sure the vote is recorded correctly. the system simply isn't made for close counts with so many votes.

In the future, one would hope that Florida adopts a "run off" election policy for ultra-close decisions such as this one. In such an election, they should drop the third-party canidates who got less than 5% of the vote, and only have the two parties with the most votes on the ballot. It's the only way to remove all doubt in the election results, and would hopefully keep people from complaining about the outcome of the election in the distant future.
 
My question is will Sausage Heart Cheney live long enough to serve another term as Vice Prez? If he were to croak would Dubya appoint Herr Asscroft as VP?

'0' year curse
wtf is that ?

Starting back in 1840, every president elected in a year ending with the number 0 died in office. The exception was Reagan, who was elected in 1980. He was shot, but lived, and is said to have broken the curse.

It is also called the 20 year curse.

Don't count your chickens before they hatch! I bet Dubbya still keeps pretzels around the house.

lol..herr asscroft..sig heil!
 
Fact of matter is, even if the economy was booming, our country is well protected,
and have great foreign policies during GW, it won't matter to those who hate GW or Republicans,
they will find some faults, no matter what. Haters will always be haters.
 
Haters will always be haters
True. All you have to do is go back to the eight years Clinton was President to see that. Hell the Haters (Republicans in this case) went as far as to try and prevent a boy being reunited with his father because they hated Clinton so much.

It really is about the economy. GWB is going to have to move if it does not show signs of real recovery in six months.

since its a presidential election i think it would have to be a federal run off, not just state by state. i don't think thats a good solution though. it gives people who didn't vote but were disatisfied with the original outcome much power. if they'd wanted to affect the outcome they should have voted in the first place.
