A l Gore, want to count the votes of the county's that were to his benefit in Florida and that were to his benefit only. He was going to sway the entire election to his benefit by counting only the votes that were for Al Gore and the supreme Court stopped Al Gore from steeling the 2000 presidential election.

No they didn't; the congress has never to my knowledge rejected a states electoral vote. Some of the democrats might have voted against it; but I'm not even sure if that happened.

No, the Senate validated the electoral vote. Several House members pleaded with the Senate to not, but with fifty votes on either side of the aisle, it would have been left to the President of the Senate (aka, Vice-President Al Gore) to vote and either vote himself into or out of office. He has said he felt this would be a bad position to put himself in, so he asked no Democrats to support the House members' appeals.
That is how George W. Bush became our President.

No the Congress did not but the Supreme Court ruled to end the recount. GBW became President by default.

Congress never got the chance to decide. The re-count was stopped by the Supreme Court.

No. They just discounted enough democratic votes to tie up the electoral vote. And we Americans stood for this travesty (I really meant to say s h it) for two terms. Shame on us.

Nope. In fact most recounts of Florida say that Bush won narrowly.
