Time of war has nothing to do with the whole hanging chad thing. Like you said, the election that they are whining about was SEVEN years ago and for those not keeping up with current events, we had one about three years ago that would seem to say "LET IT GO". Right or wrong, since we've had another election its time to move on. Believe me, no one at this point is going to say look at what we think happened and put Al Gore in as the default President. Democrats should be concentrating on 2008, not 2000!

Accuse your enemy of stealing when you are stealing from them. After Gore conceded the night of the election someone told him we can steal this election, our followers will defend anything we do.

When all the votes were counted Bush won Florida. Gore only wanted to count in counties he could steal in.

Gore and his operatives refused as many military votes they could get away with, all ridiculous technicalities.

Gore, Kerry and the Clinton's have no respect for the men and women serving our country. The Dems are rooting against them and want to lose the war so they can take complete power and control of the government.

Bush DID cheat the elections and it WAS during a time of war, which of course was caused by Bush CHEATING the evidence against Saddam Hussein.

I think the Liberals are the only people who hold American values close to heart.

The rest of America can waste their energy supporting an imperial cause they don't even understand-- not just because they are naturally stupid, but because they don't even care to learn the truth about what's really going on in America.

I think if cheating in an election was that easy for a supposed mental midget like George Bush, the liberals/Dems would have won all the elections (they're much smarter, right?).

“The vote total was certified by Florida's secretary of state, Katherine Harris, head of the Bush campaign in Florida, on behalf of Gov. Jeb Bush, the candidate's brother.” Mark Zoller Seitz, “Bush Team Conveyed an Air of Legitimacy,” San Diego Union-Tribune, December 16, 2000.

The Florida Department of State awarded a $4 million contract to the Boca Raton-based Database Technologies Inc. (subsidiary of ChoicePoint). They were tasked with finding improperly registered voters in the state’s database, but mistakes were rampant. “At one point, the list included as felons 8,000 former Texas residents who had been convicted of misdemeanors.” St. Petersburg Times (Florida), December 21, 2003.


Database Technologies, a subsidiary of ChoicePoint, “was responsible for bungling an overhaul of Florida’s voter registration records, with the result that thousands of people, disproportionately black, were disenfranchised in the 2000 election. Had they been able to vote, they might have swung the state, and thus the presidency, for Al Gore, who lost in Florida. Oliver Burkeman, Jo Tuckman, “Firm in Florida Election Fiasco Earns Millions from Files on Foreigners,” The Guardian, May 5, 2003 http://www.guardian.co.uk/usa/story/0,12271,949709,00.html. See also, Atlanta-Journal-Constitution, May 28, 2001.

“The review found that the result would have been different if every canvassing board in every county had examined every undervote, a situation that no election or court authority had ordered. Gore had called for such a statewide manual recount if Bush would agree, but Bush rejected the idea and there was no mechanism in place to conduct one.” Martin Merzer, “Review of Ballots Finds Bush's Win Would Have Endured Manual Recount,” Miami Herald, April 4, 2001.

Gore was the one who tried to 'steal' the election. The liberals mentality is that they cannot see/believe anyone would vote for any other party, so when a Republican wins, they then claim that there was voter fraud.

Another jingo consumed by all the big old bad old war. Nothing on earth matters but Georgie's little war. Tyrany at any time is anti-American. You seem to be advocating tyrany rather than democracy.

Here is a good quote from one of your idols explaining your position so everyone will understand it:

Hermann Goering, second in command of the Third Reich and key founder of the Nazi party, said; “Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism, and exposing the country to greater danger”.

Now lets look at what some have to say about patriotism:

Ben Franklin quote
"Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety."
The price of freedom is eternal vigilance.
Thomas Jefferson (1743-1826)

Edward Abbey, Patriotism quotes:
A patriot must always be ready to defend his country against his government.

Declaration of Independence, Patriotism quotes:
But, when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same object, evinces a design to reduce them under absolute despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such government, and to provide new guards for their future security.

Dwight D. Eisenhower, Patriotism quotes:
Here in America we are descended in spirit from revolutionaries and rebels -- men and women who dare to dissent from accepted doctrine.

Thomas Jefferson, Patriotism quotes:
God forbid we should ever be twenty years without such a rebellion. The people cannot be all, and always, well informed. The part which is wrong will be discontented, in proportion to the importance of the facts they misconceive. If they remain quiet under such misconceptions, it is lethargy, the forerunner of death to the public liberty. ... And what country can preserve its liberties, if it's rulers are not warned from time to time, that this people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to the facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time, with the blood of patriots and tyrants. It is its natural manure.

And finally one last quote:

Sidney Hook, Patriotism quotes:
To silence criticism is to silence freedom.

Definition of treason: a crime that undermines the offender's government; disloyalty by virtue of subversive behavior
treachery; an act of deliberate betrayal.

I think their behavior exposed their underlying immaturity. How many times, as children, have we won a game only to have the loosers yell, "Well, she cheated!"

It's sour grapes from a group of people who refuse to believe their great leader "The Goracle" lost. After all he is the great and all knowing Al Bore,it was his right to win. Guess they should have put down the bong long enough to figure out how to properly fill out a ballot.

They've been harping that same old tired tune since W trounced Fat Albert. They just can't get over the fact that Gore lost and W won. It went all the way to the Supreme Court and not once did anyone find in Gore's favor. Libs only like courts when they find in favor of libs.
