Yes yes yes, that dumb plan of president Bush, another dumb partisan compromise. The democrats give a tax cut President Bush shows good faith partisan cooporation by giving the democrat more defense spending. Another dumb compromise from the Texas Fox. And the whole world sees bill and hill and jesse as the dons of pardons of cons.

And don't forget all you retard recounter's that it's getting less abstract as to the fact.

This paper presents the results from a statistical analysis of the
first Florida recount. The findings indicate that it is highly
unlikely that the relative increase in Gore's vote total can be
explained by mechanical reading errors. Rather it appears
partisan biases influenced the outcome. Estimates indicate that
on average if a ballot's status changed from no vote to a vote,
the chance that it went to Gore was about 15% higher than one
would expect given his fraction of that county's vote. Overall
then, controlling for each candidate's vote in a county and the
type of ballot used, this paper estimates that Gore picked up
903 "too many" votes in the recount relative to what would have
been expected by chance machine read errors. If humans
influenced the results how did they do it? During the recount
the ballots were put through the tabulating machines several
times. However, machine readings tend to vary from run to run
and this means humans, partisan humans, have to decide which
of several tallies to report. Potentially, this discretion allowed
the preferences of those conducting the recount to impact the
reported totals.
