Dude, I'll say it again here. If you are interested if a fair vote count, you must recognize that in an election of this import, you CAN'T be fair and use a hand-count recovery of machine rejected ballots in only partisan counties.

I believe in the rule of law and that's about it. The other counties could have also demanded a recount under the terms of the law. They didn't. That includes ones where Bush lost. And in an election of this import, you want to do it in any way that is not compliant with local law? I thought you Republicans want to give the power to the States, or is that only when you think it meets with your dogma?

The quote was in reference to a satire web site whose content he disapproved of. Immediately following it, to be exact. No, if he was President sayig stuff like that, I'll start looking for cover.

fear Bush would take away free speech Not I. I think he regularly takes away comprehensible speech however<GG>

Some of the partisan wrangling over this election sounds like it comes from that crowd of folks who think WWF wrestling is real.

It looks less like a constitutional crisis than it looks like a neener-neener session between insurance agents. I keep hoping for more bikinis and beer though.
