Master, Americans have looked ridiculous to the rest of the world for years. This entire episode is a farce. In one breath, Daley, Christopher and crew talk about the need to get the fair vote. All votes should be counted to get a clear representation of the peoples intent. Then when the issue of a recount in the pro-republican counties is mentioned as being too late by law, he snipes; too bad, they had their chance. This entire election has become a joke. At least some people in FLA are coming to their senses. tp

You in Canada mistaken technique for the spirit, and I also think that you suffer a little inferiority complex. So, first get over it. I got call from overseas friend who laugh at us, but also understand Democracy in play.

Go preach to people who are not allowed to vote, people who saw their ballot boxes stolen, or stuffed. Tell it to people in China, Cuba, or Serbia. We will endure this problem, and fix it once we realize what to do.

your saturday night live reference reminded me of what Carl Reiner said after gore retracted his concession....viz.: if a hollywood scriptwriter had conjured up such a surreal (being euphemistic here) denouement, he would have been LAUGHED right out of the screenwriter's guild!

This just in: Gore's legal team has decided to ask for the sealing of all polling places in Fl. in order to go in and find all the spent chads. They believe they can determine their fate by counting spent chads and comparing them to the ballots. If the chad count doesn't match the ballot count...they been chad. Or there has been a chad highjacking and they've been flown to the country of Chad. This could chadder their hopes of a win.

Oh I wish I chaddn't said that.
