If dimpled chads defeat the U.S Navy votes, Fla is one sorry state and this is one sorry country. Outrageous!

So when there are Bush voters confused by standards set forth by Federal Elections law they aren't "rocket scientist" but voters confused by an illegal ballot in Palm Beach are "idiots". Reminds me of the other great Bush double standards: States rights champion suing in Federal court to overturn a state statute OR sign a law in Texas that prefers hand counts and allows dimpled chads to be counted but then complain about Florida counties using his own state's standards. Bush is the hypocrites dream candidate. Thomas Spencer, a Miami attorney for Bush, said the GOP legal team would weigh whether to sue this weekend. ``One of the problems with those ballots is it is so difficult under Florida and federal law that you almost have to be a rocket scientist to comply,'' he said.
