John, Re: The first lawsuits by the campaigns were filed by Bush. The other suits were filed by citizens. But I guess those folks were a part of the Democrat conspiracy

Of course they were filed by citizens as they are the only one who has the right to file them and do you really believe that they are not motivated by Gore camp ?

"This is a struggle for power and money, not right or wrong. If you believe the crusade for truth BS out of either camp you are a sucker"

That I agree 100%, both camps tried to play tricks to win and any talk about fairness, people's will are pure BS.

RE:"You need to take a look around Washington, they are almost all lawyers."

Bingo!

RE:"You seem to hate all lawyers, unless they work for Bush."

Not true especially if they are taken on a one by one basis.

RE:"The first lawsuits by the campaigns were filed by Bush. The other suits were filed by citizens. But I guess those folks were a part of the Democrat conspiracy?"

Those citizens lawsuits where not baited and filed by Lawyers?

RE:"Now you switch back to Gore lawyers. I repeat, Bush lawyers were the first to try to change the rules."

Depends on the rules...

RE:"You must have been born without the objectivity gene.

I'm probably the most fair individual you'd ever meet. It upsets me when one side gains an unfair advantage through clever trickery in the court system.

RE:"This is a struggle for power and money, not right or wrong. If you believe the crusade for truth BS out of either camp you are a sucker."

I seek the truth without the BS of either camp. I know there is BS in both...Bush isn't the greatest. If he wins I hope he addresses some of his failings...
I realize there is little chance of this if Gore wins

John, <The first lawsuits by the campaigns were filed by Bush. The other suits were filed by citizens. But I guess those folks were a part of the Democrat conspiracy?>

You're splitting hairs big time, John.

Just because the suits were filed by citizens doesn't mean they should be considered "non-partisan."

Just because the suits were filed by citizens doesn't mean they weren't encouraged or manipulated by the Gore campaign.

Just because the first suit by the campaigns was filed by Bush doesn't mean the Gore campaign is totally hands-off in this matter, nor does it make the actions by the Gore campaign any less detestable. (As I recall, it was Gore's lackeys who showed up in Florida first, even before the first count was finished.)

<You must have been born without the objectivity gene.>

Maybe you ought to split the McHairs on Jim's head to make sure? ;-)

John,

The other suits were filed by citizens.

There were reports on TV that Gore campaign used a telemarketing firm to call people and encourage them to file these "citizen law suits".
