Ellen, I am sick of seeing how Democrats on this board are going so far out in left field in order to justify the stripping our the right to vote from our military personnel. It's shameful and despicable. These exerps from Peggy Noonan's article say it better than I ever could. This naked attack, on our most basic right as citizens, must not and will not stand! ------------------------------------------------ In the most shameful and painful act of the hand counts, the Democrats on the ground, and their operators from the Democratic National Committee and the state organization and the Gore campaign, deliberately and systematically scrutinized for challenge every military absentee ballot, and knocked out as many as they could on whatever technicality they could find or even invent. Reports begin to filter out. The Democratic army of lawyers and operatives marches into the counting room armed with a five-page memo from a Democratic lawyer, instructing them on how to disfranchise military voters. The lawyers and operatives unspool reams of computer printouts bearing the names and party affiliation of military voters. Those who are Republicans are subject to particular and seemingly relentless scrutiny. Right down to signatures on ballots being compared with signatures on registration cards. A ballot bearing a domestic postmark because a soldier had voted, sent his ballot home to his parents and asked them to mail it in on time, is thrown out. A ballot that comes with a note from an officer explaining his ship was not able to postmark his ballot, but that he had voted on time--and indeed it had arrived in time--is thrown out, because it has no postmark. The Democratic operatives are ruthless, focused. As one witness says, "They had a clear agenda." Received late Wednesday, an e-mail forwarded from a Republican who witnessed the counting of the Brevard County overseas absentee ballots. It is 11:30 PM (Tuesday) and I have just returned from the count of absentee ballots, that started at 4PM. Gore had five attorneys there, the sole objective was to disenfranchise the military absentee voter. . . . They challenged each and every vote. Their sole intent was to disqualify each and every absentee voter. They constantly challenged military votes that were clearly legitimate, but they were able to disqualify them on a technicality. I have never been so frustrated in all my life as I was to see these people fight to prevent our active duty Military from voting. They succeeded in a number of cases denying the vote to these fine Men and Women. This was a deliberate all out assault on the Armed Forces solely to sustain the Draft Dodger and his flunky. These people must have a hard time looking at themselves in a mirror. . . . They denied a number of votes postmarked Queens NY, ballots that were clearly ordered from overseas, clearly returned from overseas, and verified by the Post Office that DOD uses the Queens post office to handle overseas mail, were denied because it didn't say APO, They denied military votes postmarked out of Jacksonville, Knowing full well it came from ships at sea and was flown into Jacksonville . . . . This is what you can expect from a Gore administration a further trampling on the Military and more trampling on your rights. . . . The attorneys there treated it all as a joke, and when my wife protested their actions she was told she didn't understand

Look, if you really wanted class, you would have voted for Howard Phillips. Americans want their ears tickled so they have their choice:Gore or Bush. If you listened to their debates both used "fuzzy math" especially when they talked with authority on the surplus we'll have 10 years from now. Yeah, right! Neither one has much class. I change that. Gore has NO class.

Ellen, your feeble attempts to make Mr. Bush a liar over the dui show a stupid understanding or law and legal intent. Mr Bush when asked said he had done whatever when he was younger. Silence is constrewed as consent. So infreing a lie in this is just plain stupid on the facts. Ellen, Did Clinton lie under oath? Ellen, Did Clinton rape a woman? Ellen, Is Clinton Pig Vomit because of this and other attacks on innocent citizens? Ellen, Did Mr. Gore call this Pig Vomit the best president ever? Ellen, Has Mr. Gore lied several times while speaking to the American people? hereliesalgore.com Al Gore and the democats supporting him are scum, Pig Vomit or just stupid. Al Gore is a liar and now demostarted to be a person who will do anything to be president. Democats indeed have universally Consistantly Lied And Spoke Spin as usual. Yes democrat class as usual Tom Watson tosiwmee watman.com Patriots of Dade County at the door expressing the will of the people to the Board of Canvasers that had hid itself away to special count the dimples in secret.
