When this is over, we need to have another party, like we did for the Open House last year. No matter who wins!

Really, I wish the FBI would look into all the "odd" events mentioned here and there....Speaking of Rush...did you see this article? ******* Folks, this is not a close election - or wouldn't have been without a lot of shaky Democratic tactics. A recent New Republic story reported that the Gore team had a recount strategy ready to go way in advance of Election Day, but that's not all they've done. There's a mountain of evidence that shows that the Democrats had a plan to fix the outcome of this election all along. So what's happening in Florida is not something that the Democratic side dreamed up on Election Night or the day after. This is a plan they had ready to go, and was part of their strategy sessions for months. Here's another way in which the Democrats tried to rig the vote: last year, the Clinton-Gore administration issued an order - in direct defiance of more than a hundred years of tradition to all military commanders - to prevent Election Day voting in any Department of Defense facility. When commanders requested a reason, the Wall Street Journal reports, they were told the directive was to prevent the military authority from intimidating voters. So here you have evidence of a plan put into place a year ago to frustrate the ability of military personnel to vote and, of course, now we know that they had a strategy to discard military overseas ballots. We know that the Democrats registered felons to vote for Algore in Florida. That's the truth, and it reminds me of Paul "The Forehead" Begala's outrageous piece posted on MSNBC's website talking about how the states that voted for George Bush are populated by rapists, racists, muggers, murderers, purse snatchers, homophobes and sexists. That's what you say, Forehead, but in Florida, thirty-nine felons were actually allowed to vote for Algore, via absentee ballot. And don't forget that, at the last minute, the Democrats registered huge numbers of newly arrived immigrants and instructed them to vote for Algore. Look at what Algore had to do just to make it this close. He had a roaring economy, prosperity and peace. He should have had a 20-point lead in the polls and at least that large an electoral victory. But even with these favorable conditions, even with all the rigging and illegal fundraising this crowd has done over the years, he still couldn't win the presidency and the Electoral College! The Democrats knew what trouble they were in a long time ago, so they stacked the deck in a number of ways to give themselves an illegal advantage. So strip away the cheating and Gore had no chance. This is not a liberal country and the Democrats are not the chosen party of America. It's gotten to the point that they have to cheat in order to win. Even after all of this cheating to win, the Gore team has yet another fall back strategy in case they lose: investigate and flip Electoral College electors pledged to Bush. Long time Democrat operative Bob Beckel has been collecting information on electors, but denies that he's trying to intimidate them. Gore has dissociated himself from any effort to harass or talk to these electors. Beckel has responded that he's not going to be invited to the White House Christmas party because he won't stop it. This is a crock. This whole thing is a concerted effort - including trying to make it look like Gore doesn't want any part of it. Gore tries to tell us that he doesn't want any of this to happen, but he's the guy orchestrating it all! And don't think for a moment they wouldn't try to intimidate, harass or even blackmail electors. Folks, it's no longer even a question of whether or not they're trying to steal it. That was their plan, all along. The only question left is whether they're going to succeed.
