The Boies spin reveals new panic in the Gore camp. For if this is purely a state issue, then why has the highest court in the land agreed to hear the case on federal constitutional grounds? The Gore team has known all along about the 11th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals case of Roe v. Alabama, which overturned an Alabama Supreme Court ruling that had changed the way votes were counted, after an election. Sound familiar? And that was in a state election, not a federal one. How much greater is the weight of the Bush argument for federal review of a federal election and for the only office in which the candidates are elected by the entire nation? Gore is in deep trouble this moment. Whereas Florida's Supremes are an activist court for partisan reasons, at least the U.S. Supreme Court has been activist for the purpose, in their minds, of reining in states not compliant with the U.S. Constitution. The Bush argument that will be heard is that the Florida Supremes violated equal protection, due process, and separation of powers provisions of the federal Constitution. Sounds right to me. And here's a bet that it will sound right to Rehnquist's robed brethren.

So zonkie you agree that I posted no false facts. Then what lie do you accuse me of telling. I now think that zonkie has born false witness against me in suggesting that I have posted many lies. zonkie I never let a liar lie. Yor statement >>>>Yes I have seen many lies that you and others have posted. Falsely accusing someone of lying is a scumbag thing to do. Is this another data point that shows that liberals who support Sore and Loserman are scum or just don't get it.
