Yes, that is why large majorities support the Bush position, because he spat in their faces......LOL!

Sure he can. The "contest" period allows him to ask for a full state recount. It's the law. He doesn't want a full state recount. AND EVERYBODY KNOWS IT.

Don't be ridiculous. Gore only made the offer because he knew it could not be accepted. It was against the law to begin with. JLA

Excuse me, there's is absolutely nothing stopping Al Gore from petitioning the Florida SC to recount all of Florida. He doesn't need Bush's permission to request to overturn existing law, he's done it before without Bush's permission. Jim

Re: "Gore can't carry out something that Bush wouldn't agree to." That's false. Period. I've already explained, but just so you understand, Gore did NOT need Bush to agree to a damn thing in order to ask for widespread and fair hand-counts, something he's never done despite ample opportunity. Hey, was it the Chicago suntimes or the tribune that had the editorial yesterday agreeing 100% with what I'm saying and HAVE been saying for weeks now? Anyone? Great editorial, IMO. Dan B

"George sneered at the offer and then spit in the face of the American people" He spit in the face of Al Gore, NOT the American people. I for one would have been pissed if he met with Al. Al wanted to make a "deal" to decide the election. GWB was correct when he said the voters and the LAW would decide the election. Why were you so offended by GWB not wanting to meet with Al? Are you so naive to think the offer was anything more than PR? If so, you are more gullable than I thought. And I thought you were pretty darn gullable.
