Yes, but I am telling the truth. lol! I mena not. anyway, some good readings just got posted: - Editorial Cartoons Drop Jeb (Ted Rall) Dec 7, 8:48 PM ET He Is How the World Ends Waiting For George: The Preachers And Impeachers (Richard Reeves) Dec 7, 8:48 PM ET WASHINGTON -- Once upon a time, the governor of a state in the great Southwest of America was elected president and invited his party's leaders in Congress down to see him. He was going to tell them how he intended to run the country and hoped they would help him make this a better place for every citizen. Why Gore Lost (Maggie Gallagher) Dec 7, 8:48 PM ET It's over. The court-ordered body blows have left Al Gore's post-election litigation strategy a bad joke. Butterfly ballots? Legal. Yet another recount? Illegal. Evidence of "illegality, dishonesty, gross negligence, improper influence, coercion or fraud" in this election count? Zilch, ruled Judge Sauls. Recounts in only two Democrat counties? Absurd. In a "statewide election for president," reprimanded Judge Sauls, "the plaintiff would necessarily have to ... seek as a remedy ... a review and recount of all ballots in all the counties in this state." The Real Supreme Court (Ann Coulter) Dec 7, 8:48 PM ET Despite morale-boosting claims in the mainstream media that the U.S. Supreme Court's unanimous ruling didn't really do anything -- or, as Al Gore put it ("Twilight Zone" theme music here), was "neutral," perhaps even "favorable" -- the opinion kicked the air out of the Supreme Court of Florida (SCOFLA). Reforms? What Kind? (William F. Buckley Jr.) Dec 6, 8:57 PM ET One radio commentator, in the thick of the judicial flurry on Monday, commented icily that some Republicans seemed to be saying that there was no national right to vote in presidential elections, that the logic of the position of Justice Scalia was as simple as that if the legislature of the state of Florida ruled that no one was qualified to vote for president, so would it be. The shorthand for this form of reductionism in argument is: Who says A, must say B. I.e., any man who holds that the legislature is supreme on the question of elections to federal office must commit himself to saying that the legislature is entitled simply to eliminate the presidential ballot. Bush An Imposter? (William F. Buckley Jr.) Dec 2, 8:29 PM ET Suppose -- the reader is requested to luxuriate in the metaphor -- suppose that The New York Times simply refused to acknowledge that George W. Bush was the president of the United States ... dailynews.yahoo.com
