You keep posting the same things...and have completely ignored the posts to you that clearly explain the difference. You just want to talk...but you never try listening.

Re: "Nothing stopped him from agreeing to Gore's perfectly fair offer to recount ALL of the FL counties, and to accept the results!" Everything should have stopped Gore from engaging in the reprehensible seeking of unfair advantage he was engaged in and didn't intend to cease(IMO) even as he made that offer. All a Bush acceptance would have garnered would have been this: "Sorry George, but the Fla. law just wouldn't allow us to count your territories too...you should have fought like I did, I guess. At least your recognize these counts I got were fair under the system as it is." Well, NOT! Gore was dreaming, it wasn't going to happen. Dan B

"What's "unfair" about THAT?" Al Gore can't offer things outside the law. From an emotional point I can see what you are saying. But the election rules (law) said that candidates could make certain challenges within 72 hours. Gore did, Bush didn't. Gore's offer is just so his minions can say what you are saying now. I hate all these woulda-coulda-shoulda things the demos so often refer to. GWB won this election by the rules that were in place at the time of the election. If you can't count on that in America, I don't know what you can count on. All the Gore fans seem quite pleased with how this whole mess is turning out now. It is DISGUSTING.
