Jerrel,

Thank goodness you are a lurker and don't post more. One hundred percent of your posts include a profanity and were off-topic. Ooof.

>>Bush had the votes in Florida if they were counted properly with a REAL standard and not one that changed every few ballots.

Of course he did. I wasn't in a position to know this but I assume you were. Which brings me back to what I have been saying all along. The entire state should have been manually recounted using uniform standards. To the country's detriment, but to his personal gain, the "great uniter" wouldn't do the right thing and try to get all of the votes counted. If, as you assert, he would have won anyway it seems like a no-brainer. Instead, he fought tooth-and-nail to not count the votes when he could have kept it out of the courts and had input into what the standards were.

Here's a thought...the votes that were undercounted were judged with a different standard than the ones which were counted. We don't even know if the machines threw out any votes which were punched out all the way for a single candidate because nobody got to look at them.

>>Justice prevails!

I think it is more like "Justices prevail".
