Well, I can't wait for what the next dragging death democrat morality play is going to be. These democrat's are truly STUPID, RABID STUPID and Jesse and Al Sharpten have got the black bigot Berry lead Commission ON Civil Right's looking like total fools discussing the degree of intimidation of asking for a driver license is. One person who was black of the millions who voted was stopped and asked to show their license ON ELECTION DAY. The person voted anyway. This is the freedom to complain that Martin Luther King fought and died for. I figure all those who fought for civil rights, were beaten, spit on and even killed are all turning in their graves considering that EXTREME HENIOUS VIOLATION OF CIVIL RIGHT IN AKSING TO SEE THE LICENSE OF ONE, OF ONE, OF ONE,. individual. The thought just brings a dimple to the soul. Well maybe the democrats will do something constructive with this news. Yes I think they will enlist the Psychic Friends Network to communicate with a parallel universe where Al won. naahhhh..... I figure dem dems is just gonna lie, cheat, attack and be all they can be as pig vomit has created them. But I do love that STUPID pig Vomit went on the record about how President Bush won because the courts decided and not the people. Tom Watson tosiwmee

I thought the undervotes contained no votes at all-- the Republican machine must have said so a million times. Seriously, let's wait til they're done counting the whole undervote before we say everything is "settled". As a Democrat, I certainly could have lived with Bush winning the recount. What I find it hard to live with is that we had a tied Presidential election, with the winner and loser separated by less than 1% of 1% of the vote, and instead of an orderly democratic (small 'd') process to count the vote as carefully as possible, we had a supervisor of elections who was actively working for the winning candidate and a state-wide Republican machine that conspired to stop any recount while their guy was ahead. The whole system took a lot of damage here -- the state offices of Florida, whose public duty it is to impartially oversee elections, the process of contesting elections, all the courts involved, especially including the Supreme Court, which gave the election to Bush in a decision that made no logical sense as law and which they admitted could not stand as precendent. That is what I really object to -- the damage to our faith in the rule of law.
