People who hate Bush hate him because...

[Kathianne]

Not from OFFICIAL RECOUNTS, need me to explain the word official to you? He would've needed the votes of hanging chads, Blacks who weren't smart enough to know they didn't need to write his name in also, butterflys and the votes sent through a psychic of deceased citizens to come out on top.

Clearly you didn't read any of those posts because they OWNNNNNNNNNN YOUUUUUUUUUUUU!

Gore's message got out and was rejected.

and here's the link:

The link only addressed undercounts and only in the counties Gore had asked for recounts in.

More people cast votes for Gore in FL 2000 and all of the evidence supports that.

Clearly you didn't read the links because what they said was that if all of the ballots had been counted even once, including the illegally rejected over votes Gore won handily.

The "official" label means the results as certified by Katherine Harris. After the SC stopped the counting.

God I hesitate to ask you to backup anything you say but.....have anything to back up the wild accusation you just made?

All the votes were counted once, Bush won. There were no illegally rejected votes.

Bush did not win the popular vote. He won the electoral vote only because Florida was decided in his favor. Recounts in Florida and Ohio found serious voting flaws.
That is all WAY in the past. Why keep debating it?

[Hugh Lincoln]

I agree with all 5 of HC's counterpoints, but none of them is the reason I hate Bush.

I hate Bush because he is the diametric opposite of everything our party is supposed to stand for. Personal responsibility, less government, and integrity.

And national sovereignty, secure borders, careful spending, putting the interests of American over those of other countries, selecting cabinet members for reasons of merit, commanding elocution, literacy, getting your spot because you fought for it, not because daddy gave it to you, etc. etc. etc.

I fully understand that 9/11 forced Mr. Bush to change the platform he ran on, but what pisses me off the most about him is his rhetoric about the need to protect this great Nation from terrorists, but his refusal to protect our borders. You can't have one without the other.

No they were not all counted and yes approx 100,000 ballots WERE rejected illegally, and yes i provided the link. It was a loooong interview with an actual elections manager in FL who has impecible creds.

He quoted FL law which states that ballots can not be rejected when there is a clear intention expressed for a candidate.

Over votes are not ambiguous. They clearly show whom the voter was selecting.

Good post

Really? Who is Ramzi Ahmed Yousef?

A prisoner of the US?

I think giving Bush credit for this is ludicrous. It's not like we've had few stretches of time where we've been free of terrorist attacks.

It's hard to communicate with dingdongs that can't remember all the lies of the Bush admin. I know there's been a lot, but we have to try to practise our memory.

But here you go, check out this video and learn about the lies.

How can we deny this?

I don't think that whether they can remember is an issue, Sam. It's much more likely that they don't want to remember. And if they were dumb enough to vote for him, I can hardly blame them for not wanting to.

Big egos can't admit they believed the lies?
