Another one...
Remember how the Limbaugh Extremism In Broadcasting (EIB) network and friends went on and on and on about how Gore was perverting the election process by asking that the votes should actually be counted?

And then, moving to the other side with the Franken/Coleman Senate election last year were lamenting how horrible it was that Franken was dragging it out so long that it was perverting the election process - even though Franken was ahead and actually did win the election.  And wanted it to be over with.  It was Coleman the was doing the "dragging out".

Beyond the Magic Kook-Aid... it's Repuli-contin time!!!

How many times was it that the vote was recounted?  Recount until you win?   Works on both sides.

I have since forgotten numbers.  I do remember the hanging chads and other machines that didn't work and then thinking that Oklahoma has one thing that actually seems to work with our ballot counting machines.

Which one?  Franken was recounted a couple times with same results both times. 

Gore was recounted once or twice, but the big thing there was the withholding of votes to be counted by Kathryn Harris (alledged vote counter), backed up by Jeb Bush (gov), and squelched by reactionary justices in the top Federal court.

Hanging chads are just excuses not to count a vote that was the victim of poorly designed and miserably maintained voting machines.  (Can you spell "Diebold", massive contributor to the Bush campaigns...)

We are lucky - so far - until some clown sees the wide open opportunity for fraud afforded by paperless machines.  THAT is the next big voting abomination!

I don't share my thoughts because I think it will change the minds of people who think differently.  I share my thoughts to show the people who already think like me that they are not alone.

You can put away the conspiracy theories now.

The paperless machines performed so abysmally in previous elections (machine lock-ups, lost data, etc.) that scores of election boards junked them and went back to paper voting.

You don't seem to be gaining much traction with the liberal-leaning members on here either.  Your schtick has been done multiple times on here by multiple personalities, it's nothing more than cheap amusement for most of us.

Pretty clever, putting the defective machines only in the districts inclined to vote for Algore.   I wonder how Diebold did that.  Statistically I would have expected at least a few defective machines to end up in districts in favor of Bush in spite of their best intentions.

Traction?  Not interested.

Schtick?  Reality as schtick.  Wow...shows how far gone....

Try making just one cogent point without resorting to tired old liberal cliches.  Bet you can't do it.
