more reasons for GA: John Gilmo I was ejected from a plane for wearing "Suspected Terrorist" button

In a previous article, "Jay Honeck" said:
it was an election
remember some people not allowed to vote in Florida? it was an election.
No, no comparison!
The only people who couldn't vote in Florida (in the 2000 presidential
election) were too stupid to figure out the ballot.

They weren't barred from voting by any external force.

WRONG! Several hundred (or was it several thousand) people were prevented
from voting because they had the same names as convicted felons, and
Florida had struck them from the voters rolls. Florida had hired a
company to find the felons and remove them, but the company had done
nothing more sophisticated than a name match, so if there was a convicted
felon named John Wayne Smith anywhere in the country, nobody with that
name was allowed to vote in Florida.

And they did the same damn thing in the last congressional election, in
spite of a law suit from the ACLU.

"It's 106 light-years to Chicago, we've got a full chamber of anti-matter,
a half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark, and we're wearing visors."
"Engage."

WRONG! Several hundred (or was it several thousand) people were prevented
from voting because they had the same names as convicted felons

Well, unless you subscribe to the theory that Democrats are more likely to
be related to felons (!), this procedural glitch should have hurt both
parties equally.

You're not REALLY saying that people with the last name as known felons
would be more likely to vote for Gore, are you, Paul?
