"Jay Honeck"
The only people who couldn't vote in Florida (in the 2000 presidential election) were too stupid to figure out the ballot. These same ballots were designed by Democrats, monitored by Democrats and used in the previous election, where a Democrat won. The ballots were never the issue. In fact, this was a non issue until it was seized upon by the DMC, pumped up into hysteria and exploited. It was an invented (and then mass marketed) phony issue - and the Democrats knew it. Seniors not getting to vote vs. common sense and the law. Dems bet on manufactured emotion and lost. Oh, BTW, how many absentee military votes were the Democrats willing to throw away, in their pursuit of victory in Florida? This country is in need of a (credible) middle of the road, third party, for all of the folks out there like me. Is Bull Moose Party still available?

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? -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" |

Ok, why is it perfectly ok to throw away the ballots of seniors who "were too stupid to figure out the ballot", but when they throw away the ballots of soliders who are too stupid to figure out the procedures[1], that's an evil Democrat trick? [1] 680 absentee ballots that were *counted* were found to have voilated state or federal election law: 344: late, illegible or missing postmarks 183: posted with US (not APO) postmarks 169: voters weren't registerd to vote, failed to sign the envelope, or had not requested thea ballot. 96: lacked the required signature or address of a witness 38: 19 voters who cast two ballots each 5: received after the 11/17 deadline Except for the illegible postmarks, all of these people are too stupid to vote, but they did. And in most cases, their votes were counted because "canvassing boards in about a dozen Republican-leaning counties had reconvened for a second round of counting. In each place, longstanding election rules were bent and even ignored....Again and again, election officials crossed out the words `REJECTED AS ILLEGAL' that had been stamped on ballot envelopes." http://www.people.fas.harvard.edu/~k...h/ballots.html -- Paul Tomblin , not speaking for anybody I stayed up all night playing poker with tarot cards.

So what you're telling me is that both Republican and Democrat-controlled election boards used every weapon in their arsenal to assure victory for their candidate in Florida?

Did anybody else see the 51 Chevy pickup that some Cubans made into a
boat by strapping empty tanks around the side on the news yesterday and today? Did you immediately think of Ted Kennedy too?

I thought of my sister, in St. Paul, who has a very, very, very nice 51
Chevy pickup for sale. Green with the original Iowa grain box still on the back. 99% original condition, great shape - $8,500. * Cubans not included -- Montblack ("Newps" wrote) Did anybody else see the 51 Chevy pickup that some Cubans made into a boat by strapping empty tanks around the side on the news yesterday and today?
