On December 6, 2000 all Al Gore has left is two borderline to frivilous lawsuits and an appeal of Judge N. Sander Sauls Leon County Court ruling against his election contest. The Gore Campaign has found a new low in two so-called private party voter lawsuits in Martin and Seminole Counties attempting to void thousands of absentee ballots already cast, counted, and registered. In my belief these two actions are criminal at best and malicious at least. These suits seek to cruxify the altruistic actions of poll workers in a desperate attempt at a last gasp to elect their Boy Gore.
First, on December 5th, the Gore Groundhog Day Gorinches were dealt a heavy blow by the straight talking Judge Sauls ( Two Strikes You're Out! ( 12-4-2000 ) ) and they were reeling.
Joseph Lieberman slinked to the microphone, trying to subdue his negative anxiety induced Mister Sardonicus smile, and was, " very disappointed ". He whined, like only he seems to be able to get away with without nationwide ridicule, " The Florida Supreme Court's decision was blocked ". Funny, I thought the RATS were getting their court room's worth? He wanted everyone to just get along, saying, " There is no crisis in the United States of America ". Well, aren't you really feeling so much better since you read that he said that? I am not feeling any better and I wrote in down once and then typed it! He declared that we all should, " prepare for the holidays ". Oh that is way too easy for him to say; I wonder what the Israelis would say? He mantraed(sic), " FAIR ". I was shaking, as he warned the non-believers in Gore, " Some university students under the freedom of information act will count these ballots ". I think they had better hope Larry Klayman and Judicial Watch don't count them to expose the real count in Broward County especially. What a skunk the LIEBERMAGGOT is! I should have known that if Bill Clinton learned from this guy or worked on an ancient campaign for him, that he was THE MORALLY RELATIVISTIC TYPE!!!
Tim Russert was looking particularly haggard, unrested and non-make-upped(sic), as he offered the DNC spinmeister routine in that there was only one thing left, " finality for the Seminole County case ". A DIRTYcRAT by any other name would bob his head in agreement with Lieberman just as robotically, still calling it, " a tie ". Oh, please. THESE MSNBC HACKS ARE STILL TRYING TO PUSH GORE LIEBERMAN 2000?
December 6th, Harry Jacobs, Democrat activist, operative and DIRTYcRAT DU'JOUR, demonstrated how low he would go in support of Al Gore by bankrolling, at least partially, a lawsuit in Seminole County trying to throw out over ten thousand already cast, counted and certified absentee ballot votes on pre-election ballot request form technicalities. The DIRTYcRAT talking heads have been lying in mass on the media that this suit had to do with actual ballots. SHAMEFUL.
This is how I feel about it. The Democrats are really getting desperate, as they want to throw out absentee ballots in Seminole County because the voter identification number on the original absentee ballot application in early October was filled in for them? Leon County Circuit Court is once again playing host to the liberal skunks who will stop at doing and saying absolutely anything, whether it be true or not, to steal the election for their Boy Gore!
*SEMINOLE COUNTY TRIAL*
In the court room of Judge Nikki Clark, the Seminole County case brought by Harry Jacobs, who reportedly gave 50 thousand dollars to the DNC, produced a Gore Lieberman television spot for free and otherwise engaged in extremely partisan Democrat activities, got under way.
Gerald Richman, attorney for the plantiff, Harry Jacobs ( the Gore Campaign? ) talked a lot like a political spinmeister ( liar? ), repeatedly saying, " Republican operative ", the maximum number of times imaginable in an opening argument or statement. He characterized the conduct of still innocent and not charged with any crimes, people in a manner in which he was not to offer any evidence of, other than election fraud is a felony, as engaging in, " felonius activity ". He was not to back up this claim with a drop, let alone an ounce, of evidence. Does the DNC give these lawyers a blood test for integrity and then take the ones with the lowest level or what?
Daryl Bristow, Bush lawyer, opened, " The Democrat lawyers carry these forms around with them, that way they can make any changes they want in private ".
Terry Young, attorney for the Seminole County Canvassing Board, stated, " The plantif is a very powerful Democrat in Seminole County. He gave the Gore Campaign 50 thousand dollars of his own money ", and, " after he heard Joe Lieberman was on the ticket, pledged to do everything to get the Gore-Lieberman ticket elected ".
Steve Hall, the first DIRTYcRAT witness, admitted he was a, " registered Dermocrat ", engaged in, " telephone banking ", like a good, " active ", RAT. Trying to make things sound sinister, as they were not, Richman asked him about when he went to get a Republican absentee ballot form. Again, putting on his best accusatory tone for effect, and the effect was really hurting, asked; what was the atmosphere like? " Tense ". Richman then led him through an intentional trashing of Sandra Goard, an elected election official? He said, in essense, ' I was in a meeting about the ballot counting; I told them I had a Republican absentee form '. " I noticed it was absent the voter identification number ", he offered. I think he is trying to paint in a positive light, a Democrat dirty trickster meeting by RATS to try to overturn the certified election results of Florida by any means possible ( or imaginable ) in service of their Boy Gore. THESE RATS COME TO COURT WITH CHEESE ON THEIR BREATH, AS THE SEMINOLE COUNTY BALLOT REQUEST OMMISSION WAS ON TELEVISION AND IN THE LOCAL NEWSPAPERS IN THE MONTH PRIOR TO THE NOVEMBER ELECTION!
Terry Young cross examined Hall with a beginning impeachment based on him stating today he was employed as a painter, but last week he was unemployed. He was shown an absentee ballot application request form for Democrats; the return address was not the Canvassing Board or Division of Elections, but a private business where he used to work! This is important, because the RATS made a big deal about the GOP handling ballot requests and they receive them before forwarding them to the official entity? Get this, HE EXECUTED HIS WRITTEN AFFIDAVIT IN THE UAW OFFICE. You read that right; how about that for union involvement? Oh please, like corrupt union mob members, bosses or operatives are going to be believed?
Daryl Bristow also crossed, getting him to admit Goard left him alone in her office, asking if that was giving a Democrat unfettered access? He answered in the affirmative and probably lied, " I was nervous being in there alone ".
Dean Ray was the next witness examined by Gerald Richman ( probably rich enough to donate time to Gore? ). The first question was; have you ever run for office? " Four times ", was the answer. Like the prior witness, Sandra Goard was the prime target, made easy because Ray was trying to have the filing fee waived to run for office and had a bone to pick with Goard. This had nothing to do with a ballot request but did include a public document. I don't understand why Judge Clark even allowed this testimony, if not for the emotional value, but then I couldn't understand why Clark seemed to allow Richman to instruct her on election law yesterday? DO YOU THINK HAVING HIS PAPERWORK DENIED BY GOARD MADE HIM SHOW PREJUDICE ( Gosh, don't accuse a DIRTYcRAT of being biased or partisan? ) ?
Terry Young crossed him; how many votes did you get? " I got 56 votes ". After exaggerating the perceived bias by Goard in denying his petition during his direct examination, to impeach his testimony that Goard demed forms without voter registration numbers invalid, he was guided to confess the opposite with his answer to, ' You were a thousand signatures short ' ( out of less than 2 thousand )? " Yes sir ". He had to admit, " She could not verify the signatures ". Directly questioned/impeached, ' She never said they were rejected because of the lack of a voter registration '? " Yes ", he had to reply. He impeached him further by showing a form he signed saying he couldn't pay for the 10 cent per signature charge, answering, " Yes ", while he then paid the 3 thousand dollar filing fee, answering another, " Yes ". Going for the juggler, he asked if; you in fact did not file your financial report in a timely fashion; the answer was, " That is true ". Delivering the coup de'grace, he asked; you got a fine and you are currently an adversary of Mrs. Goard, as you are appealing this fine? The answer finally was, " Yes ". My question was; why is this guy with a prtition for election testifying when the trial is about absentee ballot applications? He was redirected to rationalize, " I sold a house I had in Detroit to get the money ". Yeah, sure, right, whatever; it may explain why he was at the UAW?
Ronald Livingston was witness through deposition, saying in his absense, " I filed this protest on the 15th ". You could tell me was whining at the deposition, " The office would not enter the voter registration number on my absentee ballot request ". Clark let the guy read on and on, including completely unresponsive portions. Finally Barry Richard had to object as well, after the deposition mentioned cocaine? SAD, REALLY SAD. " I am a Republican ", was read? They tried to grandstand over and over again, reading dramatically; with Richard needing to object successfully every time! The Judge said, " We have to stick with the issues ". There was no cross examination of the deposition and on the use of the depositions instead of witnesses, Gerald Richman argued, " So the public knows what is going on ". How is that for a circus court atmosphere playing to the video cameras?
OUTSIDE SOMEWHERE ELSE IN FLORIDA, JESSE JACKSON LED A DIRTYcRAT MOB WHERE HE BIGOTTED, " WE GATHER TODAY ON A QUEST FOR DEMOCRACY ". MEANWHILE A FEDERAL APPEALS COURT DENIED THE BUSH REQUEST TO THROW OUT ALL HAND COUNTS.
Gerald Richman had portions of Sandra Goard's deposition read. It held such earth shattering revelations as, " Rejected forms are put in a box ", and, " When the cards came in with no numbers they were put in a box ". Not getting the desired shock value he tried to make up something through accusation and inuendo, ' Do you know whether or not the people tapped into your database '?, was answered simply, " No, every employee has a password ". What the heck does this have to do with the absentee ballot request forms? I think he is playing to the court of public opinion, not the Leon County Court. He asked; ' is this the first time you let somebody come in and complete the forms? " Yes ". And it happened in mid October? " Yes ". " When we are processing absentee ballot applications we do not look at their political affilliation ", the so-called non-Gore Campaign counsel read. This woman doing the Sandra Goard deposition in a dramatic manner, had obviously memorized and probably practised her readings, as in many occasions she didn't have to read from the deposition itself! THE DIRTYcRAT LAWYER ( liar? ) CONTINUED THROUGH INUENDO TO INSINUATE THAT GOARD LET REPUBLICANS HAVE ACCESS TO THE OFFICE COMPUTERS AND DATABASE. The RAT LADY, ( Kate Pringle, excuse me...) did her darnedest to read curtly and rudely! Barry Richard crossed the depo, boldly announcing, " I am just getting tired, you honor ". He then read two questions and answers which said it all. You did not contact the Republican Party? " No. ". They did nothing but put the numbers on? " Yes ".
Richman just had to put on a statistician witness ( MAYBE TO SEE IF A RAT LAWYER COULD GET IT RIGHT? ) calling James Delong, professor of economics at UC Berkeley ( I believe the university which invented that black rap ghetto language called Ubonics-sic ? ). Oh man, this guy is getting 500 dollars an hour. He was to testify to, " How should ballots be discounted for Vice President Gore and Governor Bush ". In real language; this means taking away votes from Bush using some commie numbers from within a liberal's head? If that was a remedy, why are they talking about the remedy before the verdict? Is it that this is a KANGAROO RAT COURT like it seems? Oh no, the guy actually had to admit he was, " using exit poll data from Voter News Service ". Huh? That group was the RATS that called Florida early and caused this whole thing; they should be on trial!
Sheesh, MSNBC keeps putting the text: GORE HAS NOT JOINED THE LAWSUIT IN SEMINOLE COUNTY, on the lower portion of the screen. The liberal network must not have watched it's own coverage of Gore spewing DNC bile and allegations like a DIRTYcRAT TALKING HEAD! Oh, I get it; if they didn't run the text, everyone would think it was the Gore Campaign?
Stuart Levey crossed, ' you didn't happen to be watching CNN on election night did you? " Well, I was channel surfing ", was the answer. Election polling can be faulty; was answered, " Yes, by a point or two ". Then it started to fall apart for him, with; How much exit poll data deals with absentee ballots? The answer, " None ". Again; Exit polls don't tell us about how absentee ballots were cast do they? He didn't answer, nor want want to answer, " I believe when one party has access to the system we are running a great risk ". Oh so that is how it is; this guy is another partisan operative if I have ever seen one. Levey just let him go on in his political advocate haze, " Procedural fairness is an integral part of it ". OH MAN, JUST WHEN THIS GUY THOUGHT HE WAS ON TOP OF THE WORLD, LEVEY EXPOSED THAT HE WORKED FOR AL GORE FROM 1992 TO 1995. Saved the best for last, did he!
Terry Young joined in the ridicule with, ' You have never been qualified as an expert witness before '? He had to answer, " That would be fair ". He further exposed this guy's laughable position,' Did you rely on exit poll data from Seminole County? It was the unbelievable answer, " No ". Young made a total monkey out of Delong. His so-called statistical analysis relied on no information from Seminole County. Yes you read that correctly.
Barry Richard was a little bit more kind, but not much, with, ' We do not know how any single voter filled out his ballot do we '? " No, statisitics does not like certainty ". To add insult to injury, Judge Clark even had to chime in, " Please answer the question and only the question ". Richard continued; is there a margin of error in your calculation? " Yes ". Not expecting an answer but getting one, he asked; Would we save a lot of money if we just let you and your statistician buddies decide the election? " No ". His voice finally started to get whiney and as Richard finally began to feel a little pity, Delong dropped his pen on the floor, looking but not reaching down to pick it up!
Daryl Bristow, Bush lawyer, began to systematically dismantle, piece by piece, the incomplete data Delong used to reach his now obviously phoney set of numbers. The big question was. If you are going to say this action changed the election, don't you have to analyze what might have happened if the action didn't occur? " Yes ". That was sort of like Ahmann saying to hand count in a close election!
THE PLANTIFF RESTED, INSTEAD OF TRYING TO REHABILITATE THE SPOILED WITNESS FURTHER.
The defense opened with Rachel Gebaide examined by Terry Young. She introduced a, " review of all the absentee ballot requests ". Eric Seiler tried in vain to do something unclear on cross examination.
*MARTIN COUNTY TRIAL*
The Martin County absentee ballot trial in the court room of Judge Terry Lewis of Leon County starred the cracker Edward Stafman as the non-Gore joined plantiff's attorney. He was theatrical as heck and offensive as a DIRTYcRAT. Having no real wrongdoing to litigate he had to manufacture his own ( much like Broward County did with Gore votes? ). He described the innocent poll workers adding or correcting voter identification numbers as, " sinister underground conspiracy ", " Republican operatives "and, " fraud ".
On came the hostile witness, Tomas Hauck Martin County GOP Executive Committee member, examined by Gary Coleman, testified, " The people in the office worked very hard ". Coleman made himself look very stupid in trying to make an innocent incident into something sinister. IT IS REALLY SAD THAT THE DIRTYcRAT LAWYERS ARE TRYING, THROUGH THEIR OWN ATTITUDE AND VOICE INFLECTION TO MAKE INNOCENT PEOPLE LOOK GUILTY. Coleman looked very idiotic as he kept repeating, " Conspiracy to "...do this or that. Hauck only kept telling the truth, " Put the correct number on them ".
Charles Kane ( not Killer ) another GOP member was examined by Gary Coleman. On a call from Mr. Hauck, " I have some cards here, requests for absentee ballots and they need the voter ID numbers put on them ". He continued, " We had a phone bank going, so I said to try to call them ", and, " I had to stay there late to correct the problem done by the Republican party ". Grilled about getting the numbers off computers or using the telephone, he said, " I think we did both ways; a number of people were called ", but we stopped because we reached, " too many people's machines ".
NO GOOD DEED GOES UNPUNISHED. Kenneth Wright redirected Kane. Did anyone tell you you had to be secretive or careful? " No, we were correcting a problem and helping a voter to get a ballot ".
Todd Schnick, the creator of the faulty mailing who just wanted to crawl into a hole and die, was examined by Edward Stafman. You created this mailing? " Yes ". He clarified, " The voter was required to put the last four digits of his or her social security number and his or her signature ". Even these shifty RAT lawyers couldn't trip up the common people trying to fix an innocent problem. IN REDIRECT IT WAS POINTED OUT THAT THE DEMOCRAT ABSENTEE BALLOT FORM IS NOT SENT TO THE DIVISION OF ELECTIONS, BUT BACK TO ITSELF. So much for the legality of their mailing. I think the DIRTYcRATS MAILING SEEMS TO BE ILLEGAL ON IT'S VERY FACE? EXCUSE ME, THE REPUBLICANS WERE CORRECTING A NUMBER NOT REGISTERING PETS OR THE DEAD?
Clay Roberts, Director of the Division of Elections was examined by Jonathan Sjostrom, attorney for Katherine Harris. The dipstick blocked the camera with the show cards. I was still left with the question: WHAT DOES AN EXIT POLL HAVE TO DO WITH AN ABSENTEE BALLOT APPLICATION?
December 7th began with the CLOSE of the SEMINOLE COUNTY absentee ballot case/fiasco.
Gerald Richman continued to try to make a mountain out of a molehill, after making that molehill out of nothing. Judge Nikki Clark said, " The Supervisor of Elections let the Republicans in, but the Democrats didn't ask for that ". Richman said, " The Democrats didnt' know..."
Terry Young argued, " These allegations are untrue and the impeachment of her ( Goard ) testimony on the grounds she can't remember who she talked to is wrong ". Clark jumped in, " By what authority did she make the changes; the statute clearly says the voter "? Young answered, " The memo from the Division of Elections...This is directory language and not mandatory ". He declared, " Mrs. Goard didn't cover anything up. She went on the radio ". He said, " He came there to correct the mistake ". Not missing a chance to call the kettle black, " The Republican card went to the Division of Elections but the Democrat card went back to where it was sent from ". He finished, " There is no doubt that what is behind this case is politics ".
Greg McNeill closed with the only fact one needs, when dealing with ballot request forms, " Statutory requirements are considered directory unless otherwise stated ". McNeill then had THE LINE OF THE DAY, " The reputation of a loyal public servant has been ruined in a case in front of the national media, all in the plantiff's zeal to get the candidate elected and if the court is looking for intentional misconduct, that's it "!
Barry Richard began that the, " statute is directory ". He argued the plantiff produced, " no evidence of what has been compromised ". He continued, " There is no evidence that the ballots were compromised. If the ballots weren't comprimised, the election wasn't compromised ". Richard admitted, " I am a registered Democrat ". He commented about the forgetable statistician Delong's testimony, " Mr. Richman seems to have backed off the formula testified to by his expert. I don't know why he did that, but maybe he listened to him like I did ".
Daryl Bristow closed, " The Supervisor expressed publically her concern...that was plenty of time to notify those innocent people ".
Kenneth Wright argued, " These irregularities, whether they did occur or not ", should not invalidate the ballots cast.
Jon Sjostrom closed, " Every voter the plantiffs are attacking is innocent ". He continued, " The plantiffs have shown nothing..." He also expressed outrage at the reputationsof the poll workers tarnished because they wanted to correct a problem.
Mat Staver was an intervenor, saying, " The right to vote by absentee is a fundamental right ".
I HAVE ONLY DISDAIN FOR THE DIRTYcRAT LAWYERS WHO HAVE DESTROYED THE INNOCENT.
Gerald Richman tried to redirect the subject of the trial away from his lost integrity with, " A bus load of Republicans are given the opportunity, but the Democrats and everybody eles are shut out "? THIS DIRTYcRAT POSSESSES NO SHAME. Even Judge Clark had to sustain an objection to keep this piece of work on the subject. Not all Democrats are DIRTYcRATS, but all DIRTYcRATS are Democrats. SHEESH, he used the old, " what comes next ", law school bologna...SHAMELESS?
Judge Nikki Clark closed, " My job is not to send a message ".
I couldn't put it better myself than John Sununu did on MSNBC, " I hope the people of Florida have the sense to remove these seven judicial hacks, be either impeachment or recall "!
