Trying to grab the media spotlight from one another Broward County reversed it's decision not to recount any more ballots and invited the cameras to show the trucks pulling up with half a million pieces of raw material for the Gore Campaign Broward County Vote Manufacturers to work with. Not to be out done, self declared Palm Beach County Joan of Arc ( Chad ), Carol Roberts has been accused of altering or at least mishandling ballots by three non-partisan witnesses, who have executed written affidavits under the penalty of perjury to that fact, and the Palm Beach Canvassing Board actually entertained a motion to dismiss her because of this perceived and officially documented irregularity, which may amount to provable criminal conduct in a court of law after this whole mess has been resolved. Either way, some Democrat heads are going to roll, as Congressional Hearings are certainly going to be held on the actions of the liberal news media calling Florida early, while mostly Republicans were still voting and the heavily Democrat areas were closed, and a palm tree full of partisan Democrat Party operatives harvesting or manufacturing votes illegally for Al Gore!
The media follwed GOP candidate for Vice President Dick Cheney to Bush Headquarters in Austin, Texas hoping to get a few sound bites. They were to be denied from a gentleman who would not engage in any finger pointing, partisan or otherwise. Cheney only said, " If you have specific questions on what's going on in Florida, please address then to James Baker ". Later, to his campaign workers he expressed that, " after Saturday and the absentee ballots are counted, it will be over ".
James Baker held a news conference to address the Democrat's lies and attempts to steal the national election through orchestrated wholesale DNC voter fraud. He began, " Five days ago I predicted that this would disintegrate into endless recounts and endless litigation. The Gore Campaign has brought this to be ". He was gracious in not pointing the finger at obvious GORE CAMPAIGN LIARS, saying, " They ( The DNC and Gore Campaign ) have made numerous misstatements which I don't accuse them of being intentional ". He then commenced to systematically debunk all the DIRTYcRAT LIES about GOP hand counts, the legality of the Palm Beach so-called butterfly ballot, etc. He later clarified that in Seminole County, the counting machine spit out a few ballots and the two ( a Democrat and a Republican ) picked them up and put them back in the machine " by hand ". THESE DIRTYcRATS HAVE NO SHAME AT ALL, LYING THIS WAY! Baker, continued, " They have filed at least twelve additional lawsuits; we have filed only one lawsuit, our defensive action "!
The Florida Secretary of State requested that the Florida Supreme Court stop the hand counting ( manufacturing of votes for Al Gore by DIRTYcRATS ) of ballots in the three remaining Democrat enclaves, but they refused. It is too early to declare whether or not this is a partisan Democrat political action by a sullied Supreme Court, or a legitimate ruling of judicial policy?
On MSNBC's cable rodent-fest RATBALL, the Clinton/DNC/GoreCampaign/Chris Matthews Gestalt Beast described Palm Beach as, " horny to have a recount ". That doesn't even begin to say it. THE RATS IN THAT SEWER WILL NOT STOP UNTIL THEY HAVE MANUFACTURED ENOUGH VOTES FOR GORE TO OFFSET THE LEGALLY CAST VOTES FOR BUSH! Once again The King Rat ( apologies to George Segal ) dragged ( drug? ) Dee Dee Myers of White House security clearance drug test failure, or failure to submit, Senate Committee hearing fame ( yes I saw that one and couldn't believe it, even when I watched the tape again, and again, and again; hey guys come over here, you won't believe this even after you have seen it. ). She vomitted all over the place with no respect for the truth in the manner she has slurred over the last few days. I will not dignify her remarks by quotation, but let us say that she repeated the Clinton/Gore/Whitehouse talking points memo, in the high school cheerleader talking while chewing gum manner, we have all grown to belly laugh at!
Following the great Alan Simpson in his appearance on The Mitchell Report with Andrea Mitchell, never to be confused with the more conservative show Watch It, with Laura Ingraham, which used to be in the timeslot, Simpson was as contenious as ever. Countering some untranslatable liberal ravings from Mitchell, Simpson began, " The workers are totally Democrat and they keep counting until they get the result they wanted ". On the LEGION OF RAT LAWYERS arriving in Tallahassee, he said, " The minute that vote ended on the morning of November eighth, the squadron of Democrat lawyers arrived. Remember the contributions from the lawyers to the Democrat Party ". He continued on the legal wrangling, " This is appalling, both sides ". On how Bush and Gore feel about this, and each other, " I think there is a little bit of bad blood between Al Gore and George W. ",and the retraction call, he characterized as, " testy ". On life after this election, " You can't legislate without cooperation with the other side. You can pander, but you can't get anything done ".
Gore stepped in front of the VPOTUS cameras, backed by the walking corpse Lieberman ( Man, has that guy aged in the months of campaigning like they were years? ), now that his army of stuffed shirts, uh ballots, has began it's final dirty work, and said that it is not who w(h)in(e)s or loses, but, " how we honor our Constitution ". He was really slipping into the old monotone as he continued to drone, " Machines can sometimes missread the ballots "...you can see where he is going on this...oh no, he is doing the elementary school teacher talking to his class thing. He is trying to rationalize his biased ballot box stuffing election theft, in the four Democrat partisan areas. To my surprize, he did say he was willing to hand count, " All the counties in the entire state of Florida ". Remember, I predicted that Gore would say something about counting other counties when he didn't have the power to change it. He entered the RATLIGHT ZONE, with, " Governor Bush and I meet one on one as soon as possible ". He was partisan and patronizing, but he did say the entire state should be hand counted; so if some commie lawyers decide to bring in the manufactured votes from Palm Beach, and they add up to a Gore victory, as real; Bush could fall back on fighting their fight in the gutters across the state of Florida!
On the Fox X-Factor, Dick Morris could only offer the truth as a rhetorical question, " When you're only hand counting the four biggest Democrat counties, what do you think is going to happen "? Giggle...giggle.
Florida Secretary of State Katherine Harris showed great couage as she followed Florida case law closely in denying the three partisan counties engaged in the manufacture of Gore votes their amended returns. The one sentence explaination was, " The reasons given in their requests are insufficient to warrant the waiver of the unambiguous deadline ". She established, " This criteria is clearly set out in case law ". She left and Joe Klock gave them the bottom line, " The only ballots that matter at this point in time are the overseas ballots ".
On Fox this time, Alan Simpson commented, " It's all about politics...that lady down there, Carol Roberts, did everything but wear a Gore button on her head ".
Bill Daley slunked, dark eyedly and down headedly, up to the microphone without the Warren Christopher puppet, who possibly doesn't want to be involved with the farce any more. He began to whimper, " The Secretary of State took a rash "... oh, you know the whining Bill Daley DIRTYcRAT routine. HE LIED, DENIED, AND STUCK TO IT, LIKE THE RAT HE IS! He finally gurggled, " I wish it was a more fair decision ".
Governor Bush responded from the Governor's mansion in Texas with a forceful formula for success, saying, " The process has to be " fair ", " accurate ", and " final ". He clarified in earnest, " In some counties the votes have been counted a third and even a fourth time ". He continued, " Each time these ballots are handled, the potential for error is magnified ". He pledged to honor, " Count the remaining overseas ballots and add them to the certified votes ". This way, on Saturday the final outcome will be known; not to continue the endless recounts in Palm Beach that are, " neither fair nor accurate ", and, " arbitrary ". He highlighted the difference between he and Al Gore with, " The outcome of this election will not be a deal ". He finished with a message to the country to, " work together to unite our great country "!
Jay Leno said, " All the ballots smell like Ben Gay ". I think the smell is a little stronger that that!
What bothered me the most, was the number one answer in my personal poll was," I don't think people care about it very much ".
