Supreme Court Should Have Stayed Out of Gore Vs. Bush

[Jackie S]

But at least the entire premis on which The Court acted kept that imbecile Al Gore out of the White House.

[JD Barleycorn]

42 different recounts and Bush won them all. If the SCOTUS had stayed out then Bush still would have won. Bush was going to win, Bush did win, Gore lost and we see what Gore is all about now. If, IF (lets play make believe) Gore had won then we would either have President Lieberman now or President McCain. There would have been no Barack....

I trust Pat Buchanan's knowledge of the election , of which he was a part, way more than yours.

What you are looking at are snap shots. If you look at the big picture, Gore would have won if the ballots were not confusing in Palm Beach Co. That is just a fact you Bush apologist will not admit because it is above your IQ capacity.

Pat Buchanan himself has admitted that most of his votes in Palm Beach County were meant for Al Gore, saying he "did not campaign and bought no advertising there" (Nichols, 2001, p. 86). He added, "I would say 95 to 98 percent of [the votes] were for Gore" (id. at p. 89). The day after the election, many people were upset, saying the butterfly ballot was confusing. When the election results were "too close to call," Buchanan worried he would be charged with costing Gore the election. He said he got more media coverage after the election than he did during the campaign (id. at p. 84). The graph to the left showing an abnormally high Buchanan vote in Palm Beach County suggests the butterfly ballot cost Al Gore thousands of votes, more than enough to have won the presidency.

Well, thank god for voters who are too stupid to figure out a ballot.

The Democrats usually rely on morons, half wits, and "gimme mine" voters, but in this case, they came through for the Republicans.

Maybe there should be a competency test before voting?

No, it just shows you the IQ capacity of the typical Democrat voter. If they were confused by the ballot, they should have asked for assistance. And you are forgetting who designed the butterfly ballot in Palm Beach. I will give you a hint. It was not the Republicans.

I had to go look for this one.
Confusing? Gee.....Looks really difficult to me, the arrow points right to the correct hole to punch for whoever they are choosing.



Maybe if a bunch of them had stabbed themselves in head with that tool before voting....LOL!
Perhaps a training session along with the competency test

[CJ7]

one things for sure Gore would never gone to Iraq, so yes I think Gore would have been a better POTUS ... to the tune of $12 billion a month for over a decade

Ron Klain (Kevin Spacey): "How hard is it to punch a paper ballot?"
Michael Whouley (Denis Leary): "It's pretty God damn hard when you're eighty something years old, you're arthritic, and you're blind as a fucking bat. Unfortunately for us, blind fucking bats tend to vote Democratic."

You must be deaf, dumb and blind to make such an outrageous statement. The choice was like day or night.

Do you really think any other President would have taken this country into an elective and unfunded war like Bush did?

There is no way that Gore or any other President would have gone into that stinking quagmire nor would he have approved all those tax cuts to the wealthy that drained our treasury.

. . . Maybe it was the fact that Bush fucked up this country so badly that made it possible for Barack Obama to become President and frankly, I think he has done an admirable job in getting this country back on track!

If anyone thinks that Gore would have been a better president than W is delusional. Gore would have been equally as bad. There wasn't a true choice between Bush and Gore.

Seems like that is what Odumbo did when he attacked Libya! Plus, Odumbo has involved the U.S. in Syria's civil war and has committed U.S. military assets to actions in several African and Southwest Asian nations.

BTW, Al Qaeda attacked the U.S., not vice versa.

look, I think Bush won fair and square, but you gotta admit, wasn't to many folks in Palm Beach Co voting for Pat Buchanan! And fuc Sandra Day for stepping down and letting Bush appoint a god damn fascist justice!

[Arverni]

Who gives a shit about the 2000 election? That was 13 years ago.

It all worked out for the best - since we later found out that Al Gore is a complete psychopath and G.W. Bush only marginally less so.

Cheers to the lesser of two evils!

It's still fun to see FastGoon's outrage!
