It's like handing over your car keys to a blind man. Come on we all knew Bush was stupid when he first showed up in '98.
Try the Supreme Court that placed him in office.Trajan Octavian Titus said:Oh you mean the writers of the constitution who declared that the electoral college and not the popular vote will decide the winner of a presidential election . . . those bastards! :roll:
Wow...jfuh said:Try the Supreme Court that placed him in office.

I was hoping there wern't anyone left that would suck this stuff from from the teat of the DNC, but I assumed wrong...
Would you care to expalin what the Supreme Court ruled on...specifically?...
Give us actual details to back up your claim...A claim which has been debunked multiple times over...
I had a feeling YOU would know it...I was wondering if the newbie could show it and understand it...:shrug:Trajan Octavian Titus said:Due to the narrow margin of the original vote count, Florida law mandated a statewide recount. In addition, the Gore campaign requested that the votes in three counties be recounted by hand. Florida state law (F.S. Ch. 102.166) at the time allowed the candidate to request a manual recount by protesting the results of at least three precincts. The county canvassing board then decides whether or not to recount (F.S. Ch. 102.166 Part 4) as well as the method of the recount in those three precincts. If the board discovers an error, they are then authorized to recount the ballots (F.S. Ch. 102.166 Part 5). The canvassing board did not discover any errors in the tabulation process in the initial mandated recount. The Bush campaign sued to prevent additional recounts on the basis that no errors were found in the tabulation method until subjective measures were applied in manual recounts. This case eventually reached the United States Supreme Court, which ruled 5-4 to stop the vote recount, which allowed Florida Secretary of State Katherine Harris, a Republican, to certify the election results. This allowed Florida's electoral votes to be cast for Bush, making him the winner. Seven of the nine Justices agreed that the lack of unified standards in counting votes violated the Constitutional guarantee of equal protection, but five agreed that there was insufficient time to impose a unified standard and that the recounts should therefore be stopped.

Damn Supreme Court following the law how dare they.
Yes, yes, yes...Che said:You know studies show that Gore won Florida under any circumstance
Also bush is prone to impeachment for NSA scandal
cnredd said:Yes, yes, yes...
And the moon is made of cheese and there are little grren men that live on Mars...
A comprehensive review of the uncounted Florida ballots from last year's presidential election reveals that George W. Bush would have won even if the United States Supreme Court had allowed the statewide manual recount of the votes that the Florida Supreme Court had ordered to go forward.
Contrary to what many partisans of former Vice President Al Gore have charged, the United States Supreme Court did not award an election to Mr. Bush that otherwise would have been won by Mr. Gore. A close examination of the ballots found that Mr. Bush would have retained a slender margin over Mr. Gore if the Florida court's order to recount more than 43,000 ballots had not been reversed by the United States Supreme
Court.
Even under the strategy that Mr. Gore pursued at the beginning of the Florida standoff — filing suit to force hand recounts in four predominantly Democratic counties — Mr. Bush would have kept his lead, according to the ballot review conducted for a consortium of news organizations.

Were waiting for Congress to go down to the local sporting goods store and pick themselves up a set of balls.Originally Posted by KCConservative:
I have heard of this impeachment for five years now - ever since he was accused of stealing the 2000 election. Since then, the list of trumped up scandals has become a mile long and still, he isn't impeached. What's taking so long, guys?

I really don't see any difference between dems and reps. They both answer to the same class of people and continue policies from the previous administration. Clinton continued everything Reagan and Carter put on the table. Bush did the same. And Kerry would have too. It's only the faces that change. And who's fault is that? Ours!Originally Posted by kal-el:
Yes, this Congress has no spine at all. Impeachment will not happen while we have a Republican Congress. George Bush can practically "walk on water."

SixStringHero said:Still insisting the president of the United States is a complete blithering idiot?
Doesn't that sentence just strike you as insulting?
If not, it should.
Your saying the president of our country is an idiot.
I may not agree with Bush on a lot of things, but the last thing I think is that he is an idiot. Far from it.
kal-el said:Keen observation. Nothing gets by you.:lol:
Not in the least. Why would it be insulting?
C'mon. It's not even being judgemental labeleing him an "idiot", based on his actions, and the way in which he mangles words like someone with Tourrette Syndrome, it's a perfectly reasonable assumption to make.
Again, nothing gets by you.
Far from it, huh? Yea, his education was expensive, but if you just observe him, one could come to the conclusion that he treated it casually. It seems everytime he opens his mouth, he shows everyone how he mangles the English language. Here's some of your intellectual giant's words:
"I have made good judgments in the past. I have made good judgments in the future."
"I stand by all the mistatements that I've made."
"Well, I think if you say you're going to do something and don't do it, that's trustworthiness."

Those are funny quotes to be sure, but to me that doesn't represent the abundance or brevity of his intellect.

kal-el said:Are you ****ing kidding me? Dude, he talks like he has dyslexia. His remarks attain levels of supreme idiocy unmatched by any prior President. abundance or brevity of his intellect- Ha. Would you call a man intelligent if he stole elections, turned budget surplus's into deficits, waged a war on jobs, and waged a war based on a voice he hears in his head? He has brought great devestation at home and abroad.
