It was a coin toss where the coin landed on the third side, the edge. We really don't know who actually won Florida, it depends on how you count 'em. The rules in place made Bush the winner. Some people just can't deal with it.
Remember Gore and the D's during the 2000 campaign. They kept saying everything was hunky dory and Bush's warnings about an impending recesion was just his atempt at "talking down the economy".
I guess we know now which party knows more about economics.
Before you mention McVeigh and Nichols keep in mind they were two loners without 10's if not hundreds of millions of supporters. Radical Muslim Arabs are a blight upon humanity and are determined to kill as many innocent people as possible. Look at what the Arabs did in Russia, shooting kids in the back and blowing them up.
When was the last time you saw mormons doing that?
You didn't address Woodward, that's fine. The point remains that Kerry has avoided the press for over a month. That's quite odd, and should make anyone interested in his positions suspicious.
Bush sat down eith Tim Russert for an hour on Meet the Press. He met with Bob Woodward for several hours. Kerry is still trying to figure out why he's running so he hasn't taken questions from the press for over a month.
I keep hearing about how the temperature is signifigantly higher than it used to be but never see it reported what the mean and standard deviation of what the global temperature actually is.
Because as it has become apparent, it certainly had nothing to do with weapons of mass destruction, nor with 'liberating' the Iraqi people. Or if it did, it was executed so incompetently that claiming an ulterior motive is almost charitable.
You do realize that in the real world not everything is wrapped up in 30 minutes with a happy ending? Nobody knows how Iraq will turn out, however calling it a failure as the first free election in the craddle of civilization is about to occur this January seems a bit short sighted.
If you're really an attorney you should know better than to be providing legal advice on a subject as serious as self defense when you don't know what you're talking about.
While there may be a common law standard that applies in jurisdictions without relevant statutes, most states do have very specific laws concerning this matter. My state, Texas, specificaly allows the use of lethal force:
Texas Penal code S9.32
"A person is justified in using deadly force against another to protect land or tangible, movable property"
So please keep your unimformed legal musings to yourself.
Specificaly I was referring to the deployment of the MX Missile in europe. The Usual suspects of pinko's, anarchists and their sympathisers cried that this would bring nuclear war. Thankfuly he didn't listened and went ahead.
You are correct that when Gorbechev came to power Reagan decided that he was a reasonable man that could be worked with, however that doesn't describe most of the leftist eurotrash that did, does, and always will hate America.

You try counting to 20 million twice and see if you can do it without error. Good luck
You mean the felons? Cry me a river.
about myself. Thanks.
You have read Bush v Gore haven't you?.
I guess you represent the prevailing mindset of the left, that some of us are more equal than others.

Monitors only go to 3rd world contries when asked by the host countries. It's a way of demonstrating to the world their legitamacy.
The US has no need to do this. 2000 was an anomoly where the results were so close that the differential was within the margin of error.
The rules in place, ie the Constitution, mandated that Bush win the election. The Sore/Losermen were full of sour grapes and cried foul.
Since most of us on /. use Windows, are there any flag-free HDTV cards for it?
For a McRaise. High-end is about $500 so $200 is midrange. If you can't afford it, then sucks2bu.
IT job with Fortune 500 company. Easy ass job, really nice group. Why move to DC?

Oh you mean the guy who worked for Citigroup and helped Enron swindle billions?
Or Rubin the Sec of Treasury who did nothing while the biggest stock market bubble in history was inflating?
Rubin has 0 credibility.
How can we know it's so?
I'd start with three independant environmental impact statements, and follow up with fining the responsible parties $US 1 billion each
Why not 30 impact statements and 1 million billion in fines?
What are you trying to accomplish? What good are a bunch of silly environmental impact studies going to do?

Just moved to Houston. Looked for 3 weeks. Got a good offer. Accepted. If they've been looking 3.5 years they must be doing something wrong.

Is there no shame left?

a Bittorrent site. I't the best by far.
Most Linux HOWTO's are horribly out of date. Many aren't even updated for 2.4. Not terribly usefull unless you want a historical perspective.
You know he actually could have made quite a bit of money selling the mat to the /. crowd. Maybe he wasn't such a loser.
