Actually, they did not count all the votes. Even admitted it. Hence, there is nothing to "get over."
Nor are you willing to admit the fact that many were illegally excluded from voting (anywhere from 8000 to 20000). Tell the folks who were not allowed to vote the GWB is "legitimate." Tell 51% of the people who actually did have their "votes" "counted".
well, not everyone agrees that G.W. Bush is the legitimate "president" of the U.S. Perhaps the FBI and the D.O.J. should investigate the violations of the Voting Rights Act, alledged to have occurred in Florida. Recount all the votes, as the Florida Supreme Court ordered, and the US Supreme Court stopped.
The breach of security occurred on the part of the Canadians, not the US, anyway. And no such information regarding G.W. Bush's itinerary could be found on Indymedia, either. So, it really appears to be a ploy to get at IMC's logs and records, not an honest investigation.
The G-men have made several mistakes, and are trying to make IMC pay the price for those mistakes (not that this would be unusual...).
Yes, it is media. The fact that "ANYONE" is allowed to post does not imply it is not news, not media. The IMC, as far as i have been able to tell, has never wanted to be the same as TV or "news reporters" (what does that mean, newspapers?? ). Being the same as TV news is not the goal of IMC; rather quite the opposite, it is intended to provide news that may not be found on corporately-owned news sources, such as CNN, NY Times, et al. "Independent" does not mean "unbiased", either. That also is a common misperception.
Not only does IMC allow "ANYONE" to be press, it seems to be a founding principle: "don't hate the media, become the media". So IMC is not defining *who* is and who is not press; I would hope that in the legal matters, it does not allow the courts to think they can determine it either. Simply having a paycheck from some 'official' news agency does not imply one is "press". That concept, in and of itself, needs to be quesioned as seriously misinformed.

GWB is not a legitimate pResident.
Get over it.
