So I take it you agree with the poster who termed the service people
serving the country overseas as parasites?  I suspect you have
selected an unpopular position.
The terms cowardly and unpatriotic apply to the course that Clinton
followed.
The `newspaper reporter', I take to mean a member of the Armed Forces
serving in such a capacity whether at the request of his father or
otherwise.  I do not think this disqualifies that person from voting,
do you?
I think any person serving his country in any capacity should have the
right to exercise their right to vote without harassment of
politicians such as Clinton/Algore/Lieberman (who whatever short
service can be credited to the trio belongs to Algore. even though it
was not exactly as he described).

No, I think you will find that this piece of history belongs to the
Algorew/Lieberman team in the case of three counties in south Florida.

The Supreme Kangaroos are apparently satisfied to let people think
that they pushed into the election on their own initiative. (ROFL)

Jesse Jackson and his 15,000 imported Afro-american mob don't count?
How selective you are. 
Those who gathered at places in south Florida today (in smaller
numbers) were protesting the interference with their voting rights
under the US Constitution and legitimate Florida law.  As US citizens
they have the constitutional right to do so without interference.

A lesson we all hope Jesse Jackson learns.

He is not deceived by Algore's phony self-serving ploys. Hardly
anybody is anymore. They have become all to familiar.

An exaggeration that ignores the fact that G. W. Bush received the
most votes - actually 10 times more votes than the difference that
sent LBJ to the Senate from Texas in his `landslide'.

No, no counter can judge the `intent' of the voter.  That is just
another Algore team lie.  Elections are decided by who has the most
votes in a given precinct, county, State after all the votes including
absentee ballots from members of the military are counted.  In the
present case the winner is G.W.Bush.  I'm sorry you must whine and
wring your hands over your loser, but that's the way it goes.
