Ask Dan Rather. He can Google it.

Nice.

Still. Where's proof? It isn't really there.

Truth is, I really don't care anymore. It seems that facts are increasingly meaningless and we all have a touch of fatigue from the constant outrages pouring out of this administration and all of those before it. If we don't like information, we attack the source. If we can't attack the source, we attack the messenger. If the messenger refuses to back down, we ignore him. Along the way, truth becomes lost in the white noise.

Out of all the crap listed, we are giving attention to the least important, his election and his national service.

I am more pissed at stuff like the record deficit and we are still currently spending and borrowing, and also
this one line here, which hits the nail on the head.
I garnered the most sympathy for the U.S. after the World Trade Center attacks and less than a year later made the U.S.
the most hated country in the world, the largest failure of diplomacy in world history.


There is lots of worst crap going on with this adminstration than a national guard record, but I guess its no problem to the clowns that support him.

No, I certainly don't think Bush was involved with caging in earlier elections. To be precise about it, I don't think BUSH is involved in much. I think he's getting his strings pulled more often than not.

Here's some more stuff if you're feeling curious, Fleet.

BBC News Proves Bush Stole 2000 Election in Florida - LiveVideo.com (http://www.livevideo.com/video/07A706969DDC472B9F69A8171D0DB4C4/bbc-news-proves-bush-stole-200.aspx - broken link)
Lol... BBC!
A few things about that video:
They mention the "difficult" butterfly ballot, which wasn't difficult at all when a class of 10-year-olds were asked to vote for their favorite Disney character. Every child voted properly; made no mistakes on who they voted for. Maybe only children should vote in Florida!

The video doesn't mention the fact that tens of thousands of Republican votes were not counted because of ballot errors. It only mentions the Democrat votes not counted! Strange, huh?

Then the video mentions the "fact" that 22,000 black voters were excluded... where are the lawsuits or officially registered complaints from all of these voters?

Come on... Bush won in 2000 and 2004. The End!

His released military records show that he put in slightly more hours than was required for his Texas Air National Guard duty.

Classic! Palm Beach County has a very large elderly, very Jewish population hailing from the Northeast, particularly New York.

It doesn't seem the LEAST bit strange that PAT BUCHANAN got soooo many votes in those districts?


If I were one of the last remaining "baby eating Bush" supporters (those that would justify and stick up for Dubya if he ate a live baby on National television), I would be ASHAMED that Bush "won" on a technicality - stupid voters, stupid ballots, or otherwise.

I can't believe people are still defending this obvious and proven monkey brain.

Really? How about your beloved Bill Clinton who was convicted of perjury and lost his law license in AR BEFORE he became president and then commited perjury AGAIN and used his corrupt US DOJ to avoid punishment?

Your post is poorly written and so misleading, It is hardly worth responding. I just wasted 5 mins reading and replying. You should be sued for wasting people's valuable time with false info.

You mean the person who nominated Gore and Kerry to run against Bush, in full knowledge that they were even less appealing than Dubya?

Actually, I think that was a whole committee.

I noticed there were no complaints about rigged voting machines and Diebold conspiracies after the '06 elections. Amazing.
