Democrats will do anything to stay in power

It is amazing watching how these disingenuous Democrats will do anything in order to hold onto power. The votes in Florida have been counted by unbiased machines and then recounted by the same machines. In both instances, Governor George W. Bush has come out with the lead.

Two counties in Florida, Miami-Dade and Broward, have decided against a hand recount and the Gore campaign is suing them, both of which are heavily Democratic, to force them to do a hand recount. They will stop at nothing in order to win, including suing their own people.

Secretary of State, Katherine Harris, made her intentions known that she would uphold state law and require county voter certification to be submitted by 5 p.m. Tuesday, Nov. 14. This did not please the Democrats, so here comes all these derogatory newspaper articles about Mrs. Harris in the Washington Post, New York Times, USA Today, and all major television media in an effort to label her partisan and incompetent. Yet nothing is said about Florida Attorney General Bob Butterworth who just happens to have been Gore's state campaign manager. What a hypocritical crock.

A world renowned Democrat said earlier this century, "Those who cast the votes decide nothing! Those who count the votes decide everything!" That might explain Gore's replacement of three or four campaign managers until he settled on Bill Daly, the son of ballot box stuffer extraordinaire, and former Chicago mayor, Richard J. Daly.

The Democrat who uttered the words listed above was none other than Joseph Stalin. For all you Palm Beach voters, Stalin was the former President of Communist Russia, who was known to have murdered over 20 million political opponents during his reign of terror. At least Democrats in America only murder their opponent's character but they are just as despicable.
