Of course, I clarified that in the post immediately following the one you replied to. My clarification, in its entirety, is presented immediately below.

But of course you read this clarification, and chose to ignore it. This is the kind of cheap spin, distortion, and outright lies made famous by the Bush gang.

Imagine - those guys put out a full-on media campaign promoting outright lies to drive our nation a bloody and costly war, and then viciously attack the family of a man who exposed their lies.

Fortunately, some courageous, decent people of principle have had enough of these shameful Republican schemes and tactics, and are working to indict and prosecute these malefactors and bring them to justice - Delay, Rove, Libby, Cheney, Frist... In order to heal, America must bear the stench of corruption and face this foulness for what it is.

Between the prosecutors and investigators and the electorate, America will soon be taking out the trash.


>>When the full picture is looked at objectively, this was arguably the greatest travesty of justice in the 20th century<<

To clarify here, I am speaking of the United States judiciary. Moreover, while there may have been instances of more blatant or flagrant abuses of Justice in the history of the court in this century, none has had more far-reaching consequences than the 2000 presidential selection.

Maybe instead of your guy Gore asking for another state-wide hand recount instead of hand-picking the ones where he would gain an unfair majority, the case would have been allowed to further continue. As I recall the 5-4 verdict was issued based on time restraints while the 7-2 verdict came about as a fundamental constitutional fairness and equal protection.

You may want to "spin" the facts and use 5-4 as your arguement, but the truth is there was a 7-2 decision in favor of Bush. No where have you mention, nor do I believe you will mention due to the fact it doesn't go along with your "agenda", thus making your remarks about unfair judiciary of the Supreme Court, your travesty of justice.

I can equally say that Roe V. Wade, another 5-4 decision, is a travesty that trumps way beyond whatever implications Bush V. Gore could ever have. You do not hear me crying and whining about this years after the fact. I am merely pointing out that this is possibly the most tragic event in our history of 20th Century Justice, one you clearly ignore based on your political agenda.

If a mother kills her own child is is abortion, but if I kill it without her concent it is murder. How is your tragedy more tragic than that? This is the problem conservatives have with liberals, is anytime they do not win it is a tragedy while us conservatives roll with the punches.
