Your guy won by 500 votes (?)

An opportune time to bring back up the voter fraud that happened in
Florida. The right likes to make jokes about the stupid voters in
Palm Beach county, but thousands of black voters in other counties
either were denied the right to vote, or had their vote thrown out.

"No county produced more spoiled ballots than Duval - nearly 27,000 -
and they were concentrated in African-American neighborhoods. An
estimated one in five black votes was tossed out in Duval, three times
the rate of white votes."

Little doubt this was pure fraud. Little doubt in was facilitated by
Republicans with the approval of the presidents brother. Little doubt
if these votes had been counted, Bush would not be the president.

last time around, and thought it was a mandate to
take the country ridiculously to the right.

For me, that's the part that is the hardest to take. Mandate my ass,
he didn't even win the election.
