Bush won the election by every recount so far - have you found a different
result? I would like to see it. I am not some blind follower of Bush but I'm
getting tired of this stupid "Bush stole the election" crap. What happened
in Florida was absurd, but the result has been verify many times.

Perhaps you are unaware that the the Republicam members of the Supreme Court
stopped the recount.

Well, that would be because the recount was being performed in violation of
state and federal law in a biased manner that threatened the accuracy of the
election, and therefore the recount was ruled to be unlawful. The Supreme
Court is neither Republican nor Democrat, it's a neutral body that rules on
the law, not on politics.

True or false: it was the Republican appointees to the Supreme Court that
voted to stop the recount.


As to what every recount so far has to say, it depends on who you ask. For

However, the ultimate arbiter has spoken. Clinton and Kerry both lost.

Actually, Clinton won.

I think you mean Al Gore.

And as mentioned, thanks to the Republican appointees the Supreme Court who
halted the recount, it will forever be known as the election that George W
Bush stole.
