CNN Reports: "The Right Man Won"

CNN | Nov. 12, 2001

[wai-ming]

Unbelievable. CNN reports, without the usual whining leftist spin, that George W. Bush won the 2000 election recount. And they called him "the right man."

[alrea]

It's finally "cool" to be right.

"I love it!"

So do I. . .Britt Hume, controlling slight smirk, offered yesterday that CNN now has agreed to use the 'terrorist word'. . .but would continue to refer to Bin Laden as a 'dissident'. . .

. . .oh well, we are seeing some small steps for truth here; and maybe more to come. . .

Trojan Horse ploy? Coax unsuspecting mainstream viewing audience into its snare and then lean to left again attempting to capture their political views!

[calmseas]

It doesn't take a rocket scientist to know that the right man won. But it just might need to have been rocket science that convinced CNN of the fact. I wonder if the rocket scientist involved would like to step forward and receive the medal of freeperdom.

Poll officials dared to ask for ID establishing the identity of a voter? What an outrage! Anyone should simply be permitted to vote in any district, at any time. Anything else is deeply offensive and probably racist!

. . . and as many times as they want . . . and whether or not they are dead . . .

[Ditto]

No kidding! I have never been asked for any ID at all when I have voted. I've always thought that you should present ID before you vote.

Ditto that. If you need it to cash a check or get on an airplane, you should also need it when performing the solom duty of voting.

Check for pea pods... ;-)

Too little too late...not fonda CNN

[openotherend]

Wow! I think I just saw a pig fly by my rocketship window!

I find this so amazing. I have ALWAYS been asked to produce either voter reg card or if I didn't have it I had to show my driver's license....and sometimes both!

The only thing I have to do is tell them my address, and if I get that right, I'm handed a ballot. Even the very first time I voted, all I needed to do was repeat my address. Seems to me fraud would be everywhere!.

[truther]

This time CNN was right, and it always was that way: when something serious comes up, conservative man, or a woman, is always the 'right man' for the job. (Remember the 'Iron Lady' Margaret?)

[SuziQ]

I find this so amazing. I have ALWAYS been asked to produce either voter reg card or if I didn't have it I had to show my driver's license....and sometimes both! It just makes sense. It ought to be mandatory to produce identification!

I don't remember EVER being asked for ID wherever I've voted. Here in MA, I'm always asked my address so they can check if the people who live at that address have voted yet. I guess if someone came in before I did and used my address, they might ask for my ID to check it out, but that's never happened. And after 14 years, the poll ladies know me anyway!

[Rightwing Conspiratr1]

I've never had to produce any identification to vote. Just had to know my name and make my mark. ;-)

I agree that something odd is going on. Maybe the terrorists have a role in this. Mental terrorism? :)

[Rightwing Conspiratr1]

And after 14 years, the poll ladies know me anyway!

Ditto that, and furthermore one of the ladies lives across the street from me and perhaps the nosiest old biddy in the neighborhood. It wouldn't be possible for anyone to commit vote fraud in her ward. ;-)

[Mannaggia l'America]

Now this. That left-leaning tower in Atlanta is starting to right itself.

Don't count on it. My guess is that they reported it this way because they are worried about backlash against the media and DemocRATs if they report it in favor of Gore.

What did Paula Zahn say?

[malakhi]

All of this is meaningless! What does DEBKA say?:)

The Chinese have taken Nebraska, and Saddam is amassing troops on the South Dakota border.
