Clintons and other left-wing liars [what I KNOW about election 2000]
Precinct counts, voting machine data, AP election data, eye-witnesses....etc. | August 20, 2003 | Me

Posted on 08/20/2003 2:05:40 PM PDT by Ragtime Cowgirl

As a Florida Republican, I listened to the press lie through the 2000 recounts, pause for an obscenely short time after 9-11, and pick up the refrain - the campaign of lies..."Gore won" "Bush is selected."

Remember when the press "discovered" the old mildly-intoxicated-while-driving Bush "scandal" a week before the election? Coincidentally, earlier that same day, Janet Reno told the press that she would be opening an investigation into Al Gore's pulling the plug on a multi-year drug investigation (after the Houston detectives cried foul at the cover-up) because the #1 suspect made a BIG $$$ donation to Al's campaign. A mob of "mainstream" journalists chased the ancient DUI story. The Washington Times reported the Gore story, too.

When I asked a local SW Florida NBC-TV news manager why the Gore story was being covered-up, following three days of "DUI" coverage into the weekend before election day, this news boss said of the Washington Times, "That right-wing rag?! It's owned by the Moonies." I asked him whether he believed that Janet Reno would grant the Washington Times an exclusive? He conceded the point, but no mention of the Gore story appeared on his news channel or in the mainstream media. No daily reports from NBC, CBS, ABC, MSNBC, CNN, NY Times, Washington Post, LA Times, Boston Globe, NPR + the INTER-national press - or press mobs chasing Gore across parking lots demanding that he spill all.

Can we say "left-wing" media? Popular vote?

Florida Republicans fought the attempted election theft by the Florida Dem. election machine and their army of lawyers who descended on our fair state during election 2000. Surprise, we didn't let them steal the election. We bypassed the DNC press and informed ourselves and our neighbors. We now have the internet, can go directly to sources and share information with neighbors and friends.

 
Two years later: Fla., pre-election 2002:
 
 "Jeb is gone!" Mr. McAuliffe declared brazenly, brushing aside the determination of the White House to protect the president's brother. "There won't be anything as devastating to President Bush as his brother's losing in Florida."    --Terry McAuliffe, DNC Chairman, NY Times, Oct. 23, 2002
 
Dem leaders based election 2002 on the revenge of the disenfranchised Dem 2000 voters.
 
On Nov. 5, 2002, Florida voters, both Republican and Democrat, voted fair and square (again) and 1) re-elected Jeb Bush - first Republican Governor re-elected in Florida's history; 2) elected Katherine Harris to Congress; 3) elected a 100% Republican Cabinet; 4) elected a majority of Republicans to the Florida House;  5) didn't elect Al Gore's Fla. campaign manager and former Fla. A.G. Bob Butterworth or 6) Carol Roberts, Palm Beach County Democrat and election accuser; 7) Republicans took back the federal Senate; 8) Republican Governors won across the nation.
 
After being told by the DNC leaders that Florida voters would turn out in droves to avenge election 2000 - Florida voters did turn out and overwhelmingly validated election 2000.
 
How did the 'unbiased press' deal with this PRO-GOP election?  By giving "we the people" a week of NANCY PELOSI, newly elected Democrat House minority leader.
 

Some of what the left-wing media left out of the 2000 election re-re-recount coverage:

While the Democrats are still blaming those Votomatic punch card machines (like the one in Palm Beach) for Gore's loss, it was Bush who was hurt in the Votomatic counties...including my Republican Lee County. Impeachment manager Bill McCollum received more votes for Senate than did George W. Bush for President in Lee, Palm Beach, Charlotte counties. Think about that. Voters voted for Bill McCollum and Al Gore?

Oh, and those "hick" counties, the "red" counties in Florida with fewer than 10,000 voters? All but one of those 22 Florida counties voted for BUSH and they are ALL Democrat-majority counties with Dem. election personnel...and ALL recounted (as did EVERY county in Florida (just not 2 or 3 times 'til ballots could be manipulated for Gore))- and the HONEST Democrats in the small Florida counties showed mostly single digit changes in the recounts, mostly insignificant. As a friend said, "my Democratic neighbors are southern Democrats with family values and they don't trust Gore."

Did you hear of a Republican* voting twice? Republican* felons voting in large blocks? Republican* illegal immigrants? Republicans* in nursing homes and hospitals "helping" incompetent patients vote? Republicans* adding non-resident names to the voting rosters at the polling locations? Republicans* poking holes in ballots/ eating chads? Writing books about recounts and how to win elections by manipulating ballots? Did Republicans* have a GOTV center set up in a Palm Beach law office, with "ballot protest" forms and a telecom company (a little bankrupt firm called Telequest that sold to a company from India days later for millions $$), set up in advance, as well as a team of lawyers ready to put the "recount" campaign in place? Did a Republican* lawyer lie about an Illinois "dimple decision" to the national press and in court? Did Republicans* go into the inner cities and tell the voters that George W. Bush would send them back to slavery? Did a Republican* Florida Supreme Court ignore existing state law to allow carefully selected Republican* counties  recounts, and then change the laws as it was necessary to help Republicans*? Did a Republican* send a memo to every one of 67 counties - not based on Florida law - telling poll workers how to disqualify military ballots? Did Republicans* prevent over  500 Florida students from Liberty University (Jerry Falwell's school) from receiving their absentee ballots? Did Republicans* misdirect military mail? Make it exceedingly difficult for military overseas to vote? Did the Republican* press cover up the massive Dem. dirty tricks? Did a Republican* Florida elect our Republican House, Republican Governor and GHW Bush over Bill Clinton in 1992? Is the Republican* press still lying?


No.

* Democrat(s)

The false charge of "racism" was the most destructive lie of all...the DNC knew exactly how that lie would play in the inner cities where they frightened young children and incited hatred. Teachers and parents comforted children who were  terrified that Pres. Bush would make them slaves.

"Racist" Republican Bush was a topic of discussion at the UN conference on racism, where American "civil rights" "leaders" carried out their post-election 2000 campaign of deceit in front of an international audience and sympathetic left-wing press.

Leaders from over 180 nations  listened as speakers railed against the "racist" American leadership during a week of Bush, American and Israel bashing, taking home the message to their respective countries. What enemy of America wouldn't be encouraged by this display of international enmity against US? The UN "racism" conference ended two days before 9-11-01.

Don't bother trying to find this info in America's textbooks, University websites, press accounts. You probably won't find the AP graph showing the before and after recount totals from all 67 Florida counties, and the Palm Beach voting records? Accidentally destroyed.

At the end of the day, election 2002 was the smoking gun that exposed both the lack of gravitas and pattern of deceit by a puffed-up, partisan far-left press, international PR agents of the shady, scheming, mean-spirited socialists, bullies, despots and scoundrels - aka the Vast Left-Wing Conspiracy.

Did you hear Rush talking about this last week ..?? Rush said he could not figure out why people were still following the Clintons. They have lost the House and Senate, the WH, and 2/3 of the people he campaigned for in 2002 lost their election.

I'm really expecting it to be worse in 2004 than it was in 2000 .. the democrats have more to lose than ever before. I believe we are going to see an unprecedented landslide. However, even with that, I get this sense the dems are going to pull out all the stops and they will be doing ANYTHING - AT ANY COST to win. If they don't win, they will be out of power for 40-50 years - which is a great incentive for corruption.

But .. the dems are so power hungry it all may backfire on them. Their continual "it's all Bush's fault" is already wearing very thin (and causes eyerolling); and we're quite a few months to the election.

hey RC, yes I would be completely interested! Information such as this, along with relevant sources, are consolidated and copied via my CD-burner... multiple copies. I then keep them handy for those conversations I get into with the host of Leftists I live amongst. When they come up with some bogus/BS claim relating to the material, I give them one of the CD's.

They don't normally come back to me for further discussions... I take that as a sign that they can't handle well-researched arguments, much less the truth.

they're so brainwashed it wouldn't even phase them.

I think we have a chance of swaying many of the 33% in the middle who care about the troops, God, family and country and haven't been paying close enough attention to politics.

You know if you grow up in America, watch American TV and movies, read American papers, go to American schools - without adult guidance and instruction - you are, as an American, a brainwashed, left-wing useful idiot by the time you reach adulthood.

Then something shocking happens: Clinton and Juanita, Elian Gonzalez, a judge ruling against 'Under God', 9-11, Hollywood's betrayal, the pro-UN/anti-American press coverage of the war in Iraq...and Americans start paying attention. Some even find FR.

You do know the scum aided by the Clinton's are setting the very same senario up in California right now.

Sure do, ladyinred.

Dems. have been spreading the 'illegitimate' lie during the California recall election, Texas redistricting, campaigning from pres. candidates pushing a "bash-Bush / anti-American platform". They've been telling OUR ENEMIES while traveling overseas during wartime.

Sen. Graham - Intel Committee, Hillary Clinton - Armed Services Committee - access to classified data - challenging our CIC's legitimacy while talking with non-allied nations during wartime.

The DNC is intentionally working to weaken America on the world stage for partisan power's sake.

Thank you for those kind words. I must humbly confess that this one has been sent and resent, polished and reworked so many times in the past two years it is far more worthy than my usual rants.

I do try to be accurate with data and numbers,

and have a pretty good bead on the opposition. (^;

This is what happened. It's too bad that most of America doesn't know or remember this.

The DNC is a criminal enterprise.

CG, check your Freepmail. That'll do for the short term - the recall fight. Frankly, most of this can be verified rather easily with little research on the net. I say that for our opponents who mostly, as one, follow the same dishonest talking points and never bother to question the accuracy - including our esteemed American poli profs.

Just got back online after being knocked off twice today.

What I'm mostly concerned with today is getting out the truth about the situation on the ground in Iraq. The press is lying daily and the troops have very few voices speaking for them out here. Our usual conservative pundits are listening to armchair experts and the AP wires - not CENTCOM and the troops.

When America and our enemies KNOW that we are not only winning in Iraq - but our troops and this administration is serious about going after the bad guys - I'll spend more time on the Rats.

Have to go before I fry my computer.

Absolutely riveting. KUDOS!!! Affirming and well written.

This is NOT TO BE MISSED. This missive takes the confusion out of the mess in Florida during the election and places it where the truth resides. INCREDIBLE!!!

These are notes I made at the time about a forgotten incident.




Forgotten in the hectic closing days of the Florida fiasco is the matter of the stolen Votomatic.

It was found after the election by Palm Beach police in the car trunk of one Mr. Slosberg a Democrat politician who was not a member of any canvassing board.

Treating it as a possible theft the police dropped the case
when the Democratic leader of the Palm Beach Canvassing Board, Ms. LaPorte, decided not to press charges.

It is, obviously, entirely incorrect for this to be treated as only an attempted theft. This Votomatic could have been used to fabricate votes for Al Gore. It could have also been used to create 'overvotes' thus spoiling
any ballots that voters made for Bush. (Gang-punching votes for Gore on voters' ballots would
spoil those which were originally voted for Bush.)

It could have been used to fabricate votes in Palm Beach or in other nearby Florida counties such as Broward or Miami-Dade. It could have been used after the election or before
the election.


*******


If the RP had any sense they'd mention this any time the Dems claimed we "stole" the election. A Dem let another Dem go scot free and the Dem press ignored it. (Originally reported in Palm Beach Post but no longer accessible at their site.)

It's utterly amazing how much that's changed since I went through California schools. They still taught patriotism and under God even here in LA county. I went through elementary in the 60s, and untill I got to highschool and the hippy movement, I was taught to love America.
