Newspaper Recount Didn't Count All Votes: Washington Post Misreported Its Own Study

Human Events ^ | The Week of November 19, 2001 | Timothy P. Carney

The ballots that were double punched were 50 to 1 black Republicans. In other words, the democrats cheated. They double punched ballots to invalidate Bush votes.

Does the media care. Do they only report lies that support their position?

How many angels can dance on the head of a pin?

It's amazing that people are dedicated to and can make a living examining hair splitting events and stretching credulity beyond the absurd. You can't wear, eat, or enjoy the product of their efforts. What a gross waste of human effort.

Once again, NO MENTION OF THE DISQUALIFIED ABSENTEE (MILITARY) VOTES.

So, the headline should have been the following:
Florida Re-Count Shows Gore May Have Won, If Only Votes For Gore Were Counted!

[Howlin]

I think we need to count again

I'm sure they've already started. Hell, for all we know, they could still be voting!

[dead]

Can you source that statement?

[Mr. K]

exactly! That is why they had that STUPID hole punch ballot.

Line up a stack of them, punch a pencil through your guys name and viola! All votes for your guy stay good, and all votes for Bush end up 'double punched'.

[Bush2000]

In a recent poll, some 78% believe that we will never know the real tally. The media played up this statistic in order to make it seem that public perceptions translate to a subtle win for Gore. But, in the same polling, the same number believe that we should drop the matter and embrace Bush as our commander-in-chief. It's time to stop counting. We've wasted far too much time on a matter that is now moot. The reason that the Democrats are pursuing this matter is to try and invalidate Bush's mandate and lay the groundwork for 2004. We should just keep telling them, "It's time to move on. Get on the bus with the rest of the team and go in for the big win..."

[A CA Guy]

On the issue of thrown out military ballots, what the heck happened there? Did they find and add them in? Did they exclude them all? Perhaps thousands that would be mostly for Bush? THIS I WOULD WANT TO KNOW!

Anyone out there have knowledge of any attempt to find this information out regarding the military vote?

This issue I would love to be better informed on and anyone who does so for me gets the merit of doing their good deed for the day!

THANKS!

[ChadGore]

OK, so MORE THAN ONE YEAR after the votes are counted and counted and counted again, and Bush keeps winning and winning and winning again, and now they find "new votes" ???? ?? ? ?

[68-69TonkinGulfYachtClub]

"Does the media care. Do they only report lies that support their position?"

If you recall BEFORE election night Drudge bragged how he would release VNS Poll data BEFORE the networks did.
Sure enough, before the 2nd time zone in FL closed he "announced" Gore won.
Then Fox, according to O'Reilly, was the 1st network to "announce" Gore won before the FL polls had closed.
On election night I was at a friends house while she was on the State of FL election return site,
it showed Bush ahead while Fox and everyone else said Gore won.
I wonder how many Bush votes were lost by the 2nd time zone due to Drudge, Fox etc.

[white rose]

This is all becoming downright comical. I fully expected to hear later on that this "media consortium" finally brought in oracles to read tea leaves and the I Ching for them.

[Penny1]

Someone please explain to me how come no one in the press talks about the fact that the only way Gore wins is if all undervotes and overvotes (i.e. all ILLEGAL votes) are tallied as votes for Gore.

This is all so darned stupid--there's a reason illegal votes are determined to be illegal--because it can't be determined who the voter voted for. Someone should start writing stories about how Bush wins Florida in a landslide if one counts all the votes that were for him that were then invalidated by a double-punched ballot. But we'll never hear THAT in the mainstream press...

It's really rather frightening, IMO, to see that fraud perpetrated by the libs will be silenced by the press and the truth will then be hidden from the people.... The idea of a "free press" is only an illusion, and it's a bit scarey if you ask me....
