Bush's Re-Election May Be Challenged

Presidential Vote Certification Faces Objection
WASHINGTON — When the joint session of Congress meets Thursday to certify the Electoral College votes that gave President Bush his second term, several Democratic House members are expected to contest the results.

They may also find support from Sen. Barbara Boxer (search), D-Calif., whose participation under congressional rules would then require senators and representatives to recess to their respective chambers to debate certification.

The action would be the first of its kind in 36 years, but most likely won't add up to more than a procedural delay of the inevitable.

According to the choreography of the certification, after the House is called to order and the senators arrive from their chamber, the joint session begins with Vice President Dick Cheney (search) leading the activities.

The "certificates of vote" from each of the states will be called out and the number of votes designated for president and vice president will be reported on four separate paper tallies. At the end of the reading of all 50 states and the District of Columbia's votes, the four tellers responsible for recording the tallies will compare results and sign off on them. Cheney will then announce the totals and order them into the record.

Let those poor bastards challenge the electoral vote in Ohio later today. It might be the final nail in their coffin because all the challenge will do is open the challenge up for a 2 hour debate and then a vote on whether the challenge has any merit. We control both houses of Congress and the challenge will be shot down. But the democrats will be shown for the sore losers they are, and America does not like sore losers

I like your tagline. That about sums it up for me.

The democrats might have been elected if they hadn't overplayed their hand.

Once again they lofted the McGovern candidate, and by golly, once again it didn't work.

Watch for an ingnorant governor from one of the smaller states, with big teeth and a country bumpkin mannor in 2008. Or watch as the McGovern/Kerry/Hillary trifecta gets flushed to the end of the national sewer line.

I would imagine Robert Byrd will be in there somewhere. He wants to sell more of his books.

What else can the looney RATS dream up to make themselves look more foolish and insignificant!

They keep digging the hole deeper.

Boxer seems to be agressively competing with Pat Murray for the honor of being the dimmest bulb in the Senate.

In all my life I have never seen the democrats this far out of touch with the mainstream. I credit this to those on our side who do not subscribe to this political correct nonsense the left has based their platform on.

I truly believe that talk radio and FOX NEWS has done this country a great service, not to mention the Internet. No longer are we prisoners to the "Big Three" media outlets that pandered to the left wing agenda

From the archives, 4 1/2 years ago ---

MIDI - THE BOXER -- scroll about 60% of the way down and it's by the other Simon and Garfunkel songs

Her name’s Barbara Boxer…maybe freedom’s greatest foe
She’s a far-left stinking big mouth
That is something both my canines, George and Kramer know

When they hear her…something awful starts to happen…I can see they’re feeling ill
Where’s their pill…they are ill…physically ill

She’s now whining all about energy…and she’s really in a huff
All those evil, greedy people…they are milking everybody dry…they’ve made enough

But, oh my…she invests in Haliburton at the same time she has cried
She is making tens of thousands on the side

Give it back…what a shameless lying hack…give it back
It is time to give it back…give your profit back

It is really not surprising…a Red doper diaper babe…that has been her training
There’s two words that come to mind, they’re “fellow traveler”

She had learned young that the end will justify the means
You get ahead with lies…there can be no compromise

(musical interlude)

Give it back…what a shameless lying hack…give it back
It is time to give it back…give your profit back

As is typical she’s hiding things…we felt it in our gut…in our gut
You can trust her just as far as you could throw her butt
She’d sell herself…like a slut

Karl Marx and Scumbag Clinton are the men she’s most admired
She’s a character from Orwell…she thinks she's in charge of the whole farm
With passion hear her cry out, “I’m more equal than the rest
If you send in all your money, I will spend it for what’s best…what is best”

Give it back…what a shameless lying hack…give it back
It is time to give it back…give your profit back

What a shameless lying hack…give it back
It is time to give it back…give your profit back

What a shameless lying hack…give it back
It is time to give it back…give your profit back

What a shameless lying hack…give it back
It is time to give it back…give your profit back

What a shameless lying hack…give it back
It is time to give it back…give your profit back

What a shameless lying hack…give it back
It is time to give it back…give your profit back

What a shameless lying hack…give it back
It is time to give it back…give your profit back

What a shameless lying hack…give it back
It is time to give it back…give your profit back

What a shameless lying hack…give it back
It is time to give it back…give your profit back

I can't find the article about it .. but here is one similar from a few years back over the PBA Bill

He nailed her butt during the recent debate of the PBA Bill, just like he did back then

They might challenge gravity, by leaping off the Empire State Building, with the same likelihood of success.
