As all of Florida's sixty-seven counties gathered last night to tally overseas absentee ballots, Gore campaign-trained operatives descended on each location with explicit instructions for disqualifying - on techicalities - as many military ballots as possible.

This is so over-the-top as to be barely comprehensible!

What happened to ensuring that every vote is counted?

And what happened to going to extraordinary means to ensure that everyone who intended to vote had their vote recorded?

After tying up the Florida election results in court for more than ten days in an effort to manufacture enough 'newly-found' Gore votes by using any means necessary, including perverting the law and long-established procedures, Democrats have now done a complete about-face by bending over backwards to prevent military votes from being counted.

Al Gore finally showed all of America who he really is: a power-hungry lowlife whose only interest is his own aggrandizement and lust for power, even at the expense of disenfranchising the very defenders of our freedom.

To walk out of his government-provided vice presidential mansion Friday night – hours before more than a thousand military ballots were to be rejected by his minions – and face the cameras with a straight face and insinuate that it is Governor George W. Bush and Secretary of State Katherine Harris who want to deny people their votes, is a downright disgrace.

Can one even begin to fathom how sick this is and how bizarre things have become?

We’ve finally arrived at the upside-down tea party, where right is wrong and wrong is right and good is bad and bad is good.

After all of the time and effort expended in what has now been exposed as a grand farce, Al Gore has revealed himself to be that which represents the very worst in humanity.

There are not words to adequately convey the revulsion that such despicable behavior summons up in one’s heart and soul.

Shame on you, Al Gore. You are truly a disgrace.

"It is a very sad day in our country when the men and women of the armed forces are serving abroad and facing danger on a daily basis in places like Bosnia, Kosovo or on ships like the USS George Washington, yet because of some technicality out of their control they are denied the right to vote for the President of the United States who will be their commander in chief."
