No pics, or at least few pics, mostly quotes from Mr. Limbaugh and assorted Atlantas who submitted their opinions to the Vent in the AJC. Mr. Limbaugh's site has a section called the Maha Rushie and it's usually very interesting, especially when politics are going nutty.
First, from Mr. Limbaugh:
"I don't know how the Democratic Party can run around and talk about fairness with any credibility whatsoever after this outrage with the military ballots."
"Liberals despise us for being. The fact that we're here and breathing air offends them."
"There's a difference between Republicans and Democrats. That's why local elections matter. The reason why all this is going on in Florida is because Democrats won elections for governor, attorney general, county canvassing board and county commissioner."
"There are far more conservatives angry at Gore than there are liberals angry at Bush."
"Out in flyover country, the people that make this country work are angry at Gore."
'The whole Algore premise is nutty: 'We won, we just have to find a way to show you that people who intended to vote for us didn't get their vote counted.' But Bush won!"
"If any of you are still laboring under the illusion that liberalism is about 'the will of the people', perhaps this is changing your mind about that."
"The justices of the Florida Supreme Court treated the Bush lawyers as if they were intruding."
"It's one thing to have an opinion. That really bothers people. But when you express an opinion with confidence it makes people feel incomplete, because they do not have the same confidence."
"Today, you can be
virtuous by not having absolutes, by being undecided, by having
no opinion. That makes you a cut above."
And on the lighter side, bits and pieces from the Vent over the past week:
Paper, rock,
scissors. Has it really come to this?
I wonder what
would happen if I told the IRS that I'd intended to pay my taxes;
therefore, they are paid.
The Democrats
ever-shifting strategy in Florida to manufacture the number of
votes needed to win reminds me of playing my 5-year-old in a
board game.
I think when the
Florida quarter comes out it should have a hole punched through
it.
Is it true in
golf they will no longer be called Mulligans, they will be
Algores.
Bush vs Gore.
Let's settle this with penalty kicks.
The reason
Americans have been so patient through this election mess is we
lost confidence in the system a long time ago.
The Democrats
want to make known the intent of the Palm Beach voters, but not
the intent of the overseas military voters whose ballots were
thrown out because of technicalities.
What do I say to
the next alien who tells me, "Take me to your leader"?
I heard that they
cancelled a meeting of Florida Democrats for a Fair Election. One
of the members was sick and the other one didn't want to go
alone.
Some say this
election has taught us about the government and politicians. I
wonder if it hasn't taught us more about the personalities of the
ever-present media people.
I hope Al Gore's
goose is cooked by Thanksgiving.
"The people
who vote decide nothing. The people who count the vote decide
everything." --Josef Stalin.
Kathy Harris for
President.
Every time I see
something on tv about this terrible election, I find myself
thinking that the energizer bunny is about to come walking across
the screen.
Does anybody want
to take bets on how quickly the "Who Wants To Be The
President" saga becomes a show?
I saw Jack
Kennedy play touch football. I saw Al Gore play touch football.
You, Al Gore, are no Jack Kennedy!
Will Al Gore
qualify for unemployment insurance?
You complain
about Bush filing a lawsuit? What was he supposed to do, stand in
his underwear while Gore strips him of the presidency?
I looked up
algorithm in the dictionary. It says "a procedure for
solving a math problem that frequently involves repetition of an
operation." Sounds like Al's fuzzy math recount in Florida.
Sign at Palm
Beach County psychic: "Tarot Cards, Palms, and Chads Read
Here!"
This was supposed
to be an election year, but I didn't think that meant it would
actually last for a year.
It took 75
attorneys to keep Clinton in the White House. It's taking 75
attorneys to get Gore into the White House.
Our Electoral
College football team should be called the Fighting Chads.
New definition of
agoraphobia: the fear of Al Gore being elected to the presidency.
Presidential
compromise: You let me win, and I'll agree to it.
The University of
Alabama has taken Al Gore off their list to be the new football
coach. He can't win in Tennessee, either.
