Oh, not this again. I'm not a die-hard Republican by any means, but I think the reality was that given the system of the electoral college (which I'll agree might be flawed), it was a VERY close election with no clear, "obvious" winner. It was Gore who called for a recount, not Bush. So I just don't see how the person who was declared the winner in the first place could have "stolen" the election. Sounds more like sour grapes to me.
did anyone else notice the press conferences they had? Bush had a conference with an american flag in the background, Gore Followed it with 2 flags in the background, then Bush followed it with 4 flags in the background. Pretty childish. They should have both been disqualified and Nader should have become president. :)

Yeah, I remember the "battle of the flags" that year. Sheesh.
Bush didn't steal the election. He bought it fair and square. :-)
Kennedy was elcted the exact same way as Bush. The only two times in history a President won the electorial votes and lost the popular votes.
How about because bush STOLE an american election. he is only now entering the crosshairs which will mark his fate.
...Because the demoKKKrats are ignorant cretins who don't understand "separation of powers" under the Constitution or the electoral college process. I'll be voting Libertarian again, anyway, so I haven't a horse in this race, really. However, if forced to choose between the two parties, I will generally go with the Republicans, as they're closer to my ideology (save on privacy issues, as gay rights, or religion). I really don't care for the neocons, though, and I will always consider myself a paleo-con. I wish Dubya would step out of the way and let an actual fiscal conservative run things.
we don't take kindly to thieves.
