Funk, your comments are out of line, especially since you obviously don't know what the fsck you're talking about. Read up on US election laws and come back later. Whatever you do, don't spew whatever liberal propaganda you've gathered from left wing web sites and media outlets, because you're bound to make a fool of yourself. Every vote down there was counted, and what it came down to in the end was one of four complaints:

Gore wanted the votes recounted ad infinitum until he got the results he wanted, or

Minority groups cried after the fact that they didn't vote, and maybe they should be allowed to vote after the elections were closed, or

Individuals wanted to change their votes after the fact, or

Individuals claimed that they didn't understand who they were voting for. If you're too stupid to read a ballot, you shouldn't be voting. Period.

In the end, the right person was put into office, and the other is still crying. The way politics are going in the US is that there is a feeling of entitlement ... if a group of people bitch and moan hard and loud enough, they feel that everyone should cater to them. I hate to burst their bubble, but we work by majority rule, and in elections, we work by republic style voting: you can't just write the rules after the fact to change a situation, and the psychotic liberals out there don't seem to understand that.

Nader is not the nice guy many of you like to make him out as, and I would go so far as to label him a fool. That guy advocates hardcore socialism and severe hampering of modern industry, while promoting himself as an economic messiah to boot. Imagine this: all social services are paid for through extremely high taxes. Think along the lines of 50-60% for the middle class and higher for those that make more, while those under $20K are taxed in the 10% range. But wait, many middle class workers are unemployed because their businesses were taxed or regulated out of existance! But wait, the rich are now poor because they were taxed and regulated out of existance! But wait, if everyone is poor, we have to tax the poor and unemployed! But wait, now we can't pay for social services because we aren't collecting taxes! And on, and on, and on until we're all in the gutter.

Nader is a dangerous individual because he wants socialism NOW rather than slowly working toward it like the Democrats are attempting.

Oh, and that MM guy is an ass. He has the right to sell whatever he wants and publish whatever kinds of warped movies he wants, just like the Nazi propagandists have the right to sell movies about how the holocaust never happened. I wish they would pass a law, though, that revisionist history flicks had to be labelled as such, though, whether they come from hate groups or from a liberal propagandist.
