Originally posted by TheBloopI won't continue to waste my time with you. You continue to ignore the recount statute, which had been extensively rewritten in 1999. It is perfectly obvious that in counties as large as Dade, Broward, etc. etc. a manual recount of EVERY VOTE is impossible in seven days. The legislature knew this in 1999 when it passed the recount statute. It is also obvious you have never read the relevant court decisions or any legal commentary on the case. The Florida Supreme Court did what it is supposed to do; left with two conflicting statutes it interpreted the Florida election law in the manner which would have counted every vote. That what you're supposed to do in a democracy, in case you haven't noticed. Their decision was perfectly consistent with 100 years of precedent in interpreting Florida election law. The only court that went beyond its settled principles and decisions was the US Supreme Court.
OK I checked it out...
" November 21, 2000
• The Florida Supreme Court, in a unanimous decision, rules that that manual recounts may continue and that the totals must be included in the final results. Court sets as deadline for certifying the election Nov. 26, a Sunday, or early Nov. 27."
Thank you, The Florida Supreme Court just re-wrote the ...[text shortened]... preciate the link to that web site though... brought back a lot of great memories.

You really are a complete a**hole, aren't you?
I'm still at a loss for words to explain your hostility towards other people. I've clearly illustrated it's not just me. What happened in your life to make you so angry?
Originally posted by sasquatch672People like you and the Bloop are a waste of space and natural resources; if you really cared about the world you'd punch your own ticket. He felt no compunction about lecturing aabout Bush v. Gore even though he obviously had absolutely no understanding of the legal principles involved AND was totally misinformed about the facts. You have no problem talking about "helping" people by mass murdering them. Both of you are enormously ignorant, yet still insist on rambling on and on about subjects you don't have a clue about. You're incredibly hostile to STANG who, while he may be annoying, is seeking a peaceful, non-violent world. Why should I be gentle with you or the others who support mass murder in the name of "globalization" and/or US rich guy hegemony over the entire world?
Maybe I am. But you're a 13-year-old with Turrette's.
Originally posted by sasquatch672Stop playing amateur psychoanalyst, jerk; it's another subject that you don't know s**t about. I come to the forums in between playing chess which I'm pretty good at (it requires independence and flexibility of thought so it's unsurprising you're a below average player). I don't put much stock in recs, but take a look at my total; obviously quite a few people think I have something useful to say. Besides if I didn't correct the misinformation and outright lies told by people like you these forums would be dominated by idiotic right wingers. That's what REALLY bugs ya, ain't it; I won't bow down and say "Sasquatch you make soooooooooooooo much sense". You seem to be desperate for people to think just like you; well there's plenty of neo-Nazi chat rooms you can go to for that. As long as I'm here I'll speak out and correct your stupidity, mangled "facts" and lies so get used to it, Buckwheat.
Seriously, if the uneducated (read: any American who does not possess an abjecct hatred of his government) people here bother you so much, why do you come here? It really takes alot for me to get torqued up, here or anywhere else. Y ...[text shortened]... g hole in your life is causing you this much anger and resentment?
Originally posted by sasquatch672I'm still waiting for the SS to show up at my door like you said they would. Now you're acting soooooooooooo concerned about me, I'm starting to think you take that "brotherly love" extra seriously. Sorry to disappoint you, but I don't swing that way. Is that why you got kicked out of the Army?
And who's stalking who? You're an embarrassment. You call me desperate to have people agree with me? You need other peoples' approval so badly that when they don't agree with you, you blast them like it's the fourth of July. ...[text shortened]... was it? Did your father beat you? If he didn't he should have.
EDIT: At least you're not giving any more of your "interpretations" of the Federalist Papers, Snookums, that must have been pretty embarassing even to a self-righteous bigot like you.

Like I've said before - there's no point in arguing with you. You're a completely unlikable and unredeemable bully. You had no friends growing up, you never had friends, and home life was, is, and will continue to be a complete misery for everyone who has the misfortune to have you inflicted upon them.
Tip Number One about how to survive the forums - don't argue with no1marauder about legal issues.
Why? Because he knows his stuff, that's why.
Seriously. I'm not from America, but I have legal training (especially in administrative and constitutional law issues) and pretty well every time anything legal comes up, his arguments are solid.
You ain't never going to win, and all you'll do his irritate him. Permanently.
Tip 1A: don't trot out the stupid line about how judges aren't supposed to write laws. They do. The only time people pretend this is a bad thing is when they don't like the outcome.
It's amazing how politicians (who ALSO have the job of writing laws, it's a shared thing) sit around and do nothing when they're happy with court decisions, but jump about like demented pogo sticks when the result goes against them.
