Holy Shit! Bolton as Florida ballot scrutinizer!

Yes, i think this is a legit, undoctored snapshot of Bolton, as he scrutinizes ballots in Florida, 2000. It appeared in a Oct. 2004 story on the "scariness" of a close election.


CAPTION : Judge Charles Burton, chairman of the Palm Beach County canvassing board, holds up the last ballot the board was able to consider in the manual recount of ballots as Democratic lawyer Mark White, left, and Republican lawyer John Bolton watch at the Palm Beach County Emergency Operations Center Sunday, Nov. 26, 2000, in West Palm Beach, Fla. On Election Day 2004 partisan lawyers are planning to be at polling places they consider important or prone to trouble as the best remembered controversies in the 2000 Florida election grew from technical voting problems, many of which still exist; an estimated 32 million voters in 19 states will use punch cards. -AP File Photo

It sure is tough to keep up with it all the shenanigans.

"I'm with the Bush-Cheney team, and I'm here to stop the count."


Those were the words John Bolton yelled as he burst into a Tallahassee library on Saturday, Dec. 9, 2000, where local election workers were recounting ballots cast in Florida's disputed presidential race between George W. Bush and Al Gore.

Bolton was one of the pack of lawyers for the Republican presidential ticket who repeatedly sought to shut down recounts of the ballots from Florida counties before those counts revealed that Gore had actually won the state's electoral votes and the presidency.

Make this toady a UN ambassador! Look what he did for you!

:sarcasm:

If he's in a very bad mood.

Which, it seems, Georgie, happens a lot.

looks to be photoshopped. There is something wrong with the guy in the blue shirt...

various images pasted together. The link seems to be legit. I have changed my first message to "i think..." however.

Just how much they will get away with, forget fair elections anymore, there will never be another democrat president.

Or does she only do the Bush boys.

that i did not need to carry around.

'scuse me while i ... :puke:

was talking about it on her show last night. He flew all the way from Seoul to West Palm when it became evident that Bush was behind in Florida.

No wonder Bush nominated him. It's payback time. Fuck his credentials, he's a buddy. Pitiful.

It's that he KNOWS.

How much will BushCo pay him (of our money) to zip it?

YES! We have a poltical pay off. After raising 200 Million in the last election. You would think Bush could pay his bribes out of pocket instead of out of the US Treasury.

He volunteered for the hazardous duty of being one of the fuckheaded congressional staffers who flew to Florida to show the outrage (in the saftey of a mob, of course) at the nefarious actions of that coward and pretender, Al Gore.

A brave man, indeed, that John Bolton. A paragon of liberty and a staunch defender of the right of any and all republicans to steal an election.

America needs more John Boltons.

John Bolton for the UN.

John Bolton for President

Hard Working John Bolton for fucking emperor.

He's a hard worker.

Hey John ... this one's for you ...... fuckwad .....
