3. He didn't win. He (and his buds) stole the election using

a wide variety of means: lie, emotional manipulation, purging voter rolls, intimidating voters, providing crap machines, rigged machines...

5. That was his brilliant "affirmative access" comment.

2. That explains his track record of hiring the TOTALLY unqualified

From Brownie to Harriet Miers to most recently, a 28-year Bush staff travel agent with no management experience to act as liason between Chertoff and the DHS advisory boards!

10. Yeah well, mine is on a randomizing PERL script.
