Back in 2000 George Bush won the Presidency by defeating Al Gore in a hotly contested election. The results were not known for more than a month because the Democrats demanded recount after recount and things ended up in the courts mostly because there were different vote counting procedures in the various counties and only selected (heavily Democratic) counties were recounted. A number of recounts have all determined that George W Bush won the election but this entire fiasco has been a sore spot for Democrats who think Bush stole the election.

For years I have heard about how dishonest Republicans were with regard to elections and Michael Moore had an army of people with video cameras to film any events where Republicans tried to steal elections. Interestingly enough, while there were dirty tricks on both sides, the Democrats had much more on their side. Couple this with the way they stole an election in Washington and it is easy to see that their accusations were misplaced.

Step into the present and we have the Democrats back in control of Congress after running a brilliant campaign about nothing. They have accomplished little and have an approval rating that is 3% with a margin of error of (+/-) 3%. They could have an approval of 0% which would still be too high. The Democrats, who claim Bush stole the election based on voting fraud engaged in their own bit of voting fraud last night in order to try and give ILLEGALS services paid for with our hard earned tax dollars. The vote was in the favor of Republicans (who must have learned how people feel about ILLEGALS) at 215-213. The Democrats did not follow procedures and did not go by the official tally. They just changed the vote to 214-214. The Republicans were livid so the Democrats just said they would have a do over. Then, they allowed their members to change votes to give them the win. It is obvious they cheated and ignored the rules they put in place in January. I always said to never, ever, trust a Democrat.

Republicans walked out of the House in protest. Today there are more problems with electronic voting equipment and while it might just be technical problems, given last night’s games and departure from established procedures, who is to say the donks are not trying to manipulate the system so people can not see what is going on. If the list of who voted on what is not displayed and the vote tally is not up there it can be manipulated very easily. I realize they had votes ling before computers and that is fine. They could have gone to a paper ballot so there would be an accurate record.

Perhaps the evil Republicans at Diebold fixed the machines to register wins for the right. Maybe big oil had its hands in there skewing the results to the right. Maybe Dick Cheney called his pals at Halliburton and asked them to manipulate the machines. Surely it has to be a Republican dirty trick that made the votes come out against the Left and their twisted ideas.

All the mess finally ended because they recessed for the month of August to recuperate from the 30 or so days they have worked this year. I hate to see them on vacation because we pay them to work but we are safer when they are not in session. I just wonder how they reconcile the fact they are going on a month long recess while we are at war and yet they criticized the Iraqis for doing the same thing.

The Congress can carp about Iraqi milestones and progressing too slowly and they can complain that we will never bring democracy to that country but it is obvious the Iraqis learned quickly how to recess for vacation just like their friends in the the American Congress.

They are learning from us after all.
