AN URGENT CALL TO
FLAPDOODLE READERS!!

Democrats.com, the first online community for all us 100 million Democrats, has sent out an urgent appeal for funds to help the with the lawsuit against GOP absentee ballot tampering in Seminole County. In Florida, this kind of nonsense is a felony - - and rightly so. If the legal precedents are followed, a victory in this vital case should cause thousands of absentee ballots to be disqualified, handing Al Gore the Presidency.

Democrats.com has just learned that depositions will be taken on Saturday and Monday in Tallahassee. They are in urgent need of funds to launch and manage a public relations campaign on behalf of this lawsuit, filed by Harry Jacobs, an Orlando-area attorney.

(Under The Gun/Reuters)

On today’s docket, the Seminole county and Martin county absentee ballot fraud cases.*

PRAY.




*Yes, these are the vital cases refered to yesterday, by Al himself:


Outside the White House, Vice President Gore (D-The Guy Who Isn't A Sybling Of Any Governor Of Any State, Especially A State That He Won By Less Than 600 Votes, Which Has Reports of MASSIVE, ORGANIZED Voter Fraud Growing Daily) speaks to the press, who still haven't noticed.
GORE: I don't really have an opening statement. If you want to ask any questions, feel free.

QUESTION: Mr. Vice President, sir, is this the last battleground, sir? If you lose at the Supreme Court of Florida, will you concede?

GORE: Well, the effort I have under way is simply to make sure that all the votes are counted. And when the issues that are now being considered in the Florida Supreme Court are decided, that'll be an important point. But I don't want to speculate on what the Florida Supreme Court will do.

QUESTION: Realistically, would you say the odds are against you now?

GORE: I don't really feel that way, no.

QUESTION: Do you feel like an underdog?

GORE: Well, you know, I've felt that way for two years now. But I don't feel anything other than optimistic. And the team down in Tallahassee feels that way also.

QUESTION: Mr. Vice President, you said last week that you thought your chances were 50-50.

GORE: Yes, I'll stay with that. I'll stay with that.

QUESTION: Even after the court rulings have gone against you consistently the past three or four days?

GORE: Well, I think the U.S. Supreme Court ruling was neutral. It may have even been slightly favorable to us, in the sense that it gave a clear road map to the Florida Supreme Court. But those are things that the lawyers can tell you more about than I can.

I just don't want to accept your premise that they've all been negative. I don't think the U.S. Supreme Court decision was negative.

QUESTION: Why do you...

In Tallahassee, the Wall Of Democracy is displayed. Every ribbon represents a disenfranchised voter.
GORE: And as for the other decision yesterday, everybody knew from the start that that was going to be ultimately decided by the Florida Supreme Court.

(CROSSTALK)

QUESTION: Do the votes in Seminole and Martin County count, the absentee ballots?

GORE: Well, there were more than enough votes to make the difference that were apparently thrown into -- the applications for ballots were thrown into the trash can by the supervisor of elections there, apparently, even though they were missing the same number that the Republican Party workers were allowed to come in and fix the other applications with.

So I don't want to speculate on what remedy might be. I'm not a party to that case or the Martin County case.

But more than enough votes were potentially taken away from Democrats, because they were not given the same access that Republicans were. Remember, according to what's come out in that case -- again, I'm not a party to it, but I've read about it.

Apparently the Democratic Party chair was denied the opportunity to even look at the list of applications, whereas the Republican Party workers were allowed to roam around unsupervised inside the office, and bring their computers in, and fix all of the valid applications for one side even as the Democrats were denied an opportunity to come in, denied a chance to even look at the applications and those applications were thrown out.

GORE: Now, that doesn't seem fair to me.

And apparently in Martin County, they were able to go in and take all the applications home with them.

So, you know, that's a...

(CROSSTALK)

QUESTION: ... talk about the black votes being discounted there?

GORE: Excuse me, say that -- what?

This is the picture that keeps Strom Thurmond's rusty mind working overtime. How to make this sort of thing illegal... ? There must be a way...
QUESTION: The black votes that were discounted. Wasn't Jesse Jackson and the NAACP saying that the black votes were discounted in Florida as well?

GORE: Well, I am very troubled by a lot of the stories that have been reported about a roadblock on the way to one precinct, questions raised about various activities there. I do not have a personal or firsthand knowledge of those events. But whenever there are problems of that kind alleged, they are deserving of attention.

QUESTION: Will you meet with Jesse Jackson...

GORE: I talk with him regularly, of course. And I have worked with him closely.

GORE: I have spoken with Kweisi Mfume and Julian Bond. Penda Hair, who is a head of the effort by the NAACP against voter suppression, has been in touch with our people.

But I have no knowledge of those activities. I want to say to you clearly that, in my opinion, whenever you have allegations of those kind, that is a mater that the entire country ought to take seriously. They are not part of the ongoing court action, and I don't want to mislead you on that, but I certainty want you to know that I think that they're serious allegations.

(CROSSTALK)

QUESTION: ... you are not party to the suits in Seminole and Martin counties, but how will what happens there affect your decision to continue or to concede?

GORE: I don't know. I don't know what'll happen there. I think that those two cases are likely to travel the same route as the case that went into Judge Sauls' court and will end up in the Florida Supreme Court.

While Gore was battling the Corporate Media Chihuahuas, his running mate Senator Joe Lieberman was receiving the support of Congressional Democrats, who promised to stand behind the Gore/Lieberman ticket, win, place or show. "You couldn't have waited a little longer to make up your minds?" Lieberman replied.
QUESTION: Will you hang on while that happens?

GORE: Well, look, I'm not going to speculate on what the outcome will be, what the remedy might be, depending on that outcome. Those are hypotheticals on top of hypotheticals, and I'm just not comfortable dealing with a hypothetical like that.

I do think that it's likely that all of the current controversies will end up being resolved, one way or another, in the Florida Supreme Court. And that's been predicted for a long time now, but...

(CROSSTALK)

GORE: Momento. Aqui.

QUESTION: Thank you. Gracias. What do you make of the fact, sir, that the American people don't seem to be outraged that not all the ballots have been counted?

GORE: Well, actually, you know, I spent a lot of time debunking the importance of public opinion polls. Every once in a while, I see one that I like.

(LAUGHTER)

One of them that caught my eye recently indicated that, by a very solid majority, the American people believe that every single vote that is legally cast should be counted and not just arbitrarily not be counted.

And the votes in Miami-Dade County, for example, deserve to be looked at and counted. And I think there is a very strong feeling among the American people that that ought to happen.

Thank you all very much. Appreciate it.

Jimmy showed me how to make a secure online contribution to the Gore-Lieberman Recount Committee. Jimmy said if that dumb Gore guy and that dumb Lieberman guy get enough money, I will never have to do any of the really hard President stuff, like uniting the country and restoring faith in honest elections. I told Jimmy to give two million dollars. That sounds like a lot, but it was Jebbie's Visa card."

SMIRK THINKS HE FIXED THE FLORIDA ELECTION
SMIRK'S HIRING RENT-A-PHOTO-OP NAZIS
TO INTIMIDATE THE PRESIDENT YOU CHOSE
(EVEN THOUGH WE'RE NOT SUPPOSED TO
MENTION THAT PART ABOUT AL BEATING SMIRK
IN THE POPULAR VOTE ANYMORE).
WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO ABOUT
POPULAR VOTE LOOSER SMIRK?

AL'S DAY IN DC UPDATE: Not afraid of a thousand Leslie Stahls, the Last, Best Hope Of The Free People Of The United States faces down the assembled Corporate Media Attack Chihuahuas to condemn growing reports of minority voter disenfranchisement in Florida. The Vice President said: "whenever you have allegations of those kind, that is a mater that the entire country ought to take seriously". The subtle irony implicit in that statement went straight over the heads of the press corps.
DON'T LET THE RENT-A-PHOTO-OP NAZIS WIN THE PR BATTLE:

Democrats.com is organizing a major protest in Florida for Wednesday, December 6th, the day the Seminole County Absentee Ballot fraud trial is scheduled to start. The Rent-A-Nazis are already on the scene, attempting to intimidate witnesses and the judge herself. If you can get to Florida, stand up and be counted! If you can't get to Florida, sign the petition supporting Judge Clark - - Ask her to do her duty and do right by the citizens of Florida!

Write, phone or email your Senators and Congressional Representatives -- tell them how you feel about the Florida election and what you think needs to be done to pick the next President! Especially if they are Republicans, let them know how you feel about Smirk hiring Rent-A-Nazis to force America to accept him as President! Let them know how you feel about the way Jeb runs THOUSANDS of black voters out of Florida's polls!

LET THEM KNOW HOW YOU FEEL ABOUT FLORIDA STATE LEGISLATURE'S LITTLE COUP D'ETAT!! LET THEM KNOW THE ENTIRE REPUBLICAN PARTY IS GOING TO BE HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR THE BUSH BROTHERS' CRIMES AGAINST DEMOCRACY!!!

Al’s back in DC, on the job! Email the Last, Best Hope Of The Free People of The United States and tell him how you feel about his fight against the fascist menance, as well as Florida’s vote fraud and its civil rights abuses! Get specific! It’s Al!

Don’t forget to tell Joe what you think! After all, he’s in this fight, too!

Why has the fifth column in the fourth estate insisted that Al concede an election that isn’t over - - especially one so obviously rotten with voter fraud? WHY ISN'T THE RENT-A-NAZI STORY THE TOP STORY OF EVERY NEWS CAST?? WHERE'S THE COVERAGE OF THE THOUSANDS OF BLACK VOTERS IN FLORIDA THAT WHERE KEPT OUT OF THE POLLS BY THE POLICE?? Give those weasels a piece of your mind!
