Jeb's new scam to steal the 04 Florida election
Absentee ballot law is a joke that isn't funny
`Every vote should count.''-- Jeb Bush, upon signing into law a measure doing away with witness signatures for absentee ballots:

Our governor -- what a kidder!

If we counted every vote in Florida, Jeb's brother would be spending all of his time -- and not just some of his time -- falling off his bicycle on his Texas ranch

The only thing the bill Jeb signed Tuesday guarantees, is that Florida's elections will continue to be a joke. By taking away the witness requirement, the governor and the Legislature not only made it easier for corruption to take place -- which in itself is a fairly amazing feat -- but they have also made it more difficult to catch.

2. I never heard about the witness clause. Now, hope is lost unless
an honest investigative reporter has some time. Please step forward.

3. Assume Florida 2004
is Illinois 1960. It doesn't matter what the vote count is, the decision has already been made.

4. IL 1960=?????????????????
what I've heard...

...Republicans agreed not to contest IL on basis of 'possible' vote problems in Chicago favoring JFK

...IN RETURN for democrats not contesting 'possible' vote problems in southern IL favoring Nixon
