Was the constitution violated? Yes.You can't have a court determine a presidential vote count or how that count is conducted. But the decision to stop the recount rather than remand the case back to the FL supreme court with instructions to require the state legislature to determine a recount formula was the part the court got wrong - and the idea that the country would come implode because we took another few weeks in determining the leader of the free world is nonsense.
lol Exactly. Scalia should be on trial for treason anyway, given that decision allowing foreign corporations to donate to US political candidates. And given their love of the death penalty, that should be the sentence of the conservative justices on the court.
I'm sure he doesn't want to rehash this..I wouldn't if I fancied myself a dictator either. And how is letting an election finish considered unconstitutional. They didn't even have the technology to conduct an election when the constitution was drafted. That's why we developed the electoral system. Cause we couldn't hold an election. and I just saw another interview where he says he doesn't acknoledge the constitution because it's impossiblerespect which parts of the constitution are still
Scalia says "we were the laughing stock of the world" (raging sarcasm) the world really respected president Bush. the world really respects the USA now.
@garagebanman Dude. Conservatives are idiots... Look at Bush. They call themselves "T-baggers" and "Tea Partiers" and they are all idiots like Palin. I don't need to elaborate my opinion. It is quite clear that they are pro-war, pro-torture, pro-death penalty, stupid and retarded.
United States consist of 4% of global population and yet they create 25% of greenhouse gases. As a leading contributor to global warming they should also be the ones to take the lead in solving it. Gore would've made a much better president than Bush.
O Glorious St. Thomas More, Patron of Statesmen, Politicians, Judges and Lawyers, your life of prayer and penance and your zeal for justice, integrity and firm principle in public and family life led you to the path of martyrdom and sainthood. Intercede for our Statesmen, Politicians, Judges and Lawyers, that they may be courageous and effective in their defense and promotion of the sanctity of human life - the foundation of all other human rights. We ask this through Christ our Lord. AMEN

Oh god yes. Maybe we'd have cap and trade, and no Iraq war, etc. lol We might not have ever run deficits during the good years.

What he's describing is a third world rigged election, and notice how much closer we've gotten to the third world since.
