-
- Al, you blew it today. All the lawyers in the world,
all the recounts, all the chads, don't mean a thing now-- because you blew
it today.
-
- Over 24 hours have passed with the news all over the
airwaves of the selective refusal to count overseas absentee military ballots
in Florida. Over one third of the votes of men and women who risk their
lives overseas for us have been rejected. They were rejected using tactics
written out and distributed by your campaign staff.
-
- For ten days now you've been trying to 'mine' for votes
in Democrat counties, and there were suspicions that the latest round of
recounts might not be fair and objective. We now know that incidents of
apparent cheating are supported by eyewitness affidavits. What we suspected,
we now know. What were suspicions, is now evidence.
-
- For ten days you have been saying that this is all about
'fairness' and 'accuracy' and 'listening to the voice of the people'. You've
said it, and your mouthpieces have repeated it again and again and again.
Even if we didn't believe you, it was simply passed off as 'partisan politics'
to have voiced questions about your motives. But now we know.
-
- We know that, in spite of the fact that you say you say
that you care about a fair vote, you've been silent for more than 24 hours.
We've known, and you've known, that our active duty military personnel
have been capriciously and unconscionably denied their votes. Men and women
who stand as a human shield between Americans and our enemies, more than
one third of them, denied their right to vote-- and your silence has spoken
volumes. Your 24 hours of silence has spoken loudly about your qualifications
to be Commander in Chief. Your 24 hours of silence has spoken eloquently
about your values, your ethics, and your ability to serve the American
people as President. Your 24 hours of silence resonate with the dark truth
of your principles and your priorities.
-
- You could have come out of your house today and spoken
forcefully in support of the American servicemen who have voted but haven't
been counted. You could have stood tall and insisted that every rejected
military vote be looked at again, and counted if possible. You could even
have come out and told a little fib, explaining that you'd never even heard
of the guy who wrote the instructions for getting those ballots thrown
out. You could have hung him out to dry, making him a minor martyr in your
quest. Had you spoken at all today, even those of us who truly distrust
and dislike you might have been able to grudgingly support you, should
you have finagled your way into the Presidency.
-
- Instead Al, you blew it today, and now we know.
-
- You didn't say a word.
