    Venezuelan Dictator Hugo Chaves has invested heavily his resources into getting an extreme left political into office in Mexico. The media there has bee working over time to assist doubling their efforts for Hugo. So the left media is sitting on pins and needles right now ready to exploit a left wing victory as a mandate or a conservative victory as a sign of troubling times.

    The lack of democracy has been run by the rightwing and pro-US. It is no wonder that the mexican voters react.

    :?: :?: :?:

    Or you could say that the rightwingers that has supported dictatorship and corruption with the help of USA will resist the will of the people.

    Last time i was in Mexico Fox used quite a few government bucks on commercials for his policy.

    How much time per day do you spend digging to come up with these examples of "liberal bias"?

    Because Hugo Chavez and the upcoming Mexican election have been EVERYWHERE :roll: in the news lately.

    It's one thing to comment past tense about what the media has done its another alltogether to predict their end game.

    Lets see typically the next step would be to call a recount seven or eight times till there man from the left rightfully if not mysteriously wins back his seat that the right attempted to steal.

    And which of these two things did you do accurately in this case? You've neither accurately depicted the past actions of the media, nor have you accurately predicted there end-game.

    When crow is served I'll eat it, but I doubt it will be served by you.

    Early this morning the left guy was actually claiming victory. Don't hold your breath it may still come to fruition. I was going by those reports he may be backing off that stratagy now.

    There's nothing new in claiming victory pre-maturely. I remember a certain political candidate doing that in 2000.

    Whether he wins or not is irrelevant. Bush did it in 2000 and it worked for him. This guy is doing it now, and it might work for him, it might not. Then again, they're most likely both corrupt and in the pocket of special interest groups. Kind of like politicians everywhere.

    The 2000 year election spin was insane. There was wholesale fraud going on from the left big-time. At the same time they were accusing the right of fraud which was ridiculous then when they lost they tried to steal the election with bogus recounts. This will go down in history as one of the biggest frauds ever in media history.

    When we meet our maker we will all find out and what a revelation it will be.

    That's funny, because for the most part the media declared Bush the victor after the election, and then covered the recounts, which the Supreme Court declared un-constitutional. You don't think it's funny that the Supreme Court over-turned Florida's interpretation of Florida's recount laws?

    Like I said, Bush did it in 2000, and now that someone from the left is doing it your saying they're going to steal the election and the whole thing is being funded by Hugo Chavez. Either way Mexico is going to stay corrupt because both candidates are deep in the pocket's of special interest groups.

    Fact is first Bush won. Then there was a recount specifically designed to give the greatest benefit of doubt to Al Gore. After the count was completed Bush was the winner. So there was another recount specifically designed to give the greatest benefit of doubt to Al Gore. After the recount was complete Bush was the winner. So there was another recount specifically designed to give the greatest benefit of doubt to Al Gore. After the recount was complete Bush was the winner. Then a judge in Florida said he was open to interpretation of the recounted ballots that were double voted as to weather they should be sided for Gore or not. The Supreme Court ruled that that was absolutely ridiculous.

    It was not over stepping its grounds because the actions of the state of Florida in had the potential of frauding the nation as a whole by allowing yet another recount designed to hang the race to Gore. While by the way blocking any idea of conducting the same recounts in the panhandle.

    Basically it was like this. Pick a democratic stronghold and recount. Recount done and Bush won. Pick another democratic stronghold and recount. Recount done Bush won. Pick another Democratic stronghold and use the court system to block filing for recounts of any of the contested panhandle Republican stronghold ballots. Recount done Bush won. Then decide to loosen the restrictions on what was a gore vote and recount again in Broward County. Supreme Court says hell no and rightly so.

    Oversimplified and untrue. I'm sure you read all about it in the Drudge report.

    Still not over, and the fact that people are calling for recounts in an election isn't exactly shocking. Good job captain obvious, since you predicted the media was going to drool all over this. And that didn't happen. Have a seat Joe, you still haven't been proven correct. I've barely heard a peep over this, and I live in Southern California.
