Can You Win When the Other Side Cheats?

I’m assuming the final count in Ohio and Florida will go to George W. Bush. I’m assuming that because the GOP wanted it so much and had so little faith in Bush’s ability to win honestly that they stacked the deck in both states. And if anyone knows how to play with a stacked deck, it’s the Republican dirty tricks maven Karl Rove. Even if Rove didn’t believe in his man enough to allow him to run for President and play it straight, I believe in Karl Rove knowing how to cheat. And to answer the above question, No, you cannot win the game when the other side cheats. The thing you do win is the ghoulish satisfaction of watching an undeserved victory turn to dust. I have faith in the law of karma more than I have faith in organized religion. What goes around comes around. If Bush in fact has been elected President of the United States, have a little patience. The unraveling is about to start. Now that the election is over, the biggest unresolved question is: Will the mainstream media pull its collective head out of George W. Bush’s ass and start acting like journalists? I happen to believe that the whole lot--CNN, NBC, CBS, ABC, The New York Times, The Washington Post, The LA Times--were intimidated and threatened by the Bush administration but that is no excuse for their cowardly behavior. What was the GOP going to do, send the entire lot to a gulag in Afghanistan? Now is the time for the MSM to reconnect with its gonads and give us the real news. Journalists are worse than political hacks if they don't fearlessly and honestly report the news. And the smallest unresolved question is: When is Aaron Brown going to leave CNN? He deserves better than CNN’s mealy-mouthed, suck-up bunch of jackasses. Where he would go I have no idea. Maybe start his own cable news outfit. But night after night for him to have to deal with the king of brown-nosing fence-sitters--Jeff Greenfield--is a penance and insult he doesn’t deserve.
