Seeing that prominent Democrats refuse to break ranks with the
Robo-Jerk — two of them even agreeing to an embarrassingly saccharine
photo-op teleconference with him that forever hitched their own
political fortunes to a man driving himself into a career-ruining ditch
— it’s just as plain in this election crisis as it was during the
impeachment crisis, not to mention the Senate Chinagate hearings, that
these Democrats are willing to put their party above their country and
Constitution.
If you didn’t know better, you’d even think the “confederacy of
gangsters” (in the words of Carter pollster Pat Cadell) that has
hijacked the party of FDR and JFK wants to create its own country —
banding together those islands of Gore blue in a sea of Bush red on the
Election Day map — and their own constitution, written by an army of
activist attorneys.
If that’s the plan, they should write a separate language, too,
starting with voting terminology. It would go something like this:
military absentee ballots: trash
butterfly ballot: draft of an affidavit
votes: 1 chads under the table 2 chads under the
tongue
chad: a vote for a Democrat
hanging chad: a vote for a Democrat, unless it’s next to a
Republican’s
name. Then it’s a taped-shut chad
dimpled chad: a vote for a Democrat
pregnant chad: a vote for a Democrat
stylus: 1 tool to punch ballot 2 dimple-maker
3
magic wand
machine recount: a legitimate way to settle a tight election,
unless it
confirms a Republican’s lead
hand recount: a recount that hands a Democrat enough votes to
win
democracy: a planeload of lawyers
fair election: any outcome that favors the Democrat in the
race
rule of law: the law while a Democratic administration rules
canvassing board: a vote-tampering unit, unless it refuses to
tamper.
Then it’s a defendant
disenfranchised: what Democrats will be if they can’t overturn
this
election
Republican recount observers: a violent mob
Electoral College: the constitutional system that decides
every
presidential election — except this one
electors: more citizens to investigate and intimidate
single punch: mandatory except for confused Democrat voters,
who are exempted
military postmark: mandatory, no exceptions
voter intent: always for the Democrat
uncounted votes: always meant for the Democrat, even if they
weren’t
actually cast
concede: not in their vocabulary
