10. I'm still ticked off, too
Sat Jun 16, 2012, 02:09 PM
Jun 2012

I'm ticked off that the Gore team went into a gun fight thinking it was a slap fight.

I'm ticked off about the butterfly ballot.

I'm ticked off at Katherine Harris and Jeb Bush for the voter purge.

I'm ticked off at the entire Bush campaign team.

I'm ticked off at the Brookes Brothers riot.

But more than anything else, I'm ticked off that the only votes that counted for the presidency in 2000 were the votes of five ultra rightwing supreme court justices.
