The hanging chad had a legal definition of an acceptable vote. The

Really? Then those 8 recounts by the Dems and their sycophants all
were wrong when they came up with the same tallys?

Odd...

the "hanging chad" fiasco, not sure those people should be voting.
Florida is just a dumb beach state, that's about all. Not much
importance in anything.

A massive hurricane seems to hit Florida every few years. I really
don't
understand why people continue to live there. Don't they get tired of
having
to evacuate every summer, and having their houses destroyed? Someone
explain
this to me.

miserable, as all spoiled children are, unsatisfied,
demanding, ill-disciplined, despotic and useless.
Liberalism is a philosphy of sniveling brats." -- P.J. O'Rourke

And you probably need a little statistics explained to you.

Just how significant do you think your sample of 4-5 standing houses out of
the houses in all of Florida is? eh?

Not very.


I was responding to an idiot. Figured he would at least get the point
that we don't get our houses destroyed every summer. I guess you
don't get it either.








The problem with America is stupidity. I'm not saying there should be a capital punishment for stupidity,
but why don't we just take the safety labels off of everything and let the problem solve itself?

Most of these insects can also be found in Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi,
and Louisiana. Scorpions and brown recluses are also native to Tennesse
and
Arkansas, probably Texas, the Carolinas, and Oklahoma. That covers most,
if
not all, of the Southern United States.

2. Staggering humidity ( well not all of florida but anything south of
the
tropical line is brutal)

Again, see most of the Southern US.


Uh, for those foreigners reading this thread, he means the southeastern US.
The southwestern US is arid with far fewer insects.

Marianne

Yes. Trade in the roaches for scorpions & Black Widows.

The Brothers Bush had the monopoly a few years back with Dubya in
Texas and Jeb in Florida. How's that for compassionate conservatism

Seems their constituents liked em. They kept getting voted back into
office. Still do too. G

Works for me, they just take too damn long too execute them. They knew the
rules and chose to play. People seem to forget that the criminal is not the
victim and execution is a punishment not a deterrent.

It does cut the recidivism WAY back though.
