18. I love the way this is worded...they said no one asked them.
** Senators are particularly vital. As you may recall from the opening
scene of the Michael Moore movie Fahrenheit 9-11, the Congressional
Black Caucus took a noble but futile stand against the stolen election
of 2000 by objecting to the unlawful Florida electors on January 6th,
2001.

Their effort failed for the lack of the required support from a single US
Senator. In fact, the next day on Meet the Press 2 Dem Senators were
asked why -- their response (in unison) -- "No one asked us." Those 2
Senators were Joe Biden and John Kerry.


They've made it clear: WE HAVE TO ASK THEM -- SO LET'S DO IT!

My question is....what world were they living in at that time in 2000 when my heart was breaking? :shrug:
