The first casualty...

[akicif]

Our Beloved Government weren't the only people using 11/9/01 to bury dodgy stories. According to this piece from the Toronto Globe and Mail, the final Florida recount was buried, too. Now, if the recount confirmed Bush as president, there'd have been no reason to bury it as it would have added to his legitimacy. About the only reason for hushing things up is if they'd found evidence that Gore had won, after all.
(yes, this is mentioned in my weblog, too)

Well, the results seem to be out, and it looks as if Dubya won after all. It's a pity he didn't have the courage of his convictions (erm, that's one for coke, and one for dangerous driving, right?)
