He's Right: The Election Was Stolen From Him

     I can understand his anger and frustration. It's not right that illegal tactics and other underhanded tricks were used to steal the election from him.

    He sought aid from the courts, and he had every right and reason to do so. People attacked his character because he didn't concede. They called him a sore loser, but this was so unfair. History will show that he really did win the highest office in the land, despite what everyone in the media said. And, as he claimed, when the illegal votes aren't counted, he won the popular vote, too!

   However, I speak here of Al Gore, a democrat in the year 2000. Gore graciously offered a concession speech and gave the presidency to George W. Bush--despite the fact that, had Gore held out, it would have been shown in due time that he actually and truly did in fact win the election, to say nothing of the popular vote Gore won by about a half million votes.

    As for that shell of a man holed up in the White House today? History will show that in the year 2020 democracy in the US stood on a precipice, looking into an abyss as dark as his soul.

    By God's grace it is he, rather than democracy, that will be thrown into outer darkness.

    But what then should happen to his enablers still ensconced in Washington, D.C.? Let us hope that history will record their ignominious departures too, and their evil intentions with them.

PS -- Lest this pilgrim be mistaken for having political leanings... For the record, in 2000 this pilgrim was pretty thankful that Bush won. Elated. Jubilant! In hindsight, this pilgrim is more transfixed by the fact that Gore placed the country's needs ahead of his own ambitions. Time passes and hopefully our priorities and values get refined. A good sign that this has happened is when political affiliations wane in influence and affection for Jesus grows stronger. This pilgrim wants no association with any party whatsoever.
