<It's over, and nothing typed here, or in the media, is going to change the outcome.

Legally, you're right. What is pissing me off is the massive, organized effort by the left wing to rewrite history to make Bush an illegitimate president, handed the Presidency by a crooked Supreme Court after the poor Democratic voters were disenfranchised by an evil organized Republican effort, probably involving the Ku Klux Klan. The facts of the recount (reported by dozens of newspapers as showing Bush still the winner) are wrong, because obviously all the newspapers, including that right-wing rag the New York Times, are all In On It.

These statements are considered hard fact by an astonishing number of people. I hear it in articles, I see it in comic strips, it shows up in late-night jokes, and pretty much everywhere in the popular culture. It rubs me the wrong way. Sorry.
