Politically Incorrect Recount



The first 10 minutes of this episode of Politically Incorrect focuses on the week's topics of Nov. 24, 2000. On that date, Dick Cheney suffered a mild heart attack. This lead a combined force of Bill Maher, Radio Talk Show host Al Rantel, Batman's Adam West, actress Sherely Lee Ralph, and in an ironic setup, Al Franken to discuss openly their views of how both campaigns were running the recount in Florida. Al Franken leads an attack on Gov. Bush's campaign, declaring a hand recount is needed throughout the whole state. Luckily for Franken in the year 2008, he ran for Senate in a state which suggests, like legislation signed in Texas, that hand recounts are the most effective.
Other topics discussed include the vitality of the VP, the three month gap between election day and inauguration day, and the importance of a healthy candidate.
You've been warned, much of what is discussed in the clip is heated and politically incorrect.
