One point: "Consider here that there is irrefutable proof that G.W. Bush was illegally elected and nothing has happened, plus he is allowed to try re-election."

Irrefutable? I think at least 50% of the people in the country would dispute that. Therefore, by definition, it is NOT irrefutable. Besides, under our system of government, whatever the U.S. Supreme Court decides is by definition "legal". You can make a case that Bush's "election" was immoral or unethical, but not illegal.
