WE HAVE NOT FORGOTTEN - New York City

Wednesday, December 12, 2001, marks the one year anniversary of the infamous decision in the case of Bush v. Gore in which the 5 conservative justices of the U.S. Supreme Court permanently stopped the legal hand count of the votes in the Florida Presidential election and precluded Al Gore from having a full and honest count of the votes.  A lot has happened in this past year, but we have not forgotten the trampling of democracy committed by these five Supreme Court Justices.  While we still mourn the loss of  thousands of innocents Americans murdered by terrorists on our own soil on September 11, 2001, we have not forgotten the wrongs perpetrated by our own Justices of the U.S. Supreme Court on December 12, 2000.

Voter March Event with Vincent Bugliosi and Greg Palast:

On July 31, Voter March (New York City) had as our guest speaker,  Vincent Bugliosi, legendary prosecutor and author of the New York Times Best Seller "The Betrayal of America - How the Supreme Court Undermined the Constitution and Chose Our President," with forewords by Molly Ivins and Gerry Spence.  Vincent Bugliosi's Nation article about the 2000 election, "None Dare Call It Treason," generated more inquiries and online hits than any other article in the magazine's history. 

              

Greg Palast, BBC television investigative reporter and award winning columnist for Guardian newspapers  also spoke at the Voter March reception.  Gregory Palast reports "Theft of the Presidency" on BBC Television's Newsnight 2 March 01.  You can still read the transcript here and view the live streaming video at the BBC.

Vincent Bugliosi Reviews:     See reviews by Molly Ivins, Gerry Spence and Lou Posner of Voter March from the American Politics Journal.   

"Vincent Bugliosi has written the modern equivalent of 'J'accuse'.  I am not a lawyer, but I do know that when Bugliosi quotes a Yale law professor as saying the day of the Bush v. Gore decision was 'like the day of the Kennedy assassination' for him and many of his colleagues, this is not an exaggeration."
    Molly Ivins

"It is a pathetic spectacle that Bugliosi beckons us to behold - this high, hallowed court and its revered majority sold out to Power."
     Gerry Spence, Esq.

"With his powerful, brilliant, and courageous expose of crime by the highest court in the land Vincent Bugliosi takes his place in the pantheon of patriots who have stood up and spoken out against injustice.  When an article he wrote on Bush v. Gore appeared in The Nation magazine in February, 2001, it drew the largest outpouring of letters and e-mail in the magazine's 136-year history, tapping a deep reservoir of outrage.  Bugliosi's argument is here greatly expanded, amended and amplified."
