Statement of U.S. Senator Barbara Boxer
on the Supreme Court Decision
in the Case of Bush v. Gore and its Aftermath
December 13, 2000

I am heartbroken that the Supreme Court has issued an opinion that, to me, undermines a core democratic principle -- that every vote counts and every vote must be counted.

I am also perplexed that the Court sent the case back to the Florida Supreme Court for further proceedings on the recount, since it did so while also suggesting that time had run out for the recount. That suggestion is disingenuous, considering that the U.S. Supreme Court itself helped cause the clock to run out when it voted 5-4 to stop the recount last Saturday by issuing a stay.

I want to compliment the four justices who voted against the stay order-- Justices Stevens, Souter, Breyer and Ginsberg -- two appointed by Republican presidents and two by a Democrat. While several of them recognized constitutional problems in the way the recount was being carried out, they clearly understood the overriding importance of counting every legal vote.

In his dissenting opinion, Justice John Paul Stevens pointed out that the Florida Supreme Court, in ordering the recount, merely "...did what courts do -- it decided the case before it in light of the legislature's intent to leave no legally cast vote uncounted."

He stated that in its action "the majority effectively orders the disenfranchisement of an unknown number of voters whose ballots reveal their intent - and are therefore legal votes under state law - but were for some reason rejected by ballot-counting machines."

The closing words of Justice Stevens, I believe, will go down in history as the thoughts of a great Supreme Court justice:

Although we may never know with complete certainty the identity of the winner of this presidential election, the identity of the loser is perfectly clear. It is the Nation's confidence in the judge as an impartial guardian of the rule of law.

When the next president is sworn into office in January, I pledge to do all that I can to help the country put this extraordinary and unsettling election behind us. I will do my best in the United States Senate to advance the interests of the people of California, who have so many needs and rights that remain to be addressed.

There are many lessons to be learned from these events. We need to change our election procedures to make them uniformly as reliable and accurate as possible, so that we will never again be in this situation. And more Americans must now realize that their participation in the political process is vitally important. I will work on these challenges in the coming months, for the sake of Californians and for all Americans.

Senator Boxer, the free people of the United States salute you for standing up to fascist supression of our basic civil rights! Email Senator Boxer and thank her personally for standing up to the Supreme Court's tyranny!

HOW GREEN ARE YOU?
THE CARIBOU ARE SENDING OUT AN URGENT S.O.S!!
THE ARTIC NATIONAL WILDLIFE REFUGE IS IN TROUBLE!
BIG TIME!

Satan says "I can smell the kickbacks already! Screw the caribou! Let’s drill!"

Just because Smirk’s Rent-a-brains STOLE the election with the help of America’s favorite unindited coconspirators, the Scalia Five, doesn’t mean we have to abandon Al’s excellent agenda. Did 50 million of us go Gore just because he was the most qualified person to EVER run for President, running on the issues against a GOP character-assassination-fest, playing by the rules while team Smirk kneecapped Democracy to the delight of all the corporate media chihuahuas, who rolled around in the stinking gutter, degrading our electoral process like no electoral process has ever been degraded before???

Well, okay... yeah, we did.

But that's not stopping Team Smirk from setting their sights on the Artic National Wildlife Refuge - - home to incredibly fragile caribou breeding grounds - - and the humans who depend on the caribou herd for their lives!

We at the Flapdoodle say – not so fast, Snippy! Fax President Clinton (remember him?) and DEMAND he save the caribou from the clutches of Smirk and Company! DEMAND he designate the coastal plain of the Artic National Wildlife Refuge a National Monument!

And while you're at it, ask your Democratic Senators and Representatives to get off their donkey and lobby Clinton to save the caribou!

Smirk says: "This is my bestest friend ever, Jimmy. Jimmy showed me how to play Donkey Kong. Jimmy showed me how to watch Pokemon cartoons on the computer! Jimmy showed me how to make a secure online contribution to the Gore-Lieberman Recount Committee. Jimmy said if that dumb Gore guy and that dumb Lieberman guy get enough money, I will never have to do any of the really hard President stuff, like uniting the country and restoring faith in honest elections. I told Jimmy to give two million dollars. That sounds like a lot, but it was Jebbie's Visa card."
