12/13 - Thank you Justice Stevens. Your honorable dissent conveys our feelings perfectly: "Although we may never know with complete certainty the identity of the winner of this year's 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" -Justice Stevens 12/09 - Kudos to the Florida Supreme Court for ruling that All Votes Count - and ordering a recount of the 43,000 "undervotes". Shame on the U.S. Supreme Court (5-4) for their partisan interference in a state issue.
12/08 - Wear an orange ribbon on your lapel to show your support for democracy - that you believe that the people should choose the president - not selected by the U.S. Supreme Court.11/18 Protest Summary: The 11/18 PRO-DEMOCRACY RALLY was held at the JFK Memorial at 1 PM.
