Two Top-Selling Books Describe Hijacked Election 2000

Exposes: Supreme Injustice & The Betrayal of America

USA's Coup d'etat Covered by GayToday Now Validated

New York, New York-Two top-selling books, Alan M. Dershowitz's Supreme Injustice: How the High Court Hijacked Election 2000 and Vincent Bugliosi's The Betrayal of America tell how on December 12th, 2000, in a 5-4 decision, the U. S. Supreme Court put an end to the recounting of presidential votes in Florida, thus assuring that George W. Bush would win the election.

GayToday's writers were quick to condemn this decision as treasonous. The newsmagazine followed veteran activist Bob Kunst, founder of the Oral Majority, as, from coast to coast, he protested Mr. George W. Bush's theft of the presidency. Currently, Kunst and other members of the Oral Majority have picketed at over 135 locales nationwide.

Recalling that it was Vincent Bugliosi who wrote the best-selling Helter Skelter, Publisher's Weekly also reveals that the author's article about Election 2000 in The Nation had generated more letters to that magazine than had any other article in its history.

Describing Bugliosi's thesis, Publisher's Weekly says:

"This action by the Court's majority, argues trial lawyer and bestselling author Bugliosi, was a "judicial coup d'‚tat" that stole the election from U.S. citizens and simply handed the presidency over to the Court's guy, a conservative Republican like themselves. It was also treasonous, asserts Bugliosi, if not by statute it does not fit the legal definition of treason at least in spirit; the five justices are "criminals in the very truest sense of the word," he says, who have exhibited 'the morals of an alley cat.'

Bugliosi argues, says Publisher's Weekly, by using "careful legal analysis" and he presents his case "in precise yet accessible language, on page after page."

The U.S. Supreme Court's explanation for its having decided Election 2000 is a justification, explains Bugliosi and it "doesn't stand up to scrutiny; is an incorrect and unprecedented use of the equal protection clause, is feebly applied and argued, and was simply the best excuse the Court majority could come up with."

Molly Ivins calls his book "the modern equivalent of `J'Accuse'. "

On June 18 Oxford University Press published Alan M. Dershowitz's castigation of the Supreme Court electoral decision, Supreme Injustice: How the High Court Hijacked Election 2000.

The famed attorney had already spoken eloquently, at the time, against the shenanigans he'd observed being used by Republican operatives on Election Day. He is not alone, apparently, among hosts of his legal peers who have joined him in condemning what many believe is a tragic and near-fatal blow to the rule of law in the United States.

In a little-known full-page New York Times protest ad (January 13, page A-&) nearly 600 professors of law, representing major universities and colleges nationwide, condemned the U.S. Supreme Court's Bush-installing decision. www.the-rule-of-law.com

At that time the Oral Majority's Bob Kunst told GayToday:

"It is very sad that such news must appear in a paid ad. The New York Times and every other damn newspaper in America should have been carrying the law professors' big news among their top stories."

Alan Dershowitz's and Vincent Bugliosi's books have put flesh on the law professors' New York Times ad, showing how that newspaper and nearly every mainstream publication of note, failed to anticipate the successes of two tomes quickly becoming the most eagerly sought books on America's top-seller lists.
