Judgment Day O'Connor
December 11, 2000
Dear friends,
I'm sorry I haven't been able to write to you in the past couple
of weeks. My mom became ill and had to have surgery. Everything
went well and she is now recovering. My sisters and I are blessed
to have our parents, nearing 80, still with us.
Meanwhile, I guess some sort of overthrow is taking place right
here in the good ol' U.S. of A. I knew the U.S. Supreme Court was
dominated by reactionaries and conservatives. But, honestly -- I
never, ever, believed it
was... crooked.
Until now.
This Court appears ready to install a President who did not win
the election. Can this really be happening?
Everyone knows that if the votes are ever counted in Florida,
Gore is the winner. George W. Bush knows that more than anyone --
that's why he's fighting so desperately hard to stop that count
from ever taking place. If he felt he was truly the winner, his
attitude would be, "Sure, go ahead and count the ballots, I'm not
worried 'cause I know I'm the winner."
But that's NOT what he thinks or knows. He knows he lost.
EVERYONE knows he lost. Let's cut the B.S. If those 12,000
ballots ever get counted, George W.
Bush is the loser and everyone with an I.Q. of over 70 knows it.
Why would the loser insist on being given the top prize? Have you
ever heard of such a thing? Not only that, he has convinced all
the loser-lovers in the Florida legislature and the U. S. House
of Representatives to grant him the victory in case he loses --
again -- in court.
In every other nation on this planet, they have a word for this
behavior -- and that word is "coup." George W. Bush and his
allies in Congress, the Florida legislature, and the U.S. Supreme
Court are trying to stage a coup, an overthrow of the will of the
people.
According to last Sunday's stunning front page story in the Miami
Herald, had there been no shenanigans in the Florida election,
the Herald calculates that Gore would have won Florida by 23,000
votes! You can check out this story by clicking here:
http://www.herald.com/content/archive/news/elect2000/decision/104268.htm
The theft of this election didn't just start with Jeb Bush's
girlfriend/Bush for President Co-Chairwoman/Bush delegate to the
Republican Convention/Secretary of State Katherine Harris's
refusal to count the ballots. Months ago, Jeb and Katherine
sought to eliminate as many black voters as possible from the
voting rolls. This is a mind-blowing story and I encourage you to
read it by clicking here:

The U.S. Supreme Court stopped the counting of the ballots this
weekend and violated the law in doing so. They are allowed to
grant a stay only if "irrevocable, irreparable harm" would happen
if the votes were counted. Since when does the counting of our
citizens' votes cause "irreparable harm"? Justice Antonin Scalia
said (I'll paraphrase here), well, we believe Bush won
and if we allow those votes from Florida to be counted and Gore
ends up ahead, well, that would cause irreparable harm to a Bush
administration.
Yes, that is what he said!
Look, let's be honest about something. Part of the reason we are
in the mess we are in today is because AL GORE voted YES to put
Justice Scalia on the
Supreme Court.
Let me say this one more time so it sinks in to every Gore-loving
head out there:
AL GORE VOTED TO PUT SCALIA ON THE SUPREME COURT!
The chickens sure have come home to roost for that blunder (and
for the 11 Democrats who voted YES to give Clarence Thomas his
narrow victory). Don't
write me and tell me about the kind of Court we "might" get under
Bush thanks to Nader. We already have it, thanks to Al and his
Democrats. It's a tough
pill to swallow.
Listen, this fight today, Monday, December 11, 2000, is not about
Al Gore. It is about the only thing that ultimately matters in a
democracy -- the right to vote. The right to have a say in who
will represent us. Gore got 300,000
more votes than Bush. Gore won. Gore will have more votes in
Florida if those ballots are allowed to be counted. Gore won.
I have no personal interest in seeing Al Gore in the White House.
I did not vote for him.
But I don't like liars, I don't like thieves, and I really hate
cowards.
Mr. Bush (that's what the majority of Americans will always call
you, because we will not participate in your lie by ever calling
you "Mr. President") -- we know what you are so afraid of. You
are a coward for not wanting those
ballots counted because you know the outcome. You know you've
lost. You know the people have spoken. Be a man, for crying out
loud! Go back to your ranch
and let us get on with bugging the shit outta Al Gore for the
next four years!
Friends, if you do anything today, it must be to take a stand
against this coup. If you live within a few hours of Washington,
DC, I am asking that you pack the grounds of the Supreme Court
the way any nation of citizens would do if their election was
being stolen from them.
The rest of you -- call Western Union right now! That's right,
leave this 21st century technology of the Internet behind and
return to the 19th century way of the telegram. They will not be
expecting an avalanche of telegrams on their desks! Western Union
still hand-delivers telegrams. Let's flood the offices of
Justices Sandra Day O'Connor and William Kennedy (the only two
conservatives on the Court who are not certifiable loons) within
the next few hours and let them know the true will of the people.
I am especially calling upon anyone who voted for Bush or Nader
or Buchanan to rise above political ideology and take a stand for
what you know is right.
Here's how you send a hand-delivered telegram:
1. Call Western Union at 800-325-6000. Then wait for the live
operator.
2. Tell the operator that you want to send a hand-delivered
telegram that needs to get there within the next few hours.
3. It costs $17.95 for 15 words or less, and another $13.95 for
the hand delivery. That's a total of $31.90. Most credit cards
accepted.
4. The address is: Justice Sandra Day O'Connor (or William
Kennedy), U.S.
Supreme Court, One First Street N.E., Washington, DC 20543.
I know thirty bucks is a lot of dough for many of you. Is our
country worth $31.90? I think it is. If you truly can't afford
it, then call the Supreme Court today and make your feelings
known (202-479-3211).
But I'm telling ya, forcing the Justices to swim in a sea of
yellow telegrams -- that will have an enormous impact. It will
make national news and inspire millions more to do the same. No
one sees the phone calls coming in or the
e-mails being sent. But those Western Union guys having to lug
truckloads of telegrams up the steps of the Supreme Court...
whoa! Call 10 people right now and ask them to join us.
There will be plenty of time later to discuss the other issues
pertinent to this election -- why 100 million citizens again did
not vote, the way the rich bought and paid for both candidates,
why I am personally responsible for
this whole mess, etc.
But right now -- TODAY -- we have to act like we have never acted
before. Trust me, if they can get away with this, they can get
away with ANYTHING. Maybe many of you are already convinced that
they can. I am still clinging to some sort of strange hope that
right and justice will prevail, that a few million of us can
shock this corrupt court into coming to its senses, if not its
own sense of self-preservation.
The clock is ticking.
Yours,
Michael Moore
