Did you ever take a civics class?
You clearly don't understand how the SC works. A case of this nature has never been brought before them because there has never been an issue of this magnitude before.
It has nothing to do with them ignoring the issue. They've never had an opportunity to do anything about it. I'm sure had the issue arisen before, they would have ruled similarly (though with more time for people to act, one would think).
The primary issue isn't whether the count should continue, but rather it was being performed in a consistent fashion. Clearly, it wasn't. And the vote on that was 7-2.
You may think either candidate is a puppet. All presidents are puppets. Even the one you voted for...or, if you didn't vote, then you have nothing to say on the issue because you chose not to exercise your responsibilities. While you still have a right to complain, you really don't have any credibility.
No matter who sits in that office, they got there because of the backing of some large money interest. If, by some weird twist of fate, Nader had made it, then it would only have been because he got the money to make a serious run. And if that money came from Greenpeace, then...well...gee...who's puppet would he be?
Fortunately for the progress of the nation, Greenpeace is primarily staffed by young people with little ready cash who are still idealistic and think they are actually accomplishing something.
Now, the Nature Conservancy....THERE'S a legitimate environmental group. Using markets to accomplish good works. |
