Gore Calls For Recount Of Supreme Court Vote

WASHINGTON, DC-- An increasingly desperate Al Gore called for a recount
Tuesday of the
U.S. Supreme Court's 9-0 decision in Bush v. Palm Beach County Canvassing
Board. "There
is reason to suspect that these nine votes were not properly counted and that
as many as five
justices who sided with Mr. Bush did not intend to do so," Gore said. "It is
therefore in the best
interest of our democracy for the U.S. Supreme Court to suspend judgment in
this case until we
can be absolutely certain that this court did, in fact, intend to rule in Mr.
Bush's favor." Gore added
that if his recount request is denied, he will file an appeal with the
Interplanetary Supreme Court.
