About this Quote

This quote by Vincent Bugliosi is describing the Supreme Court choice in Bush v. Gore, which was a case that chose the outcome of the 2000 presidential election. The "felonious five" refers to the five justices who enacted favor of Bush, and the quote is saying that they never stated that Al Gore, the Democratic candidate, did anything incorrect in Florida. This implies that the decision was not based on any misbehavior by Gore, but rather on the justices' analysis of the law. Bugliosi is implying that the choice was unfair which the five justices were wrong in their ruling. He is also suggesting that the choice was politically encouraged, as the 5 justices were all designated by Republican presidents. This quote is a criticism of the Supreme Court's choice and a pointer that the justices ought to not be swayed by political interests when making decisions.
