MORE FROM THAT UNMENTIONABLE PLACE

I saw this is a case of quick reverse switch or bait and switch. If Hillary had obtained the Culinary Union endorsement in Nevada, this lawsuit would not have been filed because Obama’s people are not Nevada State Party insiders. Hillary’s people are! They set the rules up for these bogus precincts months ago when they thought she was going to get the culinary union endorsement. It has backfired on her!

I first heard about this new thing that was going to be used to when I attended a Hillary campaign sponsored visit of Joe Wilson (Plame case) in Reno, Nevada.

There stood our Nevada State Party Chair Jill Derby bragging about how they were going to be able to set up special “at large” precincts for casino workers to attend. And next to Ms. Derby was Frankie Sue del Pappa, one of the co-campaign leaders of Hillary’s campaign shaking her head in approval about how this was going to be so good since we had already disenfranchised most Nevadans who do shift work in the mines and the casinos.

Remember, in Nevada Senator Harry Reid controls our Democratic Party. Don’t believe me, ask anyone. Even Republicans know this.
And his son, Rory Reid, Clark County Commissioner of the county where these “at-large” precincts have been set up has known all along how the bogus delegate formula was going to benefit whomever got the Culinary Union endorsement.

These evil pieces of DLC elites had a plan and it backfired!

BTW, the lawsuit link is here and you can read how these at-large precincts would produce delegates at a rate of ten times the speed that delegates could be formulated in regular county precincts.

Barack Obama’s people were not involved in these calculations. They were not even on the ground in Nevada at the time.

Hillary and her people are crying “victim” and “disenfranchised voters” now that their plan has backfired.

I hope Jill Derby and her insider hacks are subpoenaed on this. I’d also like to hear why it is our State Party is broke.

Rory Reid

Rory? LOL!

Thanks for the link. Gee, are people finally recognizing that Hillary is evil?

It’s just amazing watching so many Dems act like no one ever knew how underhanded, deceitful, power hungry, vindictive and dishonest the Clintons are! LOL!

After all their years of whining about the “Clinton haters”, now the Obama fans are lapping up all the dirty laundry we’ve known about for over a decade.

I’m gobsmacked.

The Nevada State Education Association, some of whose top leaders have individually endorsed Clinton, filed the suit and is using a law firm with close ties to the onetime front-runner, Kummer, Kaempfer, Bonner, Renshaw, and Ferrario. Former congressmen James H. Bilbray (D-Nev.), a lawyer at that firm, has endorsed Clinton and is stumping for her in the Silver State.

The state party quickly dismissed the lawsuit. Going back to last spring, every presidential campaign was involved in setting up the unusual casino caucus sites while state party officials and the Democratic National Committee ironed out the details. “This is a fair, legal and proper way to choose delegates under established law and legal precedent that has been reviewed by attorneys....The time for comment or complaint has passed,” the party said in a statement.

PS: And Media Matters has launched an official campaign to go after Chris Matthews as a bigoted, sexist pig for not supporting Hillary.

Ha! The NutRoots is gonna EAT the Democratic party right before our eyes!

[This has almost cheered me up from the doldrums of considering McDole as our nominee.]

[mewzilla]

They’re eating their own. Again. How charming.

[Pikachu_Dad]

They always scream about what ever it is they are ACTUALLY DOING at the moment.

It’s how you know what they are up to.

[The Spirit Of Allegiance]

LOUDER!

Oh, this is priceless! Liberals suing to “disenfranchise” their own voters, many of them minorities!

[bruinbirdman]

The Cullinary Union endorses Husssien.

How can Hillary score some union points and Cullinary votes?

Hillary will come out strongly in favor of the casino precinct caucus.

She will take credit for making it easier for the Cullinary Union to vote and she will take credit for not disenfranchising minorities.

Chalk up another victory for the "crying" war room.

The only problem as Shillery sees it, is that the Culinary workers ( 60,000 in the state) have endorsed Obama. If they had endorsed Shillery, she would be all for it. The reason they are letting the workers vote at the Casino’s is lots of them wont be off work before the voting places close.

Never fear there is nothing crooked enough, slimy enough, under handed enough, lying cheating, stealing, that Clintons wont do it, this election looks to be the most crime ridden in history. Bill and Hillary believe they are endowed by Supreme Powers, and nothing is going to stand in their way, sit back and fasten your seat belt.

What about the Fudge Packers Union?
