Sharpton threatens lawsuit over FL, MI
Monday, March 10, 2008
Domenico Montanaro
Al Sharpton is in Florida and said he is prepared to sue if Florida and Michigan’s delegates are seated as is. He said there are people who didn’t vote because they knew their vote wouldn’t count and “there must be a formula to factor” them in.
“There were many people that did not vote, because the DNC said their vote did not count,” Sharpton said on MSNBC. “Whatever way this is resolved, they must be factored in.”
Sharpton instead called for a re-do of the voting in both states. “There must be a way that people can exercise their right to vote who did not vote.”
Called it “absurd” that Michigan where uncommitted was on the ballot, would get their delegates seated as is.
”If they try to seat as is,” Sharpton said, he and the National Action Network are prepared to file suit.
As we noted in First Read this morning, Sharpton is in Florida to meet with local National Action Network chapters in Orlando, Port St. Lucie and Miami where they will plan to sign up people who will say they didn’t vote because they were “told their vote wouldn’t count. And we’ll do it in Michigan too.”
So it looks like the Reverend has decided to throw his weight behind Mr. Obama after all.
(As if threatening to quit the Democrat party if Mrs. Clinton gets the nomination wasn’t enough.)
And of course this won’t have any affect upon the tax exempt status his non-partisan 501c3 “charity,” the National Action Network.
But what do you think he was promised by the Obama camp?

An ugly Opportunist who sees the writing on the wall.
Another irony might be the Conservative attempt to keep Hillary alive for political sabotage, which may actually empower the concept of a joint Obama-Clinton ticket.
Perhaps this being impossible.
Hillary would be forced to take the lower position, and it is doubtful the Clinton Narcissism would allow it.
But then again…

Bring it on, Al…
I’ll just crack open a six pack and watch the fireworks as these leftist f***tards slaughter each other.
Anyone else want a brew?

Sounds like a plan to me SharpsR but I think we may need a bit more than a six-pack. A full truck load is likely in order…. ;o)
SG’s postings this AM have my sides splitting. HildaBeast’s “PA roots”, Sharptongue’s rantings, church “non-endorsements” of Dhimmicrats and Americans not trusting the MSM. The ironies are just dripping from the articles like rust from the Titanic. Wow!! What a morning!!

As much as I loathed the Rockey movies, I still loved it when the asshat lawyer said touch me and I’ll sue, And Stallone busted his dork holster anyway.
The good reverend needs just such an attitude adjustment.

Why do the Dhimmis even hold primaries? Nobody follows the rules, they bus MA voters into NH, they do all they can to screw with the Repub. primaries and pick their kind of candidate and then lash out at Limbaugh for suggesting that Texans should pimp their vote to keep the trainwreck going, and then they have Super Delegates to deny the will of the people if it doesn’t go the way of the party bigwigs anyway. What a total farce!

Demoncratcy in real life. Seems they get more socialist every election cycle. One person, one vote…except these here super delegates get the SUPER VOTE. Stronger than the normal demo, able to leap large ballots in a single bound…it’s Super Delegate.
There’s gotta be a comedy spoof of this one. Anyone got any ideas? Artboy, you out there?
