One Wes Didn't Post (dems suing DNC)
 
Quote:
Today reports are out that Senate Democratic Leader Steve Geller, along with two other Democrats, have filed a suit in Florida to force the DNC to seat the delegates, claiming that stripping Florida of those delegates is in violation of the Voting Rights Act which prohibits any national party from stripping a state's delegates.

According the federal lawsuit, Geller's argument is that, "Florida's history of discrimination against African Americans should force the national Democratic Party to count all of the state's delegates at its national convention."

The Civil Rights-era law requires the U.S. Justice Department to approve any significant voting change in Florida to make sure it doesn't disenfranchise minority voters. Geller argues that includes the Democratic National Committee's demand that Florida switch ''from a state-run primary to party-run caucus system'' to avoid losing its delegates.

''The purpose of this lawsuit is not to support one candidate over another; it's to enforce one of the most basic tenets of our democracy: Count the votes as they were cast,'' Geller said in announcing the lawsuit.

Why? What offensive, attacking thing did I say about wes?

It's a little comical though, don't you think? He posts that Nader thinks Bush should be impeached, but not that some Dems are suing the DNC for civil rights violations in Florida.

But I'm not attacking him in any way. Wes knows I love him.

Whatever, my friend. How are you enjoying the afternoon?

I assume that means you can't actually provide any evidence of an attack on wes though, right?
Which means you didn't really have a point, you were just trying to bust my hump? It's okay.

Not really just pointing out the facts, continue your little debate with yourself on this post.. time to move on, this is going nowhere.

That's probably because he gets his news from Jon Stewart. So there was no way he could know. :)
