Nader on CNN now.... Suing Dems for ELECTION fraud!!

[Roxy66]

You have got to be kidding me!!! He claims there was a conspiracy to block him in 2004!! I'm sorry....he needs to go away!!

[Renew Deal]

1. It's called politics.

The point is to get as many votes for yourself as possible.

[SeattleGirl]

2. The cheese how now completely slid off Ralph's cracker.

Ralph, it's time to go away now.

[C_U_L8R]

4. good analogy !

gonna have to remember that one : - )

[TahitiNut]

3. Oh goodie ... red meat for the Nader-haters. (Get the Thorazine ready, momma!)

:popcorn:

[nadinbrzezinski]

5. Can I have some heavily laced Pop Corn too?

:-)

[TahitiNut]

9. Ubetcha, luv. (Hunker down. Thar she blows!)

[cali]

7. I don't hate him

but he does bewilder me. Why take money from republicans? Why sue now, instead of last year or the year before? It couldn't have taken 3 years to prepare to file suit; that's not how things work. You do discovery after filing.

[TahitiNut]

11. It's not about you.

(1) Because it was donated and it's legal.
(2) Because it took that long to gather the evidence?
(3) Yes, it could; yes, it does. Clue: Satute of limitations.
(4) The defendant initiates discovery after a case is filed with prima facie evidence.

[cali]

14. Of course it's not. Never said it was. That was simply snark on your part.

Let me respond to your comments, however.

1) Yes, and so is money donated by neo-nazis. Do I really have to explain that because something is legal that does not make it ethical. How sad.

2) Hmm. Don't you support all kinds of Conspiracy theories? Don't you find the timing of this suit interesting? And no, I doubt it took three years to gather enough evidence for this suit.

3) So what? Yes, there's a statute of limitations, but that's not evidence of anything, one way or anoter.

4) My post made it perfectly clear that discovery is triggered by filing. And discovery IS one the main avenues for gathering evidence, particularly in a case like this.

It's all speculation, but mine is based on Nader's history.

[lateo]

41. So...let's start the countdown.

Someone wake me up when the Dems start espousing this message.

[napi21]

Hey Ralph! You had your day in the sun, but guess what?

Your time is OVER! Even the Dems who supported you no longer do.

You did a great job uncovering the harmful systems on cars a long time ago, but I suggest you either go back to that, or just enjoy your retirement!

[riverdale]

19. Speak for yourself, Nappy

I still support him over any Dem not named Kucinich

[Adenoid_Hynkel]

6. I'd guess it's more about plans for '08 than winning money

He's probably trying to secure some kind of legal directive or precedent for his ballot access efforts. At least that's my guess anyway.

[LynneSin]

8. What a WAAAAAHHHHHH-Hole

:eyes:

[riverdale]

20. I think all you haters are the crybabies.

Every citizen has a right to run for president.

[LynneSin]

21. And every citizen has the right to call him an asshole....

especially when he used a signature gathering service in Ohio that is notorious for counterfeiting signatures in order to get results. Trust me, it was the same service used in Pennsylvania for the Green candidate that the Santorum people helped put on the ballot and Bob Casey was smart enough to call that fake service out!

[applegrove]

10. Nader is still blind.

[siri2k]

12. YES, Barf Nadir needs to *go away.* n/t

[TreasonousBastard]

13. Fuck him and anyone who defends his...

sorry, limpid ass.

It's about time his admirers did the right thing and told him he's way over the hill and has fast become a major annoyance.

(Unless they're as brain dead and full of shit as he is.)

[Popol Vuh]

16. What if he has evidence?

I am not saying I support him. In fact, I support none who are in the running for this election. However, yours and others' responses remind me of the little freepers responses over at freeperville when we charged election fraud in the last two presidential elections.

Maybe he has legitimate evidence, maybe he doesn't, but your kneejerk reaction over someone accusing YOUR TEAM is just as disturbing as the little freepers with respect to their team.

[TreasonousBastard]

18. I don't care WHO he's accusing. He's an...

irrelevant bad joke.

I don't doubt for a minute that some elements within the Democrats aren't above a few dirty tricks in a presidential election, but for this pishiger to come out years later, coincidentally before another presidential election, and make these claims is spurious and beneath contempt or notice.

He's become an attention whore and made himself worse than irrelevant-- a menacing presence.

[Richard Steele]

15. This just in: Sour grapes make thin whine! Film at Eleven. nm

[Az]

17. Oh Ralph... what happened to you?

Ok you were always an odd child. But you channeled your oddness in productive ways. But poor Ralph you have lost your way now. Your not even tilting at windmills now. Your going after specks of dust dude.

[Disturbed]

22. Nadar is an excellent Attorney , He may win his case.

He is really hated by the majority of DU members but he may have a solid case.

[JerseygirlCT]

26. Ego. A big fat one has overtaken anything else in the man. nt

[opihimoimoi]

23. He should be banished from the Human Race...fuck the dude

[slowry]

25. Fuck the tens of millions who voted for *, and all those corrupt people who suppressed votes.

America was gonna get * or someone just as evil, no matter what. If it wasn't 2001, it would have been 2005, or a little later -- it doesn't matter. It's over. Get out while you can.

[guardian]

24. Kucinich/Nader ticket?

My dream: Kucinich wins the Democratic nomination and brings on Nader in the VP ticket. We'd see some changes then!

[Generator]

27. Wow. All them black folks waiting in the rain in Ohio for five hours

were trying to vote for Nader? In the words of Johnny Carson, "I did not know that."

Nader is kinda insulting, is he not Creskin? Why yes, Johnny he is.

[OzarkDem]

28. Remember, he & the Green Party take money from the GOP

Bought and paid for like everyone else.

[EFerrari]

29. Amy Goodman reported on this story. The Democrats

did all kinds of things to keep him off the ballot and unfortunately, some of those efforts were illegal and left tracks.

Politics is a dirty business.

[trumad]

30. Fuck Nader!

[slowry]

31. Fuck Amnerika!

You would have gotten a * sooner or soonerer, no matter what. 10s of 10^6s of your countrymen voted for him. You deserve him!

[cali]

34. what? no one can say that.

As for us deserving him, that's a stupid statement; I don't know where you live, and it's not important because every single person on the planet is effected by an American president, and in this case it's been a fucking disaster.

[trumad]

35. Fuck Nader!

[slowry]

36. Fuck Amnerika!

[trumad]

37. Fuck Nader!

[slowry]

40. Fuck trumad!

:hide:

[blondeatlast]

39. Ralph alraeady did that to some degree--and now he's trashing her every chance he gets in public.

No class, that guy.

[Didereaux]

32. y'all forget the bastard is a LAWYER! he has to sue or die! n/t

[SlowDownFast]

33. Good luck with that Ralph.

We've all seen how well THAT goes...

By the way - where were you in 2000?

[Skidmore]

38. Just in time to screw up the 08 election in some way.
