Well, I’ll Be

So abusing emails can take a powerful Democrat down!

Fran Wasserman-Drescher, the DNC chair and one of a menagerie of villains in plot to fix the Committee’s process in favor of Hillary (who, as the Greatest Canddiate in History, should not have needed any fixing), is going to preside over the pep rally convention, and then shuffle adenoidally into the sunset:

The resignation becomes effective at the end of the convention, which wraps up Thursday.

Wasserman-Schultz cited her desire to focus on boosting Hillary Clinton in Florida, where she is running for re-election, in a statement announcing her decision to step down just one day before the Democratic convention begins in Philadelphia.

“Going forward, the best way for me to accomplish those goals is to step down as party chair at the end of this convention,” she said. “As party chair, this week I will open and close the Convention and I will address our delegates about the stakes involved in this election not only for Democrats, but for all Americans.”

A hilarious and validating byproduct of the Wikileaks DNC scandal?   It’s a classic Berg’s Seventh Law issue; as much as the left claims that the RNC and Fox News are in bed with each other, it naturally follows that the DNC and MSNBC have, essentially, a client-vendor relationship.

Complete with golden parachute.

  1. I’m betting she gets the hook before the opening act of the Democrat National Circus opens.

    The wheels are really falling off the Democrat Clown Cart…snicker

  2. Maybe big city political machinery (hammered fist rule) doesn’t always work on the national level.
    And the Berne-bots……they love a good fight and some confrontation. It will be just like Selma!

  3. Wow, the bus barely felt a bump as she went under.

    It wasn’t the crime that brought her down, it was the lack of coverup.

    The Sanders delegates weren’t going to be happy that the Democrats are so opposed to actual representative democracy that they made sure that their ruling elite kept ruling with superdelegates, but to have it exposed that the ruling elite really did control their party!

    It is truly ironic that the party that really rules with as little democracy as possible names itself the Democratic Party.

  4. The whole concept of superdelegates is hysterical, and if Republicans had something like that in place it probably would have prevented a Trump nomination.

  5. Nobody NEEDS two candidates in the primary. The Central Committee will select one and you all can vote for her, as many times as you like. Wasn’t that the entire premise of Bernie’s campaign? So what’s the problem?

  6. Chris Matthews is getting himself all worked up already

    I think there is going to be a magic moment in this convention, it’s going to be Thursday night. And there are going to be misty eyes all across the country,” he predicted.

    No leg tingles yet, but you know they are on the way. I wouldn’t be surprised if there were misty eyes in the convention hall either…after 15 minutes or so, Clinton’s halitosis, flop sweat and old lady perfume should have every eye in the place watering.

    I remember watching the last night of the Dem convention in 1988, when all the conventional wisdom mongers were telling us that Michael “Massachusetts Miracle” Dukakis was going to be president. The image stays with me. He concludes his speech and the strains of Neil Diamond’s “Coming to America” fill the hall, along with a veritable crapload of confetti. For some reason, the network feed I saw showed Dukakis from behind, with his back to the camera, staring out at the messy splendor unfolding before him. And Dukakis looked tiny. Absolutely tiny. Even more than when he had the ridiculous photo opportunity in the tank later on, it was obvious at that moment that this tiny fellow would never be president.

    The imagemeisters will pump Hillaryfest 2016 up to gargantuan proportions, but they won’t be able to make her any larger, either. And if they show her from the front, the manaical stare will scare children throughout the land.

  8. Prince of D……..by just accepting the reality star’s win, the Republicans avoided a really messy convention. Even the protests outside were mild.
    Now lets see how The Queen’s coronation goes this week.
    And Iowahawk is on a role today.

  9. I always thought the superdelegates and the corrupt manner in which the Democrats ran their party was the real reason Trump ran as a Republican. He’s been a pretty loyal Democrat for years, but he had no chance running against The Queen of The Democrats. His only chance was to run as a Republican outlier who managed to unite more factions of the discontented GOP masses than could a very divided Establishment crowd.

    And it worked. I had hoped that enough of the candidates would abandon the call of the Big Money Elite and sap his support, but none did quickly and he managed to get enough momentum to win.

  10. even money says Bill will be sizing up Kaine’s wife after Hillary’s acceptance speech. The protests fizzled at the RNC big time. At the DNC it’s looking like they might need Daley Dozers again. Bernie’s peeps aren’t going down without a fight. And they are the violent type I believe. It shall be entertaining.

  11. I bet they’re putting extra spices and SPAM into that chili for the fart-in now.

    For me, the killer is that W-S is now working for Hilliary. “Yes, folks, the fix was in, and we’re just kinda hoping you don’t figure it out and take it out on Mrs. Clinton. Thanks!”

  13. Wasserman-Schultz has resigned. No one cares.

    The real story — of course, the one you don’t want to touch — is that Donald J. Trump has had to finance his businesses with Russian oligarch and Russian mob money, and that the FBI has determined it was Russian hackers who leaked the emails from the DNC in order apparently to assist Trump to win the election. The reason Trump has to use Russian dirty money is because he is such a poor businessman, with so many failures, law suits, tax issues, etc. that regular banks won’t do business with him anymore.

    The attempt to create some sort of crisis for candidates by leaking emails to harm W-S doesn’t appear to be working so far.

    That would seem to explain why it is Trump is signaling to Putin that he can go ahead and invade the Baltic nations who are part of NATO, or the rest of Ukraine, etc. as Pooty aims to restore the evil empire Soviet Union. He’s sold out to our enemies. Anyone who wants to invade neighboring NATO countries as Putin has begun to do is by definition an enemy.

    It has been asserted that Trump has illegally taken foreign funds for his campaign, including / principally from the Russians.

    You also won’t find the DNC putting tweets from racists up on the official DNC screens or crawls, the way the RNC did.

    Good on our Senator Franken for uniting the convention; well done Al! He did a good job of featuring the MN delegation as well.

  14. The real story — of course, the one you don’t want to touch

    Baked wind, DG. I’ll touch the story when I know enough about it to have an opinion I want to write.

    Of course, you’ll never touch the Clinton Foundation’s flow of cash from the Saudis, will you?

    It’s so cute when you try to act superior!

    that the FBI has determined it was Russian hackers who leaked the emails from the DNC in order apparently to assist Trump to win the election.

    Gosh. So suddenly the FBI is concerned about unsecure emails. Go figure.

    The attempt to create some sort of crisis for candidates by leaking emails to harm W-S doesn’t appear to be working so far.

    Well, in the grand scheme of things, no. The ones hurt are the Sanders supporters. Clinton and her cronies will likely weather it just fine.

    That would seem to explain why it is Trump is signaling to Putin that he can go ahead and invade the Baltic nations who are part of NATO,

    Huh.

    You never know.

    It has been asserted that Trump has illegally taken foreign funds for his campaign, including / principally from the Russians.

    Oh, it’s been asserted. Well, then.

    Show us the provenance of this “assertion”. Because around these parts, we basically assume everything you write is wrong – because 99% of it is.

    You also won’t find the DNC putting tweets from racists up on the official DNC screens or crawls

    DG, what is it like, never, ever, not once getting anything right?

  15. the FBI has determined it was Russian hackers who leaked the emails from the DNC in order apparently to assist Trump to win the election.

    And your proof of this is where exactly? The Russians haven’t exactly been cowed by the foreign policy of the Obama administration, and Hillary “Reset Button” Clinton’s tenure as Secretary of State didn’t help. A more likely scenario is the Russians would want Clinton to win– with Clinton, their foreign policy faces less uncertainty.

  16. the FBI has determined it was….
    how credulous are these morons? Its as if some moderately skilled Silicon Valley type couldn’t imagine launching an attack on the DNC from a Russian/Ukrainian/Belarus server and routing the subsequent cache of emails through the same server to the WikiLeaks server. Its not 1996 anymore.

  17. “It was the Russians, I’m tellin’ ya, yeah sure, the Russians….that’s the ticket”

  18. Good on our Senator Franken for uniting the convention; well done Al!

    LMAO! Frankenstein looked like he swallowed a turd standing up there while Silverman told Bernie’s kids to STFU. And then the two of them just stood there and took in the hate….

    http://www.informationliberation.com/files/exXlPrRCrNUGZoTH.jpg

    Between the two of them, Jill Stein and Trump divvied up 300,000 more votes between them. Super job, indeed!

  19. DG (and other libs on this frequency):

    While there’s a good chance Putin was involved in the DNC leak, it’s a yuuuuge stretch, the biggest stretch ever, to think that was done to benefit Trump.

    Putin is an intelligence operative. To a spook, “chaos opens up opportunity”. Creating chaos in the American political system benefits him, even if Bernie Sanders is the beneficiary.

  20. The Russians did not write those emails. Keep your eyes on the ball.

    Good point, Loren. I’ve noticed the lefties tend to treat unfavorable information about themselves or one of their ilk as though it was evidence in a court trial– if it wasn’t obtained through legal means, it doesn’t exist?

    Meanwhile, as DG demonstrates routinely, accusations equals proof whenever conservatives are involved.

  21. I would actually love to see a similar dump of RNC Emails. I imagine half of them would be panicked hand-wringing about how they can’t stop Trump.

  22. Emery,

    Heh.

    Lots of panic about trump.

    Referring to Latinos as “taco bowls”? Probably not so much.

  23. OK, the same FBI that dropped the ball on what, even from just the media reports, was an open and shut case against Hilliary is now capable of figuring out exactly where the hack on the (far better secured) DNC servers originated from, and who was responsible.

    On the light side, nice to see the DNC starting to understand the wisdom of fences.

  24. Hmmm… Just heard DNC will not spend a single penny on blabbermouth’s re-election campaign. She is running against a Bernie-endorsed soci@list.

    Funny how libturds are focusing on anything and everything about the leaked e-mails EXCEPT the content. Double Hmmm…

  25. I would actually love to see a similar dump of RNC Emails.

    Of course you would! Anything to draw attention away from the train wreck that is the DNC and fraud they are perpetuating against the American people.

  26. Here’s my question…if Bernie is an Independent Senator from Vermont, and the DNC showed favoritism to a Democratic candidate, what’s the controversy?

    As a aside, Trump supporters are nervous that his popularity has plateaued. Better to peak on November than midsummer.

  27. I bet you especially enjoyed the Jew hatin’, didn’t ya Emery?

    Speaking of “peaking”, looks like Hillary’s e-mail nightmare hasn’t reached it’s peak yet. Evidently, Julian Assange has said he’s got more treasure in his vault, primed and ready to go.

    Julian Assange has made an incredible statement in an interview with ITV. Assange says that Wikileaks, the infamous whistle-blowing website, will soon be publishing documents that contain “enough evidence” for the Department of Justice to indict Hillary Clinton, the expected Democratic nominee.

    http://townhall.com/tipsheet/katiepavlich/2016/07/25/wikileaks-promises-more-email-dumps-featuring-hillary-clinton-n2197533

    I’m guessing we’ll see another dump the day Clinton is scheduled to accept the nomination….better tell Franken to suit up and be ready with his best stuff.

  28. Better start looking for that NRA quote, eTASS, if you expect anyone to take anything you say with anything but scorn and derision. Congratulations, you have entered the DG zone!

  29. I would actually love to see a similar dump of RNC Emails. I imagine half of them would be panicked hand-wringing about how they can’t stop Trump.

    Perhaps, but the lesson I’m deriving here is that Wikileaks is not releasing the GOP’s emails. It is as if Republicans understand the need for network security.

    Will be interesting to see what comes next–if indeed it’s stuff that suggests (like a bunch of other stuff) that Hilliary ought to be indicted, I’ll be popping the popcorn.

  30. I’m trying to decide if the supposed Assange torpedo would be more devastating and entertaining if it were delivered the day HRC accepts the nomination – or the day after?

    Whatever it is, it could possibly spark a “medical emergency” and Hillary stepping down for “health reasons” – requiring Obama to reluctantly give up his private life in order to run for a third term (notice the recent stories touting his his approval ratings?) with Warren as VP, replacing Biden. Sure, it’s preposterous – but so is just about everything that has taken place in the 2016 race.

  31. I like the idea of DURING her acceptance speech, personally. Have her talking while the bylines scroll beneath…and thousands of convention attendees silently mouthing “OMG” while she cluelessly drones on….and the media use the rest of her speech to prepare to pounce.

  32. will soon be publishing documents that contain “enough evidence” for the Department of Justice to indict Hillary Clinton

    They could, but they won’t.

    DG:
    That would seem to explain…

    Weasel words. Either it explains or it doesn’t. “That would seem” would get laughed out of a courtroom.

    It has been asserted that Trump has illegally taken foreign funds

    More weasel words. Either he has or he hasn’t. “It has been asserted” would also get laughed out of a courtroom.

    You make pathetic people look like Rhodes scholars.

    Emery:
    I read somewhere this is image Trump tweeted.

    Really? That’s all you got? Not much better than DG.

  33. They opened the convention with the Battle Hymn of the Republic? The battle-song of the abolitionist Republicans in their war with the slave-holding democrats?
    And no American flags? Or mentions of terrorism?
    They are sabotaging themselves. My God, talk about being in a bubble.

  34. No BG, they are showing their true colors…

    Oh, wait. Nevermind, you are right.

  35. Did they actually sing the words to the Battle Hymn, or just use the music? If they sang the words I’m thinking 75& of the assembly would need a safe space.

  36. Wasn’t some Lefty know-nothing commenting here about Trump’s supposed links to Putin?
    “Cash Flowed to Clinton Foundation Amid Russian Uranium Deal”
    http://www.nytimes.com/2015/04/24/us/cash-flowed-to-clinton-foundation-as-russians-pressed-for-control-of-uranium-company.html?_r=0
    Yes, that is a NY Times article.
    For any Lefty that might read this, stuff like this is why the Right and the GOP were interested in Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s emails. We suspected she was selling her influence at State to foreign nations in return for donations to the Clinton Global Initiative.
    I imagine that they don’t mention that often on the usual ‘progressive’ web sites.
