The (Alvin) Greene Party
Investors.com ^ | June 18, 2010 | Investor's Business Daily staff

Politics: The Democratic Senate candidate from South Carolina is not a GOP dirty trick but an appropriate representative of a party detached from reality. An incoherent and off-the-wall empty suit, he is a perfect fit.

Late Thursday night, the South Carolina Democratic Party's Executive Committee rejected a protest of the June 8 primary for U.S. Senate, in which Alvin Greene, who has a felony arrest for showing porn to college girls, defeated Vic Rawl, a former state representative and judge.

Greene has been declared the party's legitimate nominee, much to the chagrin of MSNBC's Chris Matthews, whose leg no longer tingles when President Obama speaks, and others.

Matthews asked guests: "Do you think this has the look of a dirty trick — sort of a Watergate number?"

After all, how could a Democratic electorate that put a community organizer in the White House make such a mistake?

Good editorial. Thanks for posting.

If Al could only sing like this Green...maybe he should be prez. Just sayin’ a singin’ prez is better than a commie organizer.

Ann Coulter on Alvin Green....

“Obama senior adviser David Axelrod said Greene was not a “legitimate” candidate and called his victory “a mysterious deal.”

“Yes, how could a young African-American man with strange origins, suspicious funding, shady associations, no experience, no qualifications, and no demonstrable work history come out of nowhere and win an election?”

Gotta love the last line of the article:

Democrats look with feigned embarrassment at how such a sad joke could become their candidate for the U.S. Senate. They should consider the ranks he would be joining.

Greene appears to be one of the smartest guys in the Dim Party. Of course, everything is relative.

a felony arrest for showing porn to college girls

I'm still not quite up to speed on this. Is it an matter of her age, or that the pictures are exceptionally nasty, or is it specifically illegal if she's a college student, but not illegal if she's a stripper, or what.

Everytime I see Alvin on video he makes me smile. Hey, dumb voters elected Obama too with no vetting, Democrats loved that.

"Anyway, like I was sayin', shrimp is the fruit of the sea. You can barbecue it, boil it, broil it, bake it, saute it. Dey's uh, shrimp-kabobs, shrimp creole, shrimp gumbo. Pan fried, deep fried, stir-fried. There's pineapple shrimp, lemon shrimp, coconut shrimp, pepper shrimp, shrimp soup, shrimp stew, shrimp salad, shrimp and potatoes, shrimp burger, shrimp sandwich. That- that's about it. "

I think that the incident occurred on campus when he had been barred, showing explicit images without consent, then demanding that the girl take him to her room. Understandably, her mother is out for blood.

great insight into this guy on the news tonight: “I want to play golf with obama(nation). Have you ever played golf? No.” What more do we need? He would fit right into obamanation’s group of NO EXPERIENCE!!

Greene is what happens when a typical Democrat constituent beats a typical Democrat party elite in an election. EVERYTHING about Alvin Greene just screams that he's an ideal Democrat constituent, and everything the Obama campaign was intended to attract.

- Unemployed with no job prospects other than becoming a Senator
- Collecting unemployment benefits for almost a year now
- Clearly not very intelligent
- Bought into the Obama hope-changey thing
- Black guy who seems to only vote Democrat because he's black
- Up on charges for sexual obscenity (Bill Clinton, anyone?)

He is everything the IDEAL Democrat voter should be. And they're furious about that fact.

It sounds like one of those things that would fit into the category of sexual harassment if it happened in a workplace or something like that, but I don’t really think it should be a criminal prosecution. Walking up to a random person on a street and flashing out a porno magazine is bad manners and a little odd but it shouldn’t be illegal, as long as the target is an adult and as long as that person isn’t harmed in any way. If he did it to a coworker though it would be a civil offense and grounds for firing for sexual harassment...but that would require Alvin Greene to have a job.

Did you bother to research the charges or do you just make things up and post them here.
