Any of our representitives who voted yes for that amount of money for security should be taken out of office immediatly.
Using that kind of taxpayer funds to "protect" their fat asses is misuse of taxpayer funds, IMO.
Accountability? Where? To whom?
What a scam! And we keep on paying and bleeding.....
Usually you get kissed before you get ....well- you get my drift.

They're too busy obsessing over Obama's multi-country international rallies. I doubt it will get a whiff of coverage by the MSM.

we also have to remember to make Senator Bob Beers life hell if he think he is going to run for any other office...for that matter anyone who was involved in this event!!
We did win 7 delegates before they shut the convention down, so regardless of the June convention, shouldn't the 7 delegates still be seated? Or is the NVGOP going to ignore it entirely and submit a full slate of their hand-picked warmongers? Anyone know?
(I submitted it to Drudge, btw)

It just proves that the Republican Party is utterly corrupt, from top to bottom.
They really have no dignity, no sense of honor, and no longer even give anything more than lip service to the principles that made me join the Republican Party decades ago.
The Republicans become more corrupt and more dishonest every year.
They are going to get a righteous a$$ whipping this fall- maybe it will slap some sense into them, but I doubt it.

Okay, in honor of the Nevada Republican Party, I just sent $25 to Bob Barr (even though I'm still not thrilled with him), $25 to the CFL (hopefully, it will help get some decent candidates elected), and $5 to Barack Obama (partly as a "screw you" to John McCain and the Nevada GOP, and partly because I get a chance for a free all expense paid vacation in Denver for donating).

I agree. What will be effective? So, who's working on this? What can we do? How can we help?

PRESS RELEASE
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Nevada Republican State Delegates File Suit Against State Party
RENO, NV, July 18, 2008—Nevada State Republican delegates have filed a complaint in Second Judicial District Court late this evening, contending that the Nevada Republican Executive Committee’s decision to appoint national delegates is in violation of State law. The complaint alleges that the GOP’s decision to appoint delegates to the Republican National Convention violates NRS 293 because state delegates have been deprived of their ability to select national delegates at a convention.
“The State Executive Committee announced yesterday that they won’t bring the Nevada State Republican Convention out of recess,” said Wayne Terhune, a Republican activist in Washoe County. “They shut down the Convention in April, and now they aren’t giving delegates a chance to have their voices heard. This is a violation of the law.”
The complaint alleges that the State Executive Committee’s decision is in violation of NRS 293, which states: “In addition to such powers granted it, the state convention shall select the necessary delegates and alternates to the national convention of the party”. The complaint has been filed by local attorney Mark Goodman on behalf of several Nevada State Republican delegates.
Mike Weber, a local Republican who has served on the National Republican Rules Committee, announced early today that he is shifting the focus of his State Assembly race to make sure that the state delegates have their voices heard. “Most Republicans are getting fed up with party leaders because of underhanded tactics instead of principled leadership,” he said in a press release. “The announcement that national delegates will be appointed by a small group behind closed doors only reinforces this distrust.”
“The actions of the State Party are taking away the voice of every state delegate,” said Terhune. “Over a thousand delegates attended the convention in April, and the State Executive party officials are attempting to silence all of them. This is completely against the traditions of the Republican Party and the United States of America.”

hmmm
see how far that gets you, I want big things from the CFL, but i only expect small things,unless they form a new platform at our convention and make something happen,instead of expecting them to happen on their own. I have my doubts about this useless republican party. WE NEED A NEW PLATFORM AND A NEW BRAND NAME that crosses all party lines,if not,after the election we will be back to square one,trying to sell the R that no one wants to buy!!!!
