1. Video doesn't work but
did Meg say this after today's press conference?

If so, Meg is really digging herself a deeper hole. More power to her.

2. Just noticed it says "embedding disabled by request"...

...so when that message comes up, if you click on the clip again, it will take you to YouTube and you can see it there (I just tried it).

This was before Allred's press conference today.

So Whitman basically came out and said it's all lies and a smear campaign, and Allred came out immediately after that and held up huge blow-up versions of the supporting evidence.

And Allred said "If she denies it, I'll be back with more evidence."

:patriot:

3. "Nikki, Please take care of this."
Pants on fire much, Meg?

:rofl:

6. The handwriting is on the wall - and apparently on the govt documents! Poor Whitman

who'd have thought someone would have kept proof that she and her husband DID know about it?

who'd have thunk it!

bwahahahahahah Meg, as seen in that video, is a self-serving pariah - no sense of genuine emotion whatsoever

8. I think the only genuine emotion we've heard about...
Is the anger she displayed when she physically shoved the media trainer in her office. Oh NutMeg... there are meds for that now... no need to suffer.

4. Meg Whitman hired an illegal alien, did not adequately check
her background and then fired her because it was the politically expedient thing to do.

That is pretty indisputable.

Count on Meg Whitman to try to pay her employees as little as possible. Had she hired an educated American citizen to do the work she hired this lovely immigrant to do, Meg would have had to pay far more money -- and that is what she did not want to have to do.

5. I can only assume
This has been know for quite sometime and Meg's opposition waited till the very end after Whitman had spent millions on her campaign to drop the bomb.

If there was a word that could combine the terms "awesome" and "brilliant", I would use that to describe this situation.

7. I wouldn't FIRE a member of my family I would take up
for them. If she really considered her a member of the family she would have tried to get her legal status instead of firing her.

9. Thank you!
I wouldn't fire a family member under these conditions either! Especially if I had MEGa bucks! I'd hire an immigration lawyer, and then get out in front of the message... use it in the campaign. She could have easily spun this into a positive if she had a shred of political smarts. Thinking on your feet is a critical and indispensable political asset.

Meg... plblblblblblb....
