Nader | Nader Accuses Democrats Of Dirty Tricks

The Associated Press reports that Nader, “denied a spot on the Arizona ballot, on Friday accused the Democrats and presidential candidate John Kerry of engaging in political ‘dirty tricks:’”

Just hours before the developments in Arizona, Nader complained that the Democratic Party has “stepped up its obstruction tendencies” in challenging his ballot access. The consumer advocate said he had called the Kerry campaign three times Thursday, asking to chat with the candidate.

“We have to get a clarification if they’re going to engage in dirty tricks,” Nader told reporters at a news conference to criticize multinational corporations.

Hard as it is to fathom, Ralphie is becoming stranger every day. Hoodathunk it was even possible?

Democrats and dirty tricks? Imagine that! I thought they were pledged to save civilization from the barbarians.

They still call this guy a “consumer activist!” No surprise coming from the AP thought; they white wash everybody they like.
