Harvey Weinstein Threatens Pelosi Over Clinton

cnnwire.blogs.cnn.com — In a heated phone call with House Speaker Nancy Pelosi late last month, Hillary Clinton supporter Harvey Weinstein threatened to cut off campaign money to congressional Democrats unless Pelosi embraced a new plan by the movie mogul to finance a revote of the Democratic presidential primaries in Florida and Michigan.

  • yellowcakewalk, on 05/09/2008, -5/+121Look at how the "elites" push around elected politicians and demand that they get the candidate they want.
    • allowners, on 05/09/2008, -1/+50They bought them, they expect to get their money's worth in return.
    • MajorLeague, on 05/09/2008, -1/+13I'm sorry but the entire Democratic primary process promotes this with the inclusion of superdelegates.
    • JayTee44, on 05/09/2008, -1/+4....And that's your Democrat party indulging Weinstein. What a bunch of elite jerks.
    • srondizzle, on 05/09/2008, -1/+1"Elite" is hardly the term I'd use for the person who released such cinematic gems as Scary Move 4 and Who's Your Caddy...
  • liseycat, on 05/09/2008, -6/+43Typical Clinton politics. When will Hill & Bill realize the stuff they could get away with in the 90's won't work anymore? They cannot buy Hillary the Presidency. Let Michigan come up with their own plan, let the DNC approve it, and move on!
    • oldhick, on 05/09/2008, -0/+25This isn't Clinton politics, this is the elite proving they can buy elections. Weinstein's on an ego trip.
      • KiraDnote, on 05/09/2008, -2/+1You read 4 sentences of an unconfirmed news article, and then you feel justified in criticizing Harvey Weinstein. As if you actually know and understand everything that's going on in presidential politics and are capable of reaching sound conclusions.
        • oldhick, on 05/09/2008, -0/+1You are absolutely right. I have never read another thing in my life about the election. I have never heard of Harvey Weinstein in my life. I am such a huge idiot!!!
          Now, to be serious, I don't believe I ever claimed to "understand everything". I don't believe I ever will. But I can become informed and understand "some things".
          In case you would also like to get informed, I can provide you with many other sources from which you can read:
          http://www.cnn.com/2008/POLITICS/05/08/weinstein.p ...

          http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/artic ... - wants Michael Moore to cut unflattering Clinton scenes from Sicko
          there hundreds of other articles that show what Clinton loving douche Weinstein is and how he tries to use his power to control people.
    • bitfreak, on 05/09/2008, -1/+18The Clinton's have been utterly hammered by 'those damned internets'. They just don't get it; everything they say or do, or the people they are connected to say or do, is available. With the lights on 24/7, life is much harder for the *****.
      • aliengoods, on 05/09/2008, -0/+7At first I thought that was a genius metaphor, but then I realized it's fault. You can get rid of *****.
    • yojiffyskippy, on 05/09/2008, -0/+1Are you suggesting Clinton bought his way into the Whitehouse?
      • CrazyZ, on 05/09/2008, -0/+1Every politician has bought their way into the Whitehouse. If you believe differently then they've fooled you.
  • RRJackson, on 05/09/2008, -57/+7Excellent. Keep that pressure up. Seat those delegates and let's send Obama back to Chicago.
    • motogoat, on 05/09/2008, -10/+6Hahahah! I'll see you when Obama is YOUR leader. We can then start to talk about actual change and progress when that happens.
      • RRJackson, on 05/09/2008, -18/+1Change, to be sure. But not in any positive or progressive sense. It's not an issue. He's not going to be president of anything unless Farrakhan decides to make him president of the Nation of Islam.
        • brstilson, on 05/09/2008, -1/+11Wow, the Clinton people are really grasping at straws. I was hoping I'd get to meet an intelligent one someday.

          Today is not that day.
        • whodoes, on 05/09/2008, -1/+4Hey Rush !! Mega-dittos ! I didnt know you were on digg... as long as youre here I had some thinking I was hoping you could do for me, send a P.M. when you have a sec.
          • papipablo, on 05/09/2008, -1/+1Dude, Rush is nowhere near as fat as RR Jackson.
          • RRJackson, on 05/09/2008, -3/+1Said a man who wakes up in the morning with me on his mind.
  • disfunktion, on 05/09/2008, -4/+38Typical tactics from ELITE Clinton supporters. If they can't have it legitimately, they'll buy it..
    • oldhick, on 05/09/2008, -12/+6These are the tactics of elite Obama, Clinton, Bush, McCain supporters... This isn't about Hillary nearly as much as its about rules not applying to the rich.
      • disfunktion, on 05/09/2008, -3/+12I would never deny that. What needs to be pointed out is the obvious, evidently. That is that Hillary has been branding herself as a canidate for working class folks and has been trying to label Obama as an Elitist. She is points out that the company he keeps is part of Obama's problem yet look at the company she keeps. Obama comes from a lower-middle class up bringing while she came into the world with the silver spoon dangling from her mouth. Obama got lucky and made good money on his book and has become a successful politician but even he was in debt as little as 5 years ago. The Clintons are multi-millionaires. Lumping Obama into the Clintons group is un fair and reasonable and shows you don't know what you are talking about. It has everything to do with Hillary as the story is about a rich supporter of hers threatening the party monetarily because he doesn't like that she has all but lost the nomination.
        • oldhick, on 05/09/2008, -5/+5Dude, you're one of these people who believe your candidate can do no wrong while all the others are evil. I can easily lump Obama and the Clintons into groups depending on the circumstances.
          No one is perfect. Be careful as you mouth off. As you condemn Hilary for something a rich friend has done, you open the door for Obama to be held accountable for everything his friends do. If you honestly believe Obama has no dirty or unethical supporters than you're a fool. Politics is dirty, dirty business my friend.
          Lets just both agree that rich *****'s shouldn't get to change the rules.
          • TheXeno, on 05/09/2008, -0/+3Not everyone that is rich is morally corrupt. Not everything that is popular has sold out. And not every politician is a evil bastard. There are other sides to those coins, but maybe ya get the idea.
          • oldhick, on 05/09/2008, -0/+1I disagree about the politician part, but with you on the rest.
        • disfunktion, on 05/09/2008, -2/+7I never once said Obama is perfect, he is after all, a politician, no? I just dont see how you could possibly believe he and Hillary are a like? If you believe that then you are out of touch. There is no mouthing off being done by me. I am able to call it like I see as you went out of your way to mouth off to my original comment. Obama has to have people pulling for him that I dont not agree with as he has made it this far, so we can agree there. Since once again I need to point out that the topic here is Hillary and her dirty friends, that was the subject of this story. You are more then able to talk about Obama's dirty dealings on articles about his friends bullying democratic leaders. For some reason or another, I sure don't see a lot of those articles from reputable sources though..

          Yes Rich *****'s are scum and they shouldn't be allowed to do this. Seems to be the way of our world and our politics in America. Shocking isn't it? Not really.
          • KiraDnote, on 05/09/2008, -0/+2Re-read the story. It's not about Clinton. They just threw her name in there to dupe idiots like you. Go ahead, re-read it.
          • disfunktion, on 05/10/2008, -1/+0Once again, I said it is about her Supporter. He is IN FACT, her supporter. He did in FACT contact Pelosi for a re-vote. Maybe you are the one missing something from the article. All media outlets have reported the story the same way. You are the idiot being duped by that repugnant women. But go ahead and keep up your anti-obama crusade, you keep fightin' that good fight....
  • TKOslam, on 05/09/2008, -29/+20The party is in a fiscal position, thanks to Obama's fundraising, to tell that fat voter subverting Jew to go suck a dick. Sorry Hill Mitt Romney already proved that you cant buy this election, try again when you arent in this for the money b'ya.
    • oldhick, on 05/09/2008, -11/+16Take your anti-antisemitism somewhere else douche bag.
    • plimpton777, on 05/09/2008, -1/+9LOL funny!
    • travis6690, on 05/09/2008, -4/+6Anti-semitic troll is anti-semitic. And retarded. Take off your white hood, you're not welcome here.
    • hagfish70, on 05/09/2008, -0/+7Ummm sensitive much? I'm a jew and I did not regard his statement to be anti-semitic. I mean he called a jew a jew, duh.
    • brstilson, on 05/09/2008, -4/+3I don't hate Jewish people as a whole, it's just the elitist Jews I can't stand (aka Ben Stein, Harvey Weinstein). ***** them AND their bowties!
    • altgeeky1, on 05/09/2008, -1/+4You know, you lost everyone when you said 'Jew'. It's hard to tell if you meant a racist statement, but you had to know you would get blasted that way... and torpedo your valid point in the process.
      HAD you said, "The party is in a fiscal position, thanks to Obama's fundraising, to tell that fat voter subverting fatcat to ***** OFF", you would be less abrasive and dugg, not buried. And leave out the Romney rant, it all makes you sound angry.

      But yeah, it would be nice to tell Weinstein to ***** off. No contributer should have that much power.

  • bitfreak, on 05/09/2008, -2/+27Hey Harvey, maybe you could use some of that big money of yours and buy yourself a clue. You backed the wrong horse. So just ask Tito to get you a tissue and move along.

    • yojiffyskippy, on 05/09/2008, -8/+1Probably not considering that Obama is against it. That might ***** the voters off enough to vote against him.
      • dagamer34, on 05/09/2008, -0/+3Throwing together a mail-in revote without thinking of the security issues is like asking for Florida 2000 all over again.
        • bjornski, on 05/09/2008, -0/+1No kidding. And can you just see the overdrive mode that Limbaugh and his "Operation Chaos" would go into, in order to swap those re-votes? Think you've seen negative campaigning? You won't have seen anything yet if those two states have re-votes. The airwaves would be absolutely toxic leading up to them.

          Nope. They decided to vote early, knowing they'd lose their delegates. They chose. They live with it.

          There would be more problems with a re-vote than benefits at this point. If the voters in those states are ***** enough about it, maybe they should take it up with their elected officials who decided to do something so ***** stupid, and vote them out.
    • Eganj, on 05/09/2008, -0/+2Yeah but after she gets trashed in the election there she will put together some ***** about how the votes shouldn't be allowed while denying she ever wanted a re-vote.
  • motogoat, on 05/09/2008, -2/+23Ms. Pelosi, I TOLD you...I'm BUYING this election! I can buy ANYTHING I want! Do you not realize that rich people get everything they WANT! Including Presidential candidates?! I don't care what the people SAY! I'm the one with the money! Some of those people who want Obama are even....gasp...BLACK!
  • plimpton777, on 05/09/2008, -7/+74Harvey Weinstein is such a dick. I spit in his Diet Coke when I served him at a restaurant last year--best thing I ever did.
    • jer2eydevil88, on 05/09/2008, -3/+4Nice, but gross.
      • MarkusDee, on 05/09/2008, -1/+0I had a boss once who was a real asshole and would always make me and this other guy get his coffee (dumb - as it didn't take us long to start spitting in it), Anyway, this one time I come around the corner and my coworker is laughing his ass off. I ask him what's up, seeing the coffee cup in his hand, and he tells me he just dunked his balls in the guys cup. I never saw it happen but from the way he was laughing I'm inclined to believe it. Also, I'm guessing the coffee was at the bottom of the pot and couldn't have been too hot. I still smile thinking about that.
    • thefirstenemy, on 05/09/2008, -7/+26Dick move Plimpton. I can't stand people who do ***** like that to people's food, even if the person probably deserves it.
      • Spamcan, on 05/09/2008, -5/+14I always assume people spit in my food, that way half the time I'm pleasantly surprised that they don't.

        Plimpton, you took a chance that could have cost you your job and didn't. Every time a wage slaver sticks it to the man a sleepy Mcemployee somewhere in the world gets 3 seconds of sleep on the company clock. You deserve a metal, but all I can offer is a digg.

      • kanabiis, on 05/09/2008, -1/+2Wait a minute, didn't those states break the rules? Is that what democracy is about, agree on some rules, break them, then cry about being punished and demand to be included in the game that you broke the rules in the first time, because damnit this is a democracy.

        Can I have a bit of what you are smoking, please...
  • kratsnitram, on 05/09/2008, -1/+7How about the Ms. Pelosi ask the IRS to do a deep ***** dive on Mr. Weinstein's returns? How about we exact some retribution for this *****-face trying to threaten the Speaker of the House?

  • MajorLeague, on 05/09/2008, -0/+3Not like the inclusion of superdelegates invites a house of parliament style culture.

    The Democrats need to reform their primary structure.

  • ab2650, on 05/09/2008, -2/+4Did anyone actually read the article?
    Weinstein [...] called CNN Thursday to vehemently deny that he issued any threats. “Never, ever was the thought about denying funding to Democrats,” he said.
    • Eganj, on 05/09/2008, -2/+1You think he would openly admidt to attempting to extort the friggin speaker of the house and purchase a presidential candidate? Me neither...I believe him...
    • hagfish70, on 05/09/2008, -2/+2Oh right. That's probably as true as the sniper fire that almost hit hillary clinton.
  • dartmanx, on 05/09/2008, -1/+4Harvey Weinstein is hurting himself by cutting off candidates than he is hurting them. He doesn't give them money, he no longer gets what he wants from them. He will suddenly wonder why there are parties going on that he isn't invited to, or why fewer people (and politicians) show up at the ones he throws.
  • Asheis, on 05/09/2008, -1/+4This wouldn't have even been an issue if florida and michigan hadn't broken the rules to begin with.
    • purzzzell, on 05/09/2008, -0/+1Offhand, I can't recall what MI was thinking - in FL, it was done by a republican state government - one could say it was specifically done with the intent to break Dem party rules and leave Fl repubs feeling disenfranchised for the general election.

  • headzoo, on 05/09/2008, -0/+4I'm wondering what's in it for him. Why is it so important to him that Clinton gets the domination? And them maybe the presidency. Is he expecting some major paybacks when and if she's sitting in the oval office?

  • lhbaker, on 05/09/2008, -3/+1Sadly enough, Florida and Michigan ought to get a redo. If Hillary wins after adding them, or Obama wins after not counting them, nobody will really be satisfied. It's probably better to just redo them and not have this hanging out there until the Convention and beyond. I think Obama can carry Michigan, but there are too many old women in Florida to ignore. All we really need to do is use the confusing ballots again, and we can count Florida out.
    • MarkusDee, on 05/09/2008, -0/+1First, these two states shouldn't have broken the rules like they did. Second, I can have some sympathy for Michigan but Florida can go screw themselves after the last two election. Even if you saw 2000 was a steal, the fact that they voted for the chimp in 2004 is inexcusable.
  • warr1979, on 05/09/2008, -1/+8I am a Democratic in Florida. FLORIDA BROKE PARTY RULES !!! they tried to be slick and get more power and it failed!!! Next time they will not move up any primary dates and there votes will count!!! But this time around you break the rules you pay the price and come Novembers I will vote for the best candidate and its not going to be the one that wants my future children and grand children to fight in Iraq.....

  • DrThunder, on 05/09/2008, -0/+2Hillary does not want a re-vote in those states. She wants to count them as they are, with Obama not on one ballot and every informed voter not showing up because they were told the votes wouldn't count. A re-vote would give her nothing. Hell without Edwards on the ticket she would probably lose.

  • minox, on 05/09/2008, -1/+1My goodness. This is really an election of Dem politics coming home to roost. First the backfire of identity politics. Then there's the Hollywood backers trying to get disproportional control of the voting process. I've seen everything.
    • whodoes, on 05/09/2008, -0/+1keep laughing. Right up until the Talking-in-tongues-demon-expelling-Christo-fascist REPUBLICAN lunatics on the right get us into the crusade they want so desperately.

  • barddzen, on 05/09/2008, -0/+1I don't understand the big issue with MI and FL. There are rules that weren't followed why should there be a re-vote? The issue was investigated, discussed and a decision made. IMO the leadership in the DNC needs to get a sack and step-up and take control of this whole process. Allowing delegates to hold their votes "until the process completes" is total BS, especially after their home state has already completed the process.

    • whodoes, on 05/09/2008, -0/+1i dont have any problem with him supporting Hillary, but THIS form of action is deplorable and Its right in line with the Clinton style of at-all-costs politicking.
  • gkiltz, on 05/09/2008, -0/+0If Obama is really sure he can't win with a more mainstream running mate, at very least, Pelosi is simply not the lightning rod who's going to ***** off his opponents that Clinton is!
  • bshock, on 05/09/2008, -0/+1There are about 10,000 people in the U.S. who could improve the world by leaving it.

    Hillary Clinton is one of them. Apparently, so is Harvey Weinstein.
  • RayPublica, on 05/09/2008, -0/+0If this is true - and I have no doubt that it is - then we are looking at a case of extortion and bribery. Weinstein et al are not just saying "If you don't do as I say, I will stop funding you." What they are saying is "If you vote my way, I will give you lots of money." Congress and the Justice Dept should be all over this. It would, of course, require that our stalwart representatives have the integrity to bite the hand that feeds them. This is exactly what is wrong with America today and exactly what the founding fathers warned of. Weinstein and any congressmen who caved in to his demands or who refuse to cooperate in an investigation need to be made examples of and put away for the remainder of their lives.
