{news} RE: [usgp-nc] WILD story about CT Greens Congressional race

[Amy Vas Nunes]

Pat Kane  an attorney herself and of   Fairfield  CTGP has offered to sue me 
in a private email! I am too poor to have a "personal" attorney I am also 
unthreatened. Cliff Thorton has intamated she has left the CTGP? Pat "showed 
up"" as an unkown person at a Fairfield GP meeting and offered to be Richard 
Duffys campaign manager as a trusting pers==son he said yes. Richard is one 
of the main persons in the IMpeachment movement he is a trained lawyer and 
lived in Indiia for many years past.Pat was at and possibly arranged the 
"secret"" unkown to Richard and I think chapter as a whole, meeting with 
Democrats reguarding Richard Duffy dropping out of the Ct Senate race with 
the Democratic party people. I have asked Pat PUBLICLLY to reply to 
following questions reguarding the " deal". It seems no transparent notes 
were taken or posted nor were there tapes.I am unclear HOW Richard dropped 
out or was asked to and if it was via a unanimus consensus of local 
Fairfield chapter?I ask Richard and David Bedell to clarify anything I 
belived they were NOT invited to this meeting?Sources have said Cliff 
Thorton[ Gov candidate and now a co chair after elections  and his Campaign 
managerKK now in Europe and a former Lamont employee] and KK might have 
attended?Please for the benifit of the ?CTGP and the "national rumor mill" 
reply to following questions Pat Kane or others! 1Who called meeting 2 Who 
set agenda what was it? 3 Where notes taken by whom where are they can they 
be posted  4 What was discussed offered? 5 Where  does the $5000 John Olsen 
{CT Unions leader} come into the story? I know money WAS NOT taken but 
wereco chairs asked about it and by whom? I know they said no
          Further more WHO is John Walsh and where does he get his 
info/rumors where is he from? Shouldn't he clarify wih Ct folks before 
posting? I am Nat USGP alternate and former co chair as welll as a founding 
memeber of CTGP for over ten years. I was in Hospitail durring Redding 
meeting could not attend is that where all this crazyness began********
