Alleged Hillary Clinton shoe thrower arraigned
2014-04-27
"U.S. Magistrate Judge Cam Ferenbach then granted the government's request to keep Ernst in federal custody, saying she was a flight risk and danger to the community. She is being held at a jail operated by a federal contractor in Pahrump, 63 miles west of Las Vegas
Enough with the Nevada, already
"Ernst wasn't a credentialed conference attendee and should not have been in the ballroom, authorities said. She somehow got past people checking tickets at the entrance, they said, and she was arrested immediately after the shoe was tossed."
I dunno. Something about this story stinks. For starters, was this a Khrushchev shoe trick, or was the lady partially shod on the way out?

#22  She is being held at a jail operated by a federal contractor in Pahrump, 63 miles west of Las Vegas

Imagine what would have happened to her had she thrown the shoe in D.C.

#21  She threw a shoe at Shrillery?

"At this point, what difference does it make?"

#20   In the local Native American dialect I believe the word pahrump means "waterhole".

The town of Pahrump Nevada appears to be located around several famous ones.

#15  Dammit all, Commodore Frank!!! I came up with a creative original idea, and you beat me with the Original Idea (TM) by one minute.

#14  Well, maybe the shoe thrower was enraged by an anti-muslim video. Now that is a possible theory.

#13  I heard she made an anti-Islamic video for the Interwebz too

#12  A) Won't get on MSM Narrative.
B) Won't get called political prisoner like Bush's shoe thrower was.

#11  Her only mistake was throwing the wrong shoe

#10  The Beast is both angry and envious. Ernst's shoe removal was.... unassisted.

#9  Funny that no mention is made of the stellar security at the door checking off the names of the 'credentialed conference attendees' as they entered. No doubt still being de-briefed then the Bundy Range Wars......

#8  No bail? She must be a real dangerous felon

#6  They screw much longer with this minor event they fall into the 'right to speedy trial' zone. How hard is it to put together the case. They're just using their power to punish without due process. She used a shoe. Even though the TSA makes you take them off, you can still fly with them.

#5  Well, why does this matter?

See missed. Get over it.

#3  That militia teleconference piece you posted yesterday was absolutely unbelievable. What a total cock-up.

#2  She's lucky the fedgov didn't deploy 20 of the meanest foreign mercenaries money can buy.
