Damnocrats Want "Special Food"

Showing their "elite liberal roots" and complete lack of connection with "average people," they're demanding very expensive "special foods" and "compostable" plates. "Fried foods, Styrofoam plates and bottled water are forbidden at the DNC Host Committee's 22 or so sponsored parties [That's a BUNCH of parties. But it's only OUR money, isn't it? -RT] this August, reports Douglas Brown. And so is liquid served in individual plastic containers. Plates must be reusable, like china, recyclable or compostable. The food should be local, organic or both. And caterers must provide foods in 'at least three of the following five colors: red, green, yellow, blue/purple, and white,' garnishes not included, according to a Request for Proposals, or RFP, distributed last week. The prospect of the DNC business windfall has tantalized caterers since Denver was named host city for the convention more than a year ago. Caterers praise the committee and Denver for their green ambitions, but some say they're baffled by parts of the RFP." And you can bet they didn't figure this into their price estimates.
