I can provide people who can refute that, but I don't have (or care about)
the details enough to bother quoting them.

Well you would know, you were working for the Democratic National
Committee back when they selected Denver and started working the
logistics. No, wait, that was actually me.


Ah, then you shouldn't have said IIRC now should you? That expressly indicates you may or may not recall something you 
read/heard/etc. 

But since you do know the details of that, then pray tell which hotels they brought in union workers at? Because I'd 
love to see how that played out. Or were you talking about some other type of facility that we weren't discussing?
