And the sheep keep hush hush..on both sides
Sorry, -- already been discussed.
Good video. My brother called and pointed out how HORRIBLE it was what the Dems did; I had to tell him the Republicans did the exact same thing a week earlier.
If that Democrat MC would have gone with his instincts, we could have found a real winner there.
Oh well.
People really believe that Ron Paul supporters made up over a third of the RNC? They may be more vocal, but there weren't that many of them.
I like Michael Garibaldi. He used to have a radio program that aired here in Portland. He makes a good host.
Garibaldi has been compromised by the shadows. That's probably why he has a conservative talk show.
LOL...
Why did I mess that?
As for the OP: how can the DNC compromise a nomination that's a done deal? Do any other candidates other than Obama have delegates? There wasn't even a compe ion. The in bent party candidate wins the nomination. It's automatic.
I told SA210 the Paul s would be smacked down because they threatened to hijack the convention in a most undemocratic manner. They have no one to blame but themselves and their whiny messiah.
And yeah, the DNC decided to save the convention from itself with the gawd and Israel prostration. Good on them.
I admit it: I love watching the Paulbots whine.
I sincerely hope you didn't sink money into this scam
You say that as if our system is democratic (and it's a good thing it isn't)....
The fact is, Paul supporters played by the rules of our political system and the GOP within the construct of the republican form of government established in the Cons ution.... it's a sad, sad day when an attempt to fairly determine the nominee based on the party's own rules is shut down and labeled as "crazy Paul s hijacking the convention," tbh....
Also, keep in mind that these conventions are funded by taxpayer money... if the parties want coronations instead of conventions, they should have to pay for it themselves, tbh...
Why is there even any voting at the conventions on the platforms if the platforms are already determined and the voting is scripted? Seems stupid.
Don't hurt him with knowledge and facts. I wish there was a way I could block his quotes as well though. lol
It's tightly scripted, choreographed $how BUS$INE$$, just like the entire, perversely, boringly, unnecessarily long campaign.
That's why the total up of Clint's speech wasting prime network viewing hour betrayed wonderfully how incompetent, amateur Gecko's campaign is, and how incompetent his WH would be.
The Prez campaign is just another product of TV watchers to sell to advertisers.
lol fairly
In that case, the rules were fairly determined to be lacking and were changed fairly.
But thank you and SA210 for saying you are against democracy. It's about time you admitted it.
No they weren't, the rules were changed at the last second as soon as Paul became eligible under the old rules, and changed via a rigged voice vote, tbh... nothing about the rule-changing process was fair... and by the way, even neocons are outraged about the the RNC pulled this year, because it doesn't just affect Paul supporters, it affects any grassroots in the GOP...
However, the Paul delegates were legally elected and en led to their seats at the convention as per the GOP's own rules (although many were disenfranchised, another crook move by the RNC).... no comparison whatsoever...
I am against mob-rule democracy, and proud of it, tbh.... you know who else was? Our founders, and the people who influenced them...But thank you and SA210 for saying you are against democracy. It's about time you admitted it.
"A democracy cannot exist as a permanent form of government. It can only exist until the voters discover that they can vote themselves largesse from the public treasury."The fact is, any system that relies on straw polls are deeply flawed: WAY too much media influence, easily-rigged electronic voting machines, and a system in which 51% of the American public can simply drown out the wishes of the 48% makes no sense, tbh.... a cons utional republic is the way to go...

Eligible for what? Making a bunch of useless distraction for a candidate who came in fourth in actual primary votes cast?
And they were legally removed because they were assholes who were working against the interest of the party.However, the Paul delegates were legally elected and en led to their seats at the convention as per the GOP's own rules (although many were disenfranchised, another crook move by the RNC).... no comparison whatsoever...
Ron Paul was 11% of the 48%. He and his drones demanded far too much than their numbers could ever merit.Blah, blah, blah....

He failed and his drones compounded his failure by being assholes. I hope he makes an independent run so all of you can fail all over again.
The "interest of the party" shouldn't be a mandate, otherwise, we have tyranny, tbh... and no, the delegates were NOT legally removed...
Apparently, UTSA is too busy teaching rhetorical devices to their students to bother educating you people on our political process, tbh...
