DNC convention goer's booed the word GOD being reinstated into their platform.

Just trying to help, Mac- I'm a Mac too, just 1951. Sorry you missed the party and education, 1969-76....lol

Yup, I'm afraid I missed the education that taught you folks how to play partisan games such as diversion, as you used with me. Frankly, I'm glad I missed those lessons.

Pretty lame. The fuck happened to that Party?

I KNEW this was a bullshit issue:

"God-given" is not what they were objecting to.

I guess when you have no ideas, no solutions, you have to make shit up to distract from your failure of a political party.

Actually Synth -- I feel for you.. Because you lose by ANY INTERPRETATION of what happened there.. Let's start with the TRUTHFUL interpretation..

They were booing because the Chair purposely flung this last minute shit at them and ask for a vote. 3 TIMES??? and THEN the Chair ignores the obvious floor vote and declares the Amendments "fixed".. The crowd boos.. Democracy was perverted. YOU HAPPY? Of course you are...

Why did they boo? Because they WANTED the platform changes that removed God and kicked jerusalem in the butt. And they were ANGRY that this change-back was being shoved down their throats.. Were they "booing God"?? Well sort of !!! Indirectly !!! More accurately stated -- they were Booing the fact that the Chair unilaterally put God back into the Platform.. They were "booing God" and that arrogant bastard from LA...

ANY INTERPRETATION is bad news.. Take your choice...

Either way -- on FULL DISPLAY was the chaos that is your revolutionary run party.. And the fact that the ASSEMBLAGE there is out of step with anything RESEMBLING tolerance, bipartisianship, or mainstream life. And the lack of organization was appalling when it comes to the waste of time and money on that "stadium deal".

The Democratic Party's Polarizing Convention

By Janice Shaw Crouse
9/10/12


Four lasting impressions remain from the Democratic Convention in Charlotte: (1) Delegates raucously booing the chairman's phony ruling accepting the amendment which put God and Jerusalem as the capital of Israel back into the official Democrat platform, (2) an obsessive focus on "reproductive freedom" -- contraception and abortion, (3) a disproportionate emphasis on "women's equality" in the face of a U.S. economy that is in crisis, and (4) rhetoric permeated with desperation, distortions, and demagoguery.

God and Jerusalem: Los Angeles Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa stood in front of the crowd of angry delegates to call for a vote as to whether to restore God and Jerusalem back into the 2012 platform. The rules required a two-thirds vote for this patchwork amendment to pass, but the yeas and nays were roughly equal. Finally, after three attempts to get consensus, the confused and perplexed mayor ruled as the teleprompter ordered him to rule, putting God and Jerusalem back in the platform. Obviously having been hoodwinked, the hall erupted in boos and jeers. Americans viewing the convention at home were astonished -- Democrats were actually booing and jeering God?

Who were these convention delegates of the party of Andrew Jackson who were so out of touch with everyday, God-fearing America? In the latest Gallup poll, more than 9 out of 10 Americans say they believe in God, and a near-record high of 63% are also in support of Israel. Why would the Democrats go out of their way to disavow God and disrespect those with deep religious beliefs about God? Equally amazing was the implied disavowal of Jerusalem as the capital and heart of Israel. What a shocking affront to the Jewish population, which has always been a major source of campaign funds and a voting bloc sure to vote for the president.

Desperation, Distortions, Demagoguery: While political conventions always present things in their party's favor, the Democratic convention was characterized by extraordinary desperation, distortions, and demagoguery. Several speakers stood out for all the wrong reasons.

Two high-profile female speakers were especially shocking. Debbie Wasserman Schultz said that the Israeli ambassador had told her that GOP policies would be a disaster for Israel. When the ambassador denied her claim, she said "conservative journalists" were making stuff up about what she had said. But there was a recording proving her a liar. Caroline Kennedy, gratuitously claiming to be a devout Catholic, objected to the 40 states that have voted to restrict abortion under certain circumstances, thus proclaiming that her theological authority exceeds that of her church's teaching.

OP: TOTAL Pubcrappe. So half of the 10% present had problems. That's democracy in action. Those were ALL those against. That's the Dem Party- NOT lockstep brainwashed twits and greedy rich a-holes. Check the GOP platform R+R are running from...hypocrites.

Lying Greedy Idiot Millionnaires 2012!!

I know, let's cut taxes on the bloated rich, destroy Medicare and health reform, raise taxes and fees on the nonrich, let corporate cheats run wild, cut aid to states and localities, raise military spending to more than the rest of the world combined, and worry about the debt in 2035.Absolute idiocy, dupes.

And outlaw abortion, free BC that will save tens of billions, and God knows what horrors for the nonrich and the country....All paid for by closing tax loopholes and write offs, all to be revealed once they get elected. Mainly, no doubt middle class write offs. Pub dupes!!

Listen to it again--there is no way that the chairman got a 2/3's vote.

This is the democrat party of today--and I find it very hard to believe that main stream democrats agree with this.

Of course it wasn't reported on the main stream media. That would have only made a 24/7 loop media coverage if God was booed at the RNC convention.
