So, Mitt can kiss southern Florida and any Latino votes goodbye...

Wow. That's shameful. A sea of white faces taunting a Latina and she's even a Republican.

Link worked for me.

USA is a "shameful chant"?

 

[Remodeling Maidiac]

Only in the world of the Looney Left is chanting USA during an AMERICAN POLITICAL CONVENTION a bad thing.

What a duffus

I suppose it is too mentally challenging to post some details? A relevant quote?

The link is not working for me, either. But even if it was, posting a link without comment is laziness.

USA is a "shameful chant"?

To a Liberal, yes.

It wasn't taunting, UNLESS you first believe that latinos are somehow not part of the USA.

If you don't think that latinos are part of the USA, then this will reflect your own beliefs.

The USA! USA! USA! chants that echoed throughout the convention floor as Puerto Rican Committeewoman Zoraida Fonalledas was on stage Monday were a result of Ron Paul supporters protesting the "Credentials Report" and had nothing to do with Puerto Rico, a Republican National Committee spokesperson told us.

The convention floor was chaotic at around 4 p.m. when Fonalledas came out onto the stage, and the chants caused for a bit of an awkward moment.

The official statement is below.

“During today's Republican Convention Committee Reports, the Ron Paul followers exercised their right to free speech and protested the report by the Committee on Credentials. The Report by the Chairwoman of the Permanent Organization Committee followed. The protesters continued their boisterous protest of the Credentials Report which spilled over to the rest of the proceedings. To be clear, the attempt to disrupt the proceedings had to do with the report, not the Puerto Rico National Committeewoman. Puerto Rico and its delegation play a very important role in this Convention, and are an integral partner in the National Committee.”

Oh, the Ron Paul supporters huh?

Hey OP??

Pull your fucking head out of your ass.

Here is a video of the moment:

At 20 seconds, it looks like there are people chanting something in addition to "U.S.A.".

Also at 29 seconds there is a guy obviously chanting something different. Can't make it out, though.

If you're a kid try putting an American flag on your bike and go to school...
See how far you get before a school official makes the kid take it off...
And sends the kid to the Principals office.

But if that same kid got to school pulled it out of his pocket
put it on the ground and pissed on it that would not be a problem.
Hell that same school official would have probably joined in...

I don't understand it.Do Liberals hate this country.
Or do they hate that it's not the way Obama wants it to be???

Seriously. How is this a racial issue?

Haven't you noticed? Nearly every post convention thread is based on race. The left are scraping the bottom of the barrel. They got NOTHING else so this is the default nonsense we can expect I guess.

Really sad group.

 

[g5000]

It would be helpful if there was video of the convention of the minutes prior to the chanting to have some context. It is quite likely they were chanting in response to something which had just occurred and not because the PR delegate was there.

There's a better video at this link. FAUX appears to be stretching the truth. The USA chants start when the woman is introduced and walks out, and it isn't Ron Paul supporters yelling USA.

Just like their chief, The Great Divider.
