Why this blog?
Until this moment
I have been forced
to listen while media
and politicians alike
have told me
"what Canadians think".
In all that time they
never once asked.
This is just the voice of an ordinary Canadian yelling back at the radio - "You don't speak for me."

What a freak show.
"I'll do that one more time." Nudge, nudge, wink, wink. If you shout out real loud, you win the vote.
Huh?
Both shoutouts sounded exactly as loud as the other, but this guy says the Ays indicated a 2/3 majority.
Kyrie eleison.
What you mean Beelzebub has been cancelled and they can't inflate condoms for the balloon drop?
Dem Organizers Scrambling Since No Balloon Drop Following Obama Speech

I wonder what the 'War on Women' gals are going to do now with Sgt. Debbie Schultz and Colonel Sandra Frat House Fluke-up.
Gird up your loins, oh there is a battle a'comin...! The convention Hall is divided.
GOD and Jerusalem are back you say, but I thought the Doppler radar was indicating one helluvah lightning show on it's way?

Hans, I was so looking forward to mattress back Fluke getting a balloon drop of inflated condoms.
Question about DRC heard on Sirius radio this a.m.
Why are 50-year-old lesbians up on stage talking about contraception?
I wonder if dick durbin feels like a dick today..?..naw...
The venue is very small. This is all about control and generating the appearance of broad support from very few people. The platform vote illustrates the tenuous nature of the progressive hold on the democrat party. God was written out this year so they will make mention during the speeches and aggressively dismiss questions without answering as Durban has... but make no mistake, God is out. Now move along.
The platform vote was about Jerusalem and less-than-convincing vote (taken three times) clearly demonstrated that the Democrat Party delegates in the arena are the US version of the NDP.
My name is Sctt because apparently the is nt wrking, alng with a number f americans.
what was the yay and nay vte abut?
The isht has dun hit the fan!
Yeah thet vote was a phony as a three dolla' bill...whotta crock....
With a vote like that they should slip in the Communist Manifesto to please Obama. Getting a two-thirds majority sure looks easy.
This is why we should never call them the Democratic Party.
What shocked me most was not that he had difficulty determining whether there was majority support, but that there clearly wasn't 2/3rds support. Anyone committed to democracy would have held a row by row count or issued paper ballots.
Of course, the platform really doesn't matter because they don't really believe their own BS.
Oooooo the empty seats.
Well I suppose no one needs to show up when the votes already decided.
Scar: It's probably in there.
Just nobody's read it.....
Dick Durbin is very aptly named. Even if the name hadn't been on the screen I would have guessed he was a Dick.
It really saddens me that more and more people are waking up to the fact that democracy is a fable to keep the serfs in their pleasant, gilded pens, happily slaving away for their masters.

She said it so nice it had to be said twice...apparently.... :O)
The second clip looked like a meeting of Petrograd Soviet of Workers and Soldiers meeting in the Smolny Institute in the spring of 1917.
This shows how the Democratic Party and Obama are nothing but pure Words. Words.
They had deliberately left out Jerusalem as the capital and any mention of God, but, the feedback from the 'population-to-be-manipulated' was hostile, and so, they put the Words back in. But these remains Words. Not ideals, not commitments, not principles. Just Words. Empty as that Chair on Eastwood's stage.
They are moving the site of Obama's speech, not because they fear rain not a lightning bolt from his Father, Zeus, but because they can't fill the stadium.
They take no responsibility for the debt, and blame it ALL on Bush, ignoring that they controlled the budget from 2007 on to 2010. And that THEY racked up 5 trillion in debt all on their own.
"It was a consequence of the Obama administration's decision to treat the economic crisis as an opportunity to transform America by shoving through measures like Obamacare and Dodd-Frank. It was a consequence of their treating the so-called stimulus bill as an opportunity to enrich the constituencies supporting the party" (Paul Rahe, Ricochet).
Dems are the ones who have no problem allowing illegals and dead folk to vote so why would anyone be surprised by this demonstration of Democratic style voting.
It may look like there a alot of people in that convention centre but, given the Dem's propensity for lying and deception, I'd bet that alot of those seats are occupied by blow-up dolls - and most of them look like Nancy Pelosi and Sandra Flucked.
"Estupido peones!"
Jerusalem exists.God exists. What's the problem here?
That is scary!! He is given a completely open ended question allowing him to explain why God is no longer in the platform, and all he can do is accuse the questioner of having an agenda. It has been years since I have seen ANY politician asked a truly open question, and he could not take it. The pre-arranged "vote count" would have been funny if it had been in a Monty Python skit. At 0:14 he was ready to declare what he had been told to declare, and then he decided they needed to try again. Even a show of hands would have been better than that shout-down contest. What can you expect from a party that substitutes "protesting" for thinking? And what was that lady saying about "let them do what they're gonna do" at 0:47? Is that the delegates or the Almighty Ones Who Have Already Decided? Maybe that explains the shouting match. With no votes to count, they can declare whomever they want to be the winner. Votes are like facts; they should never get in the way of What Must Be Done.
@ Ken (Kulak):
Hilarious, yep they were letting the mask slip a little too much today.
Today was a demonstration on how to erode your vote in a serious way. I expect some backlash for all the "tooing and froing".
I wonder when they drop Mom and apple pie from the platform...oh wait.

Only the Democrats could vote on the existence of God, and rig the vote.
You do this type of vote with kids in a schoolroom. Not adults deciding a Nations future. A show of hands would have been best. Democrats always hiding in the shadows.
I thought the nays had it. There will be a whole lot of people that know they have been screwed. Incredible difference from 2008. The empty chair is now a sign of hope and change.
Lots of empty seats and empty heads. Local weather forcasts say Thursday is going to be the nicest day of the week. I wonder if the bus loads of "supporters" that were being brought in from SC & GA are still going to be paid (off) with taxpayer funds. Putting Nancy Pelosi on stage? I was totally wrong when I thought they could not dumb down Biden, but Pelosi is it.
The dems appear to be very unorganized, dishonest, and so hypocritical......(Ted Kennedy?) I've laughin' all day.
Even the small crowd seems unmanagable, no wonder they need a roof over their heads, cause they're in over their heads this go round, they can't even lead their own behinds. The platform they're promoting is laughable, their defense of their slate is less than weak, it's like wet toilet paper swirling down the bowl. Thank God (apparently 50% of dems voted it's ok,snark) Romney will win. Dick Morris says Clinton is still sore about the one playing the race card on him.
Debbie. Wasserman-Schultz:
You conservatives are taking this out of context. I have it on good authority that the people booing were upset that more people weren't cheering.

When it comes to Debbie Wasserman-Schulz I have two questions:
1. How do you know Debbie is lying?
Her lips are moving.
2. Which half of her family is most ashamed of this biatch?
Its a toss-up.
Michelle would like you to fast for the one

Aren't they just beautiful?
As Anne Coulter's excellent book is titled, Democrats are "Godless".
Heh, When I made my comment I was under the impression that the vote was on the platform excluding the mention of God and the language establishing Jerusalem as the capital of Israel.
It's much worse. The language was apparently removed without the knowledge of the delegates.
Then, upon the discovery of the removal by better media sources and the ensuing hue and cry, the language was quickly put to a vote for inclusion. That was the vote we saw. How revealing that is. The toothpaste has left the tube.
About 50% of the delegates are progressives. Once again the forces of antisemitism rise within the left. Once again atheist collectivists are rising to power. Now the angry Arab husband and vapid dihimmi wife make sense. The ties of the Axis run deep.
Ralph "Jerusalem exists.God exists. What's the problem here?"
Democrats exist?
Just shown on hannity. The vote results were on the TelePrompTer.
If you didn't think her lies could be any more blatant, you would be wrong. DWS does it again.

Let's not be too naive here. The Democrats have lots of experience rigging votes. Why would we assume they are above cheating their own, let alone the rest of us?
∞ ≠ ø: not quite. Platforms are subjected to focus group tests. What most likely happened was that their researchers discovered that the exclusions were extremely unpopular with those who are not Democrat voters, and The Machine decided they had to go back in at all costs.
The original version with the exclusions was at least honest, in that it's what the Party genuinely wanted. Not it's not.
That first video was great. Durban is about as genuine as that Debbie Waxer broad, which is why answering a simple honest question drives them so batty. He could have just answered "we don't want to make either God or Jerusalem the focal point of this election campaign", and moved on, but I guess if you are unaware of all the questions about "choice" Republicans had to answer about their platform during the RNC...

...and they read the answer off the teleprompter in the same way ..the nos were louder but the Repubs ignored the vote and marked down Yeas have it!
Syd, I saw that clip today. Anderson's remark was priceless. Just as good was John King chiming in at the end, "Did she ever get away with 'the dog ate my homework'".
When you've lost Anderson Cooper AND John King, you're circling the drain.
DWS: a face made for a thousand cumshots.
Seriously her wide eyed "goldilocks" schoolgirl get-up gets me up, and I'm sure many other "art-film" fans.
What she says? Well no-one takes that seriously, are you kidding?
We have been told to ram this down your throat by big Olberman's dick so we do not alianate more stupid voters who don't know what the game is all about. So, Swallow, or relax.
I don't recall any such brutality at the repubs' show.

I don't believe a word she's saying right now.
astern Paul, are you suggesting DWS should be known as Jism Jowels, or Cream Cheeks? :-) You are very disturbed to think about her in a sexual way.
I've been listening to the DNC and I wondering is it just me, or is it getting extremely whiny?
Syd, great vid. Obama has deigned to recognize God. His team's overlooking of the Deity was an oversight, a mis-understanding between bros, not a direct challenge.
The idiotic Dems are giving Romney and his team a great deal of good material to work with between now and the election, and I just hope they use it effectively.
