Wow, even the Huffington Post can't put a positive spin on this:

quote:

Democrats' Efforts To Reinsert 'God' And 'Jerusalem' Into Platform Met With Loud Opposition

CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- A rare unscripted moment at the Democratic National Convention here Wednesday resulted in an embarrassing moment for the party that is certain to be used in Republican television ads over the next two months.

After they took heat for omitting any reference to "God" in their platform, and for eliminating language from the 2008 platform that identified Jerusalem as the capital of Israel, Democrats tried to add the language back into their party platform with a voice vote.

A source informed on the deliberations told The Huffington Post that President Obama personally intervened to strengthen the language. Speaking with HuffPost, a senior Obama administration official also confirmed the president's involvement.

But when Los Angeles Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa, the convention chairman, came to the podium to ask for the approval of the delegates, those who shouted opposition to the language change were as loud, if not louder, than those who voiced their support.

Villaraigosa, in what quickly became an awkward moment, asked for the voice vote three times in all. After the second time, he paused for several seconds and looked behind him for guidance from a convention staffer -- possibly a parliamentarian -- before turning back and asking for a third vote.

Even though the no's were again as loud if not louder than the aye's on the third vote, Villaraigosa said he had determined that two thirds of those present had voted in favor. Boos filled the arena in response.

A day later they are voting to add this back into the platform. They need a 2/3 vote to pass it. You can tell the guy in charge was under orders to get it passed, but he knows the vote isn't there. After multiple attempts, he simply calls it passed.

Sifo, I was composing my first post above at the same time you were composing yours; didn't mean to walk on your post.

Have you seen DWS telling us tonight it was just a "technical error" that God and Jerusalem were originally omitted from the platform? Does she EVER tell the truth?!?



Anderson Cooper, normally a go-to liberal journo, said she "exists in another universe."

Also, didya see the still pic that Fox posted on the 'net tonight of the teleprompter that Mayor Villaraigosa was reading from? The passage of the two amendments was scripted for him!

This is like watching a train wreck in slow motion.

Clinton is plenty coherent compared to Eastwood babbling at an empty chair and pretending the POTUS is spewing disrespect innapropriately on national TV. They should have given Eastwood three minutes, tops.

Fluke the poster child for Idiot women.

Women protest for years claiming they are independant and do not need men or any one telling them what to do with thier bodies. Then want Uncle Sugar to pay for every birth control abortion transgender surgery etc. Not understanding he who pays the bills gets to determine how its spent.
Once gov pays for you, it controls you! thats been proven through out history.
So Fluke wants a Sugar Daddy( the taxpayer) to pay her bills Classic camp follower You can figure out whose camp she follows.

I thought the ammendment was only for three consecutive terms.

Besides - not like anyone in Washington is paying much attention to the original document - it is all write em as you see em for the most money now , and F the Republic.

Nice to see the Dems walk back their "we're moving it inside due to weather" . . that was so stupid not even 2nd graders were buying it . . . the excitement and the crowds are just not happening . .folks got sucked into that vacuous "Hope and Change" shit once . . .

DWS . . . "TAKING" (it's not like it was an error where someone left something out, someone purposely changed it) the word "God" and the capital is Israel out was a "technical oversight". Doubtful . . . it was intentional UNTIL (like Obama care) until someone caught them.

Pure silliness . . .

Nice to see Rahm resign from the campaign . . .he's going fund raising now that Romney is taking most the money for the last 4 months . . Obama's having a tough time scratching cash.

Who can explain the mormon religion to me ?
Joseph Smith is the founder(now there name to rival Jesus if ever I heard one)..lol; Good old Joseph Smith received golden tablets which he apparently lost somewhere;if not,where are they?
America the Mormon place where "In God we trust"..but which God?
Look to Gods word the Bible for the answers ..Read Revelation 22:18 and understand ,these people are deluded.
Book of moron is adding to the bible.
Vote for a mormon and America will trust in what?
A lie?

Alfau:

Did you watch the repub convention?

Romneys' story was told by People who knew him
not highliners but regular folks like us.

in the end I believe that he has a servants heart, and believes in Christ.

we have a choice Him or Obama, You a christian can stomach a man who has declared that America is not a christian nation, among his other acts?
