Presenting The Democratic National Convention's "Ron Paul Moment"

Tyler Durden's picture




 

Moments ago we learned that the Democrats have once again reinstated language into their party platform that recognizes Jerusalem as the capital of Israel as well as the words "God-given" that were removed in this year's platform. However, the 'vote' on this controversial decision (shown in the clip below), brings back vivid memories of the GOP convention's own Ron Paul moment; and must be seen to be believed as the true state of our nation's "democratic process" is once again exposed for all to see. Simply remarkable...

And this happened earlier:

After sharp criticism from Mitt Romney and Republicans, the Democrats have reinstated the language into their party platform that recognizes Jerusalem as the capital of Israel as well as the words "God-given" that were removed in this year's platform.

 

The platform released by Democrats Monday evening dropped a clause included in the 2008 platform that read: "Jerusalem is and will remain the capital of Israel." That platform went on to say, however, that "[t]he parties have agreed that Jerusalem is a matter for final status negotiations. It should remain an undivided city accessible to people of all faiths."

 

The party reinstated the 2008 language into this year's platform to "reflect the President's personal view," CBS News has learned.

 

Israel maintains that its capital is Jerusalem, but the United States and other nations maintain embassies in Tel Aviv because East Jerusalem is contested by the Palestinians, who see it as a potential capital for their state.

 

Romney called Jerusalem "the capital of Israel" in July, prompting criticism from the Palestinians as well as China. Senior Palestinian official Saeb Erekat called the comment "absolutely unacceptable."

 

But as a presidential candidate, Mr. Obama said in 2008 that "Jerusalem will remain the capital of Israel and it must remain undivided," though he later softened his stance and said he is not trying to "predetermine" the final status of the city. As president, he has maintained that, as his campaign put it to CBS News, "the capital is something that should be determined in final status negotiations between the parties."

 

Romney said in a statement Tuesday that it's "unfortunate that the entire Democratic Party has embraced President Obama's shameful refusal to acknowledge that Jerusalem is Israel's capital."

 

"Four years of President Obama's repeated attempts to create distance between the United States and our cherished ally have led the Democratic Party to remove from their platform an unequivocal acknowledgment of a simple reality," he said. "As president, I will restore our relationship with Israel and stand shoulder to shoulder with our close ally."

 

Meantime, the word "God" was dropped from a paragraph that, in 2008, spoke of giving those willing to work the opportunity to "make the most of their God-given potential." In this year's platform a similar paragraph reads "the simple principle that in America, hard work should pay off, responsibility should be rewarded, and each one of us should be able to go as far as our talent and drive take us."

Tell me about this 'role'?

Collectivization and Stalin's central planning caused this, Europe's worst famine ever. Just like environmentalist's push of ethanol today is starving people all over the world with wildly high corn prices (exacerbated by drought). Central Planning causes  famine ... just ask Russians, Ukrainians, Georgians, Chinese, Mexicans and Africans. It seems so strange to me that whenever genocide happens it always seem to be the Zionist's fault.

The Latvian genocide, under the Nazis - with Latvian collaborators - and then the Soviets, which killed mainly Jews (about 95% of the Jewish population of Latvia, if memory serves), was obviously the Jews' doing. Nothing to do with the fact that, as a matter of historical record (and by the latter's own admission), FDR and Churchill cut the Baltic states loose so as not to antagonize Stalin.

I think it's bottom line all about control of oil money. The oil barons don't want it blatant, and use conflicts, prejudice to sidetrack. Even this AIPAC donations to dems and R's is a diversion. What about arab oil deals to politicians in much greater sums.

Obvious point from this clip is put a fork in democracy.

Yep. Many congress people said that when they took office, an AIPAC delegation was waiting for them at their office with a pledge they had to sign to lick Israel's boots all the way. 99% of them signs it without question. The other 1% is Ron Paul basically who doesn't bow down to anyone.

If Israel wasn't full of jews, it would be hated for what it does. Israel is an apartheid, warmongering theocracy. If Israel was full of arabs, the neo-cons would be talking about bombing the shit out of them.

Israel is full of Muslims. You know the ones who didn't leave and become refugees. That really tells you all you need to know. The Palestinians that Israel is suppose to be oppressing live better lives in Israel than their refugee brethren who left Israel. That's the difference between Jews and Muslims. How many Jews left in any of the Islamic nations of the ME?

There's 20 000+ in Iran. Even a few in their parliament.

Look if you really want to go after ``the crazies``, look at Pakistan and Saudi Arabia. They've got a way higher crazy/pro-sharia law-per-100 000 people ratio than Iran. Most of Iran are youngsters. Most of them are pro-western culture.

There's also the important fact that Ahmadinejad is getting his ass handed to him by his own people for being a crazy SOB... just like Bush was hated by most Americans. Next year, he's GONE. The new one will probably be way more moderate and the neo-cons and warmongering zionists won't be able to stir up the ``they want to wipe us off the map`` line of BS... and that pisses them off.

Let's get real. Nobody wants war with Iran. Not Americans, not Israelis, not Iranians, not many in the Mossad, IDF, Shin Bet, CIA, etc... only a few neo-cons, evangelicals and extremists zionists want it... they are not even 1% of the population. FUCK EM.

Israel IS full of Muslims, which is what's so funny about the idea that they're going to retain the West Bank forever.

They're very well armed and trained, and I'm sure they can maintain apartheid for a long time, but the demographics will defeat them, eventually.

Either they make the Palestinians citizens (and thus lose the "Jewish state") or they keep fighting until they lose the Jewish state.  I think it's safe to bet they'll keep fighting. 

I'd personally prefer to be left of out all that, being an American who doesn't claim the right to give away other people's land.

As Biden did the media rounds during and after the convention, we at the Media Research Center compiled a list of questions we wish the liberal media would pose to Biden. Questions that we would not expect to tumble from their Obama-loving lips:
1. Last month you made a racist comment to blacks that Republicans are going to "put y'all back in chains." Charlie Rangel said that your comment was "stupid." What does it feel like to be called "stupid" by Charlie Rangel?
2. In 2008, you turned to wheelchair-bound Missouri state Sen. Chuck Graham and told him to "stand up, Chuck, let 'em see ya." Had you ever said anything as asinine as that before?
3. In October of 2008, you said: "The No. 1 job facing the middle class ... is a three-letter word: Jobs. J-O-B-S, jobs." Is it a challenge for you to count past 3?
4. In 2010, you turned to President Obama after Obamacare passed and on live national television said, "This is a big f---ing deal." Had you ever seen a big f---ing microphone before?
5. If the president had taken your advice to not go after Bin Laden, Bin Laden may still be alive today. What other bizarre foreign policy advice have you given that, thank God, no one took?
6. In 2010, you mistakenly told Irish Prime Minister Brian Cowen that his mother had passed. When you were young, did you ever prank neighbors with dead-mom jokes? (Biden mocked Ryan for quoting his father without really noticing Ryan's father died when he was a teenager.)
7. In June 2006, you said, "You can't go to a 7-11 or a Dunkin' Donuts unless you have a slight Indian accent." Did you ever try this theory in person? In your judgment, do you think folks could learn how to model their Indian accents after Abu on "The Simpsons"?
8. Then in January of 2007, you said, "You got the first mainstream African-American who is articulate and bright and clean and a nice-looking guy." Since he was the first, what advice would you give to other inarticulate, dumb, dirty and ugly African-Americans such as Clarence Thomas and Oprah Winfrey to help them clean up their acts?
9. In October of 2011, when you said that if Republicans didn't pass your jobs bill, "Murder will continue to rise, rape will continue to rise, all crimes will continue to rise." Was that fear mongering or just simply idiotic?
10. In 2008, you said: "Hillary Clinton is as qualified or more qualified than I am to be vice president of the United States of America." Did you ever imagine you could be so right?

Whose side is God on?

You have to wonder about this.

Republicans, Democrats, Libertarians, Independents, many claim God is on their side.

I see a quarterback praying before every play, is God on his side or the other side?

America thinks God is on its side, so does England, Germany, Iran and so on.

Many think God is only on Israel's side and that Jerusalem is God's favorite city.

Then again, God created it all so God may not really be concerned with cities, football, politics, countries and so forth.

If there are so many different claims about one God, methinks there is a communication problem somewhere as I don't think God is fickle, do you?  :)

Technically, wouldn't it be none of the above, but the question would really be who is on God's side? If you believe in an omniscient God he isn't going to be on anybody elses side. And you can't really tell who He favors by an election, if you believe in that biblical stuff, didn't He frequently use pagan kings throughout the OT to punish His people Israel?

Just sayin.

If democratic process means the two conventions representing the pitiful state of a duopolistic political spectrum, their docile supporters, representing the contemptible circus, being pandered with platitudinal promises and effusive prevarications, until they are firmly divided amongst their respective, immoderate political sects, propagating their destructively naive expectations and demands within their predictable, socially validatory herd behaviour, confirming their militant opposition for the antagonistic evil, while cheering for their own leader, who will single-handedly lead them to their promise-land, despite them being woefully unaware of what it is, what it needs, how it's done, or how it should be.

Fuck any ideological basis, obviously, while shaping your their mandates to fit the masses' demands, while ensuring a return of investment, for their sponsors, and providing the illusion of choice and meaningfulness of individual vote, for the clueless mobs, who cry and applaud while the despicable orators, pledge their allegiance to the flag, God, and to whatever partner-nations serve or need, in order to assure the necessary amalgamation of wealth-generating sources and populational dependency and influence.

Fuck everyone who partakes in this disgraceful charade; fast-forward four years from now and bring the wondrous knowledge of the hindsightful obviousness, obviously possessed by every drumbeating sage, regardless of the result.

That's tonight, when Nancy Pelosi speaks.

To illustrate his point, Lauter told a Pelosi story that has become almost legendary in the Jewish community. 

At an AIPAC members luncheon in San Francisco right after the Sept. 11 terror attacks, Pelosi was speaking when an alarm sounded. 

"Everybody started getting nervous, scrambling toward the door," Lauter recalled. One person, though, was reading the words of "Hatikvah," the Israeli national anthem, above the din. It was Pelosi. 

"It actually calmed the crowd," Lauter said. "You could see people actually smiling, saying, 'Wow.' " 

This "wasn't something done purposefully to show everyone that Nancy Pelosi supports the Jewish community," he said. It "actually came from inside her."

In addition, their strong moral and spiritual convictions helped to form the foundations of our nation and our government.
