The delegates to the RNC had a very raucous afternoon, in Cleveland. The vote of the Rules Committee report was rammed through without regard to voting accuracy. The room roared with passionate shouts during the entire call of the voice vote. It was impossible for any audible distinction to be ascertained by an honest chairman. Former Virginia Attorney General, Ken Cuccinelli, screamed into a dead microphone from the floor, to no avail. The permanent Rules of the Republican party clearly direct a chairman to call for standing vote or roll call, but the convention directors would have none of it. They immediately laid any reconsideration motion on the table and moved on. |
Ken Cuccinelli then threw his credentials and floor pass on the floor is utter disgust. Senator Mike Lee was yelling into another deadened microphone to no avail. It was clearly an orchestrated effort to silence any dissent and commence with the political info-mercial. Several national media outlets used works like 'mayhem', anarchy, sham, and fraud. It was clearly yet another installment of the miscarriage of democratic integrity. Both the RNC & DNC have shameful legacies at the very highest ranks. | |
