BEGIN TRANSCRIPT
RUSH: See, I understand it, but then on the other hand I don't understand. They had a unified convention. Everybody showing up in Tampa was unified, get rid of Obama, let's turn this country around, and now, whoever -- Romney, the party, the RNC -- whoever's doing it started this rules fight that's gonna tear everything apart. Like I say, on the one hand I understand it. On the other hand, it doesn't make any sense. Not that I agree.
I know what they're trying to do, folks. And if you're just joining us, I don't have time to replay or redo the whole first half hour of the program. Essentially, the establishment Republicans, the RNC, the GOP, the Romney campaign, want to change the rules of delegate selection. They want the presidential nominee in future years to be able to choose the actual delegates to the convention so that he owns them, so they do what he wants. And what it really is is an effort to eliminate grassroots people from the Republican convention. That's really what this is all about. What that means is that the party has decided it doesn't want to have to put up with a bunch of conservatives showing up, affecting the platform and all the other things that happen at the convention, including influencing the party.

I believe the same. I also believe we are cowards to cooperate further with this election but for down ticket. They do not want our vote, and must believe they don’t need our vote.
Romney never bothered to even court our vote from the get-go, and now that the nomination is done, he moves to the Left where he is at home.
We are to be replaced with the liberal voters.
It is laughably pathetic to hear this crap about “holding their feet to the fire”, AFTER the election, “changing out the liberal Republicans”, all this, after conservatives just got beaten and raped, used as pawns to bring the Party into line with the socialists at the top.
We sure showed ‘em today. This is all I hear in my head.
STEP 1, 2, 3. HONOR GOD, BELIEVE and TRUST ONLY HIM!
“They are truly power hungry demons. The gop/e do not care for Americans or America... they only care about their own power and wealth”
Agreed....I am disgusted at this power grab. Revolting. Interestingly, Andrea Moncrief (I think that’s her name), the liberal-turned-conservative, in an interview with Ginnie Thomas, said that the Republican party has deliberately infiltrated by the Left as a part of their long-time effort to turn the country into a socialist utopia. I am beginning to think she is absolutely right...the GOP has a death wish. I hate Bohner. I am seriously thinking of registering as an Independent.
Why the hell did Fox bring Juan and Beckel to the coverage of the convention? Like Trump said last night...forget about political correctness; these two should be sent packing NOW.
You maybe needed new batteries for your hearing aid.
I do not believe the elite want to win this election either. They simply seem to want to destroy conservatives. They behave like communist operatives.
I’m getting old and having trouble breathing. Never smoked a day in my life but...
What happened today in Tampa pretty well puts an end to any hopes I might have had for a peaceful return to a constitutional republic. I believe it was John Kennedy who said that “When peaceful revolution becomes impossible, violent revolution becomes inevitable.” I am no longer represented by anyone in either State of Federal office. I am required to pay taxes to support both those entities but I can’t influence what my money is spent on. Does that sound like “government of the people, by the people and for the people” to you? Thought not.
Well, it doesnt make any difference to me I wasnt going tovote for the S.O.B. anyway. Romney/Obama, Obamney, Robama, whatever. You cant tell em apart in a dark room. This is just another reason to vote for the person (not neccesarily the candidate) you feel is best qualified for the job.
Whichever candidate wins the Presidency, we Americans are going to lose. Voting for either of them is tacit approval of whatever they do. Theyll be doing it but you will have enabled and approved it with your vote.
Enjoy the descent into Socialism. Youve earned it!
Vote Sarah Palin. Your vote may not count for her but at least it wont count against you!
I came to the same conclusion.
Well, as I have been saying to anyone who would listen (and they are very few) - we better be thinking past November, because Obama is going nowhere - and this whole election was a charade and illusion from the beginning.
The Ruling Class National Socialists are now in permanent power. What they will do now is eliminate those they determined are enemies.
Yellow crosses may not be much of a stretch if history repeats.

I am with you Rita.

Hoekstra is one of 'THEM'...But yet, he won the primary...I'm giving up trying to figure it out...
Rule #2 is that you never, ever, cross your heart and hope to die NEVER let a Democrat or a RINO get a seat on your state committee!
If you want to run a revolution you start at the counties and the state, or like that little bunch of lawyers in DC, actually round up someone to run on the Democrat ticket every time they end up failing to run someone in some available slot. They're running a guy for Governor, as a Democrat, to beat out former Governor King. The Republicans thought they couldn't beat King. Now these guys are doing what the Republicans up there never thought could happen.
LLS
I agree with you completely.

abc had shelia jackson lee and diane sawyer... we live with a communsit propaganda machine that controls America.

On most issues, Hoekstra is well to the right of Romney.
