BAIER: Charles, we are just getting word from the Associated Press that President Obama personally intervened to change the Democratic platform language on Jerusalem and God. That is crossing the AP wire. So, obviously, it was important for the Obama campaign to deal with this.

KRAUTHAMMER: Well, if he intervened to have it reinstated, how did he allow his platform to omit it? And I would add, all that was reinstated is the language on Jerusalem. They did not restate language isolating Hamas, about no return to the '67 lines. And the Right of Return. All of that is left out of the platform. Quite troubling for pro-Israel community.

LOL, waitaminute!

How does Obama get credit for reinserting God and Jerusalem back into the platform without it being obvious it was taken out? If he claims no knowledge of something as important as this he simply looks even worse as a leader.

There is absolutely no upside for this debacle, especially since the video of the Convention and the boos for God and Israel are obvious.

America is still overwhelmingly a Christian Nation.

“...It went bad because of the base that Obama has brought to the Democrat Convention....”

Hey brother Boots...

This was the moment when the facade fell off, and, in Mooch’s own words, they revealed who they really are.

Let’s hope people were paying attention.

I laughed my ass off when I heard this brought up at the convention...my first thought was “How STUPID are these people to do this in front of cameras, at the convention?”

Then I realized...”Hey...they’re stupid enough to believe their own bullsh*t, so they’re capable of anything.” And it made sense.

Yeah; C.K. said something like, “Words don’t walk off a page.”

Boy, did this ever backfire on Hussein.

“What a disastrous piece Of footage that vote was.”

Yes; definitely. Only problem is that the MSM isn’t playing it at all (per Rush). Only Fox viewers know what truly happened, i.e., the majority of democrats booed God three times. (Hmmm... sounds familiar. Seems I recall someone else denying God three times a couple thousand years ago.)

You can watch the Democratic process in action in this clip, in which Mayor Villaraigosa flunks a hearing test in order to cram God (and Israel) back into the platform against the loudly expressed wishes of the Democrat base.

Pssst, Lucy! Over here! How does Obama get credit for reinserting God and Jerusalem back into the platform without it being obvious it was taken out?
0bama is the messiah. Of something, anyway. Please note the small "m." We had pictures and magazine stories.

Hey buddy..good to hear from you as always...

As far as people believing them, it’s really not so surprising when you think of the fact that they have entire universities, colleges, media outlets, etc., from top down to local level, pumping out bullsh*t 24-7-365.

Most people get their “news” and opinions from carefully-crafted, “tested and approved” 30 second soundbites - and that’s exactly what is intended

God forbid anyone think too deeply for a moment on an issue like, say, abortion; “So..killing your unborn CHILD is a choice and that’s OK,..but somehow executing a convicted psychopath who murdered a family is morally reprehensible?”

No, ya have to hand it to the other side. They played their little subversive parts masterfully.

If our side would have stayed awake and paid attention, we could have crushed them, but we were too busy working and making a living, raising families, helping folks, defending the country from the friends of the other side, etc., - you know, doing the things that CITIZENS do - instead of playing subversive revolutionaries.

SO it’s really not that big a surprise to me when folks believe these asswipes. Hell, half of my parish - church-going Catholics - voted for this fool, KNOWING he was on the baby killer side - and the priests on Sunday said nothing - NOTHING - to inform and educate the people at Mass about how they should vote.

We’ve been undermined, brother. It’s that simple. The real question is, can we take it back and start dismantling their little freakshow Utopia in time to retain some resemblance of America...
