Is this leading from behind?

It’s definitely bass-ackwards.  No wonder Mayor Villaraigosa was dumbstruck with prog-pocrisy.   Stuck between a rock and the “proverbial” hard-place.    So fast forward 15 hours and lookie what the State department has to say following the party platform debacle:

The State Department today again refused to name the capital of Israel, even after being questioned by the press and even after the Democratic party (President Obama’s party) voted yesterday to add language to its platform stating that Jerusalem is the capital of Israel.

Here’s the remarkable exchange from today’s press briefing, with reporters and press secretary Patrick Ventrell: (more…)

As noted in this somewhat slanted partisan article (below) Al Gore is conspicuously absent from the DNC Convention.   The claim is because of President Obama’s wishy-washy positions on “Green Issues”, but the issue is actually deeper still.

Al Gore’s financial status is dependent on global warming vis-a-vis “Cap n Trade”.  Not only is he a one policy special interest advocate, but he has strategically invested all of his financial efforts into creating the ‘next bubble’ Energy Carbon Trading.

His ire with Obama is not because the President is not a radical environmentalist, which Obama certainly is; the bigger issue is the disappointment on Gores anticipated return on investment being delayed because of weakened economics.

Al Gore and his like-minded Wall Street and Global financiers, have invested heavily on a system of financial gain from a ‘cap n trade’ scheme; similar in construct and origination to the housing loan bond market schemes.   They have been betting for a number of years on some type of trade market being created through the use of energy carbon credits.

….. and even that fawning media narrative is not going to be near enough to help them continue the farce.   The Bloom Is Off The Ruse – The Electorate Is Awake, and the Democrats are circling the drain; with or without making up their mind on “God” and “Jerusalem”.

But to afford the benefit of the doubt to a reader who just clicked into the discussion, here is a general punditry example essentially reflective of the echo-chambering, yet irrelevant, media:

Yeah, I know this (video) is after day #1, but blah, blah, blah, the same water-carrying conversation happened last with the swooning just directed at “Bubba The Savior”. Whatever. Really, his BS is not worth my typing effort to deconstruct. Besides, someone else already did it.

I really do believe that people can see through this farce now.

The reality is there is no Hope and definitely NO CHANGE. Except for the TV ratings which reflect the exact sentiment being described right here. (more…)

The GAO also confirm that the President does not have the right to change the rules about the work requirement, and they require the White House to submit a request to congress for permission prior to anything being allowed to take effect.  Eh, but what’s a little pesky thing called Truth got to do with a great series of lines…

So “The Bubba” lied again, well, I know no real shock n’ all, but he did lie in his speech…. again.

Debbie Wasserman Schultz just stepped into the entire fiasco and made it one hundred times worse !

Yesterday the DNC Chairperson,  Debbie Wasserman Schultz, stated to CNN the reason Jerusalem was no longer recognized as the capital of Israel in the DNC Party Platform was because the platform….

“was simply following what the Obama administration policy is”…

Today, in a bizarre floor vote the platform was rapidly changed by the DNC to return the language of Jerusalem as the capital of Israel back into the platform. When asked why the turnaround Debbie Wasserman Schultz claims:

…”the change was to reflect the Presidents policy on Israel”.

Even the liberal CNN panel was shaking their head recognizing that Debbie Wasserman Schultz was tying herself into pretzel like contortions to deny the obvious. Debbie Wasserman Schultz also proclaims the floor vote was not reflective of discord. (more…)

Update 10:00pm –DNC Chair Debbie Wasserman Schultz and DNC mouthpiece Patrick Gasparad cancel all media appearances while they engage in damage control and coordinate a recovery message.  Reports DNC backroom leaders spinning wildly out of control and off message. 

Update 8:00pm – In typical Democrat manner, the decision to change the platform back was “baked into the cake”.  Regardless of the delegates  votes, the party leadership had decided the risk of exposing their TRUE beliefs was too great.   Here is the proof:  The picture was taken at 6:14 and 09 seconds at the exact moment after the Yea – Nay votes were requested, showing what Villaraigosa was to say next.   There was simply NO OPTION for mayor Villaraigosa to tell the truth or let the delegates actual voice be recorded.  “The cake was baked”. 

Update 6:40pm.  AP reports, CBS confirms, the White House says President Obama made the decision to request change.  Obama personally asked for change: (more…)

The Obama Campaign is saying they are moving the speech due to weather.  However, there is NO risk of bad weather.   They are moving it because they can’t fill the seats.  Period.  And they do not want to be embarassed with thousands of empty seats.

Local weather forecaster says “no chance” of inclement weather, storms or rain

(Via Daily Mail) Democrats have announced that President Barack Obama’s big speech on Thursday night will move from the vast Bank of America stadium to the much-smaller Time Warner indoor arena.

While organisers blamed weather forecasts of lightning, the switch means that Obama has avoided the possibility of having to accept his party’s nomination before a partially-empty stadium. Just hours earlier, officials had been insisting the speech would go ahead in the stadium ‘rain or shine’. (more…)

…. The problem is, there’s audio to prove she is lying.  This is the Chairwoman of the Democrat National Committee.  The Head of the Democrat Party…

FIRE HER NOW !

The back story:   The Washington Examiner ran an article describing an attack by Democrats against Republicans where Debbie Wasserman Schultz said:

…..“We know, and I’ve heard no less than Ambassador Michael Oren say this, that what the Republicans are doing is dangerous for Israel.”….

Which drew an immediate reaction from The Israeli Ambassador Oren who was furious that she would make such an attribution to him.    Ambassador Oren vehemently denied making any such comment and flatly said the statement by Ms Wasserman-Schultz was a complete fabrication.

Consequently, Debbie Wasserman Schultz was questioned about this during a Fox TV interview with Shepard Smith.   She claimed, well, just watch the specific denial below in this video:

But what Debbie did not count on, was the Washington Examiner having the exact audio of her making the exact statement they attributed to her. That exact statement that she denies ever making. (at the :28 second mark) BUSTED: (more…)
