What a ridiculous thing to do by the RNC and Romney. Glad to see Texas is the one standing up for the right thing.

It's not remotely surprising that this candidate, and the people that own him, couldn't care less about the electoral process or the Constitution in general. He's even worse than Obama folks.

What? How dare you question him!
I'm not fan of Mitt but that's not the first asinine comment he's ever made.

I guess you guys missed this part.
While opposition to the rules began with Ron Paul supporters, it has spread to the entire Texas delegation and significant portions of those from South Carolina, Colorado, Virginia and Louisiana too. Mitt Romney's campaign lawyer Ben Ginsberg proposed the rule last week, but even some Romney supporters are staunchly opposed to the changes. Indiana delegate and Romney supporter James Bopp wrote in an email to RNC members that it's "the biggest power grab in the history of the Republican Party." Fredricks, a Romney supporter, says only 30 people of the more than 300 Texan alternates and delegates support Ron Paul, yet the delegation is "united" in its opposition to the rule.
I do find it funny JerBear thinks he is WORSE then Obama.

Are the moderators ever going to do something about the same 2-3 posters who routinely attack anyone they want and never show anything that even slightly resembles Christ like behavior?

I'm not sure where anybody was attacking you? They found your position funny...what's wrong with that?
Perhaps your comments regarding someone owning Romney could fit under your own criteria of resembling someone who honored Christ with their behavior?

Dude. People like you make personal attacks on me all the time, and I never report you for it. Be a man and quit whining, or just say nothing.
Secondly, I thought you had me on ignore?

Can you quote someone who has you on ignore?
Despite what NotThePope thinks, im not sure who owns whom. I'm a Mitt homer but like those I highlighted in the article I think this is was and could be a horrible move. There was a sense of unity going into this convention. People like the heretic JBock who may have wanted Ron Paul, but agree that defeating Obama is more important, lined up behind Romney. All they wanted was to be heard. Big deal, let them be heard, move on in the process, get Romney nominated and defeat Obama. The only good that can come out of this is that the measure is soundly defeated. That will give those a sense of victory and the Establishment a punch in the nose.

NAJ sounds like a liberal to me: Entitled to an opinion, even if it can't be defended rationally, and who is anyone to challenge the position held.

I've been heavily drugged the last few days after having a major flareup with my spinal injury. But, continue to be a classless blowhard on the internet. It's a shame that's allowed here.

Well add TD to the Ignore list. Pretty soon the drugs won't be the reason he is talking to himself! Heck posting while 'medicated' is what makes FF fun!

Wake me up when I make a "forced busing" comment about a predominantly black churches attending an Obama event. At some point, there have to be some standards.
And seriously, we're going to use the "they've been here longer so it's okay to constantly make inappropriate comments" card?

I think your version of inappropriate is dramatically more sensitive than most on this board.
