Paul delegates seated were chanting "USA" to drown them out, the way they always do. I thought the gentlelady was the victim of bad timing.

Did you see where some delegate threw peanuts at the African American Camerawoman from CNN?

It has been pointed out several times, yet these posts persist. It is unfortunate.

So, one more time; the Paulistas had begun chanting and protesting as the woman approached the stage. In an attempt to drown them out, the other delegates began their USA USA USA chant. It had nothing to do with the speaker!

But even if that is what it is, I felt horrible for that poor woman standing there. She looked crushed.

The video is being reported in may quarters as I stated.

That is now the truth, just like all the misquotes and lies the right wing throws at us.

This is a contact sport.

is more racist than the republican establishment realizes. they've created their own monster.

That's their problem. They need to figure out when to STFU.

said a word..

Look at the other posts in this thread...meme fail-

imho.

In politics, perception is reality. It looked like RNC delegates were shouting down a Puerto Rican at the podium, and that fits into the existing narrative that the RNC doesn't care about minorities, so that's what it is when people see footage of it.

Perception is reality, for better or worse.

It's the same reason the "you didn't build that" MISQUOTE is getting so much play by the Repblicans. It entirely fits in with their narrative about us, so it rings true to them.

Frankly, if they're not giving up their looks-truer-than-it-is nugget (you didn't build that), I don't see why we should have to give up ours.
