The idiot in the audience screamed “War Criminal!”
Dick Cheney strolled on stage to cheers and the inspirational tune of Tina Turner’s “Simply the Best” and just as he began to present the “Defender Of The Constitution” award to Donald Rumsfeld the chants of “USA! USA!” died down, a voice screaming “War criminal!” could be heard. And then, as Cheney continued to talk up his former colleague, a shouting match began between supporters of Ron Paul and the rest of the convention hall.
The Paul supporters eventually walked out in the middle of Rumsfeld’s speech as way of protest.
Wild Thing’s comment……
CPAC has created this.
Sarah declined for the second time not to go to CPAC and I am glad. Sarah was right about her last two years of “scheduling conflicts” is what she said as an excuse to say no to them. It is really infested now with not so conservative people and agenda’s. She is proving to be pretty savvy about a lot of things like this.
I have been hearing from several friends at CPAC that they are completely disgusted with it this year. Some great speakers and guests like Cheney and Herman Cain, but it the packs of roving paultards getting in people’s faces are causing folks just to leave.
Ron Paul’s vision of America and the world, in particular his isolationism, anti-semitism and anti- Israel positions are not shared by most Americans and certainly not shared by most Conservatives.
Time to end this trashing and remember who the real enemy is.
NOBAMA 2012
Uncle Vader looks grrreat! Love the FACT he isn’t PC, eh? GOD BLESS DICK CHENEY and LYNNE!
Boy is this ever going to be played up in the Liberal Media.
Once again the Republicans, or at least some of them are shooting themselves in the foot.
Take this along with the Republican National Committee’s continued refusal to recognize and support any non-Rino candidate, and you have the ultimate scenario for divide and conquer.
You can bet that those in the Media, as well as spokesmen for the Democratic party, are going to play this up, big time. And they will continue to do so through the Elections of 2012.
End result? Another Democratic victory, and 4 more years of Barry Sotero.
Come November 2012 there will be three parties, the Tea Party will be the second and Republicans will be running third it will give obama the win but there is only one way to rid thme is to force them to lose. I will no vote for another McCain.
Behavior wise, there is no difference between Ron Paul supporters and liberal democrats. You never see Conservatives try to shout down a speaker like liberals and Paul supporters.
GREAT input thank you all so much.
