  • I was a delegate to the State Republican Convention & we protested day & night that they wouldn't even let Ron Paul speak for 1 minute -- the Corporations were in control.

    We must not allow the Corporations to destroy Medina as they destroyed Ron Paul.

  • @DillonX Well I was there too and I didn't see any corporations pulling shenanigans.  If anything it was the established GOP.

    Thanks for the comment though. It made me rewatch the video and reminisce of the good times when there was hope.

  • After they refused to let Ron Paul speak for even a minute - did you go to the Hilton Hotel where many of us gathered to hear his speech?

  • @DillonX

    Debra Medina is doing an excellent job of destroying herself. Or perhaps, if I am wrong on that, she can offer an explanation as to why the Debra Medina Facebook page featherbeds 9/11 Truthers but if one is a Ronald Regan or Senator Barry Goldwater conservative and one argues against the Truther garbage on the Debra Medina Facebook page, it would be nothing unusual to be threatened with being shot dead.

  • Well lets see this went from failure to recognize a precinct chair to speak, to including illegal voters, what next did we also include as delegates men from outer space get a life move on. Whatever problem existed this time i can guarantee you will not happen again. And if the rumor is true about Cahill running for county chair i will gladly run against her. I will not be victimized for something I had no control over. I don't care how much money Ron Paul spends in Nueces County!

  • I have to leave this comment with a disclaimer that I have not independently verified this claim, but it was brought to my attention that in addition to people that were not even registered voters some which were elected to state had voted Dem. in the primary.

  • What I have been trying to understand is why the attempt to remove the entire Nueces Delegation over the mistake of one person. That person was removed from delegation but it seems that ( to the Paulistas) that was not enough. Do we throw the baby out with the bathwater I should hope not. While it is nice to get attention, I for one do not want to be known as a violator of rules.

  • So adding people who voted in the Democratic primary and those not registered to vote is ok?

  • The fact that you blindly trust your reps says a lot. Knowing McCain is not a true conservative Republican, an still voting for him is selling out on your own beliefs, your party, and your country. Something McCain lacks, but Ron Paul and his supporters will always have ~ integrity and consistency.

  • Obviously you didn't attend committee meetings. This was not discussed!! The minority report from the temp committee wasn't allowed to be presented on trumped-up rules never applied before. Diaz told the perm committee THE ONLY THING they could do was to adopt the temp role as perm. There was NO discussion allowed from the committee & certainly no acknowledgment of the gallery. This should have been handled properly instead of swept under the rug. Even if it made you late for dinner.

  • P.S. I happen to think "Houston, WE have a Problem!" was a very good Opening for a speech. Just look at RowdyBull, whether he is from Houston or not, he obviously has a problem. That problem is the willingness to accept the facts that the rules where violated. You may be able to justify that, but I myself can not. The "I'm better than you are" speech always comes back to haunt you. Keep that in mind at all times!

  • I'd like to see just what "RowdyBull's" agenda is. Did he call a point of order? Does he know the chain of command when it comes to the Texas Election code and Robert's Rules of Order? What exactly are his credentials? Does he even have any? I would like to see his alleged "credentials" on paper. Does he realize that if the "Ron Paulie's" pull out of the Republican Party, that Obama WILL win the Presidency? Maybe he should be KISSING OUR ASS!!! Instead of being a "ROWDYBULLY!" Kiss My ASS!

  • Rowdy just wanted to party and drink beer like most of the folks who attended. I saw him look at his watch every time somebody stood up for their rights. Word of advice for the next convention Rowdy, bring a keg. You will need lots of suds to stave off the delirium tremens you will experience when we show up again. ;)

  • If you didn't want to have any discussion and just wanted to rubber stamp the committees 100%, frankly, I don't know why you even went. Speaking up according to the rules is not disruptive. Sure, many didn't understand robert's rules the best, but w/ 2 years to study procedure next time will go a lot smoother in that respect.

  • Debra is someone to truly follow!

  • Most likely, you would rather keep your head

    in the sand.

    The Republicans will lose BIG TIME in Novemember.

    Not only RP people will not vote for McCain,

    but a substantial number of OTHER REAL Republicans will not either.

    Perhaps when the party has HIT BOTTOM they

    will begin to wake up just a little bit.
