The Republicans' 2012 Teleprompted Convention Part 2

Weep for America. Background: GOP embeds are afraid of the people. Obviously, it follows that what they want is not what the people want. So they are trying to wrap it up with a bow for themselves this way: change the GOP rules so that an unelected rules committee - or the presumptive nominee?/! - can refuse to permit DULY ELECTED delegates, voted for by the citizens of their respective states, from exercising their duties to vote for the next leader of the Republican Party. Here, at the two minute mark, a voice vote to adopt the new rules is taken. To my ears it's too close to call; a tie between the ayes and the nays. the teleprompter is pre-scripted! and is read by the announcer: the ayes have it, over loud shouts from the floor of 'point of order!'
