    Tweeting the Maine delegate hearing today at 2:30

    There is a hearing today for the Credentials Committee at the Grand Ballroom of the Marriott Waterside Grand Ballroom at 2:30. Brent Tweed the Maine Del chair was flown down yesterday to testify. I am one of two other delegates that are flying in today to participate in the platform committee events that start tonight. Both Mrs Beand and I are going to attend the hearing.

    I will look to Live Tweet what I can on twitter @ md_wallace

    Rightful liberty is unobstructed action according to our will within limits drawn around us by the equal rights of others. I do not add 'within the limits of the law' because law is often but the tyrant's will, and always so when it violates the rights of the individual. - Thomas Jefferson
    I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.

    Yeah, I tweeted for an update, but maybe that was saying he WAS seated ...... so he's not tracking any more?

    dunno.

    The hearing had not finalised before I was due @ assigned committee. No final word on the status of ME del #megop2012

    one of the 'sweet' things from the establishment point of view is I understand as long as you are 'challenged' you can't vote on the committees. So many of our people will be unable to vote, as I understand it.

    So then what about all of the other states delegates we are challenging? If we put in enough challenges, we could shut the whole convention down then

    Wierd, just plain wierd. So they allow our maine people to "act" like delegates while they try to remove them. Just plain wierd.
    Stick with the rules, RNC !

    I was thinking the same thing. But I don't know. I would guess they will uphold the rules they want to as they have been. This hole thing is a big kick in the nads.

    You know At one time I actually thought that if one wanted to he could get involved in politics and make something happen. I have now come to find out that is a lie. You will be shut out.

    Don't you think that is kind of defeatist?

    Several of our guys have won their primaries and will likely win their elections.

    The corruption in the parties is there because too many people were apathetic for too long. So, we have to push Boss Tweed out and it is going to take our involvement to do that. You can't expect decades of corruption to be overturned immediately.

    So, what happened?

    Can't people who know this important information post this important information?

    Do we just like to bitch, but not care about the outcome?

    Check my Twitter feed,

    A Deal has been offered involving multiple state delegations. It was declined. They (the principled delegations) are all due to be ground into dust by the 'insult' to the Type A's and Sociopaths that are putting Romney into their pocket.

    These people handling this at the RNC have no business having kids because of the amount of disingenuous sh*t that would be mirrored back at them would doubtlessly send them into equal fits of rage.

    I take it the deal would have not given Ron enough states to be nominated from the floor.

    I don't get the last half of that about 'due to be ground into the dust by the insult'....

    what is your twitter feed?
