Allen West hits Democratic opponent with DNC vote against God

Yesterday, someone on my Twitter feed described the scene unfolding at the Democratic National Convention as “bad optics.”  I suppose that’s one way to look at delegates fighting to keep God out of their party’s official platform. But for Rep. Allen West, there’s a bigger lesson to be learned from the exercise and he’s using it to ask voters in his Florida district a key question: Are these your values?

Will it be an effective ad? Time will tell, but you have to hand it to West for being the first out of the gate with this one:

    They intend to covered this up, but that intention was that nobody notice until the convention was over. Beside when, people said the Democrat party now belong to communist is not surprise me anymore. Who remember when Juan Williams lost his job because he said in FOX NEWS that he was afraid the fly in airplane with people from Middle East .

    According to reports the teleprompter had already been programmed for the ‘yea’ confirmation even before they started the voting process. And the voice vote was so obvious that it was at best 50/50, but the reaction of the crowd was the most interesting. RNC don’t waste the opportunity.

    Mr West is really on top of his campaign to be able to turn this gaff by the democrats yesterday into a political ad today.

    That man was given orders to do a vote and orders to make sure the “yes” change it won. The “no(s) won. They were louder. They wanted to look like they were being “democratic,” but knew they had better get a change. They are in NC, for the love of Pete. Those bused in and did not want want a change to include God, won with the “no(s,) but they changed it to yes because they are in NC. They know North Carolina does not go in for this mess the Democrats are trying to get over on the public when it comes to leaving God out of the equation. That just proved to me that there were more people who were bused who were in attendence inside the convention than those from NC. They are trying to impress and get votes from NC, but they may have already blown it.
    They paid millions to have people bused into that place so it would look full.
