‘A Lot of Ado About Nothing’: Villaraigosa Defends ‘God’ Vote at the DNC

Antonio Villaraigosa: Not One Person Objected to God, Jerusalem Language in DNC Platform

Democratic National Convention Chair Antonio Villaraigosa is claiming that there was no controversy surrounding reinstating God and Jerusalem language into the 2012 Democratic platform.

According to Democrats all references to God– and a statement affirming a commitment to Jerusalem as the capital of Israel– were left out by mistake. To revise the platform, two-thirds of the delegates would have to be in favor.

At the convention, Villaraigosa was forced to ask the delegates three times whether they wanted to reinstate the language, presumably because he could not hear which group was shouting louder.

However, the L.A. Times relates:

“It was a lot of ado about nothing,” [Mayor Villaraigosa] said Friday. Villaraigosa said that when reporters told him after the vote that they did not clearly hear two-thirds support, he responded, “That’s nice to know. I was the chairman and I did, and that was the prerogative of the chair.”

Villaraigosa noted that any delegate who objected to the process could have made a formal challenge within 10 minutes of the vote.

“Not one person objected. It’s more a media concern than a delegate concern. I can tell you this — the president of the United States said, ‘Wow.’ The president said, ‘You showed why you were speaker of the California Assembly,’” Villaraigosa said. “The president, the vice president, Mrs. Obama, all of them acknowledged the decisive way I handled that.” [Emphasis added]

Here is video of the vote, via Buzzfeed, where it seems there was a bit more controversy than Villaraigosa indicates:

The contentious vote on the floor of the Democratic National Convention has been widely seen as an embarrassment for Democrats, particularly due to the nature of the controversy.

Allen West (R-Fl.) released a scathing campaign ad without delay, stating: “three times they said no to God.”

Democratic strategist Paul Begala agrees in the video that it was “embarrassing” and stupid,” while commenters are noting that the marginalization of dissenters is also troubling.

A Huffington Post commenter wrote: “We preach democracy to the world and then in front of the world the Democrats hold a sham vote with a sham outcome…”

  I think it’s laudable that Republicans used the word “God” in their platform. Saying the word “God” seems to prove to many here that Republicans are working God’s works here on earth. Interestingly, not all Christians believe that. For example I give you the “Nuns on a Bus.” http://www.washingtonpost.com/national/on-faith/sister-simone-campbell-nun-from-the-bus-calls-gop-budget-immoral/2012/09/06/d815e19c-f867-11e1-a93b-7185e3f88849_story.html
  
  A spokesman of that group said, ““Paul Ryan claims this budget reflects the principles of our shared faith,” Campbell said, as she took direct aim at Mitt Romney’s running mate, who has often cited his Catholic faith as the underpinning of his fiscal policies. “But the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops stated that the Ryan budget failed a basic moral test, because it would harm families living in poverty,”
  
  So, despite using the word “God” in the platform, some Christians think that the Republican platform actually removes God from any of the declared policies.
  
  I know many of you agree with the AM radio pundits who say any Christian who believes the United States should act collectively on Christian principals is the spawn of the Devil, and that these Nuns on a Bus are pawns of the Evil One because they think that Americans should take care of their own and support the “poorest among us.”
  
  Pretty cool though that Republicans use the word “God” a lot.

  Villaraigosa is delusional at best. Just when you think the debacle is over, he lies again!
  
  @JZS:
  
  We are all God’s children, whether you believe it or not. And the foundation of The United States of America is and always had been a belief in God. You could like read the constitution, declaration of independence, bill of rights, the other amendments, or even the biographies of the founders. It is 100% objectively verifiable.
  
  Republicans have strayed too far from the constitution, but dems want the distance to increase further. Owebama and his ilk are ruining this country as fast as possible. Fact. They mostly succeed because the least politically savvy have flocked to Owebama. He is that good of a performer and liar. The proof is in the pudding.

  DarkJello, I’m casting my lot with the guys who are trying to help the poor rather than support the rich at the expense of the poor. Those are the guys I’m voting for based on my interpretation of the Bible.
  
  And by the way I’m not poor, and am quite willing to pay more in taxes to support other Americans. As an American patriot I believe that we Americans should care of our own. I also don’t believe it contradicts the teachings of Christ for Americans, as Americans, to help the poor.

  From what I read in the Bible, the poor Jesus helped were those who wanted to hear His Words in order to believe, know, and follow Him. No one is saved by works. Salvation comes by faith in God. This faith comes by hearing and hearing by the Word of God. Some were poor economically, some were not. But they were all poor in spirit. Those whom He fed were those whose hearts yearned for HIm.
  As He said, man does not live on bread alone, but from every Word that proceeds from the mouth of God.
  
  The liberals, Democrats in particular, invoke the Name of Jesus in order to promote socialism while in reality they have become the largest anti-Christ organization in the USA, when along with the ACLU, have fought against the Word of God, Jesus, in all sectors of America. Their disdain for the Gospel, the good news of Jesus, has reached the point where the liberals have ignored and even rewritten history. In other words they not only reject Jesus but they also keep others from knowing Him. Of this type Jesus said, they would be better off if they had never been born. When judged they will say, look at all we have done in your Name, and Jesus will answer, get away from Me, I never knew you.
  Then the second death. Eternal separation from God and punishment, because they rejected the Redeemer and His redemption.

  First I think Christian conservatives want to help the poor by their own free will, not by being forced into it by the gov’t. Charitable giving actually rises when not forced by other means. Second, the gov’t does an absolutely horrible job of providing for the poor. The amount of waste is staggering (I’m not talking fraud). With over a dozen programs to help fight poverty, enough money is allotted that could provide $20K cash for every person living in poverty. For a family of 3, that would be $60K. Yet they are receiving only a fraction of that in real terms. There’s plenty of gov’t money going to help the poor. The problem is managing the programs and how that help is structured are failing. I want to give to a charity that I can evaluate how they are providing assistance and how effective their programs are. And if they are doing a terrible job, I find a better charity. When the gov’t takes my taxes for the programs it wants, it has a “monopoly charity” and I have no choice in how to help the poor. You no doubt make many choice based on efficiency. I doubt you drive a gas guzzler. You probably insulate your home, etc. Why? You want the efficiency. I want the same from our gov’t programs. And if they’re not efficient, don’t just throw more money their direction and declare everything is fine. Fix what’s wrong.

We all heard the slightly over 50% vote to not put God and Israel on the platform. The best part was the one good speech by Bill Clinton. He did his duty. He simultaneously paved the way for Hillary’s future yet barely concealed the finest over-kill sarcasm of Obama ever heard. He is a masterful speaker. Nothing like the transparent phony insincere vote for God.

It was a bald faced lie that God was “accidently” left off the platform, and another bald faced lie that two thirds supported putting God back it. I heard the vote, and it was even if anything. And when they didn’t support Jerusalem as the capital of Israel and then put it back it was just pandering to the Jewish vote. It has got to where I can tell when democrats are lying. I can see their lips moving. Gives it away every time.

Sure they did, that’s where the order came from, more likely from Valerie Jarrett. They saw that a majority of people had a problem with removing God and Jerusalem from the platform, so they needed to put back ASAP, no matter what, before more damage was done.
The whack-jobs at the convention weren’t bright enough to see that they were showing their true colors. The DNC needs to keep up the charade for a couple of months longer.

The vote to change the platform was little more than pandering to the ‘pseudo’ Christian members of the Dem party and for appearances sake, since they got caught by a CBN reporter who first noticed the language missing from the platform.

It is still just for appearance sake since they DID NOT reinsert the language about Israel from the 2008 platform.

DNC Platform Still Guts Pro-Israel Language

Despite yesterday’s chaos on the floor of the Democratic National Convention in an attempt to restore Jerusalem and God to the Democratic Party 2012 platform, full pro-Israel language from the 2008 platform has not been and will not be restored. The current Democratic platform regarding Israel had a couple sentences restored yesterday:

Jerusalem is and will remain the capital of Israel. The parties have agreed that Jerusalem is a matter for final status negotiations. It should remain an undivided city accessible to people of all faiths.

But the full language of the 2008 platform is still gone:…..continued……

  But the full language of the 2008 platform is still gone:
  
  The United States and its Quartet partners should continue to isolate Hamas until it renounces terrorism, recognizes Israel’s right to exist, and abides by past agreements. Sustained American leadership for peace and security will require patient efforts and the personal commitment of the President of the United States. The creation of a Palestinian state through final status negotiations, together with an international compensation mechanism, should resolve the issue of Palestinian refugees by allowing them to settle there, rather than in Israel. All understand that it is unrealistic to expect the outcome of final status negotiations to be a full and complete return to the armistice lines of 1949.

  “If God didn’t bless the Democrats, then why is a Democrat President.” (Are you going to say the same thing about the Republicans – or when evil kings were put in charge of countries? God does ALLOW leaders to take positions, but that doesn’t necessarily mean one group over another is “blessed” because they have a particular leader. In fact, many people groups have suffered greatly under various “leaderships” (dictatorships!) ). God’s original plan for Israel was NOT kings, but to be led by priests and judges. The people wanted kings (as other countries had) so God let them have what they wanted. And as it turned out, most of the kings turned out to be EVIL.

  to answer your question of Why is a Dem president, the answer is satin himself. On the computer you typed this on under start, all programs,Accessories,entertainment, sound recorder. If you have a mic hooked up or a built in mic, go ahead and make the pround statement you made 3.5 yrs ago, Yes we can. do it 3 times then reverse the playback, and listen to why obumer won.
