Racist Nuts at Republican Convention
Loading the player ...
Two attendees were ejected from Republican National Convention on Tuesday for throwing nuts at a black CNN camerawoman.
The individuals told her "this is how we feed animals" as they threw the nuts, multiple witness said.
Convention security and police removed the two from the convention centre shortly after the incident.
In a statement, convention officials said the attendees had "exhibited deplorable behaviour".
"Their conduct was inexcusable and unacceptable. This kind of behaviour will not be tolerated."
The incident reportedly occurred shortly after 20:00 local time. The identities of the two ejected was unclear. News broadcaster CNN confirmed the incident but had no additional comment.
The incident happened on Tuesday in the Tampa Bay Times Forum, where delegates officially nominated Mitt Romney as the Republican candidate to face President Barack Obama in the November presidential election.
Former Bush White House press secretary and CNN commentator Ari Fleischer told the BBC: "If it's what has been reported to have been their motive it's reprehensible. They have no place being at this convention."
Among Tuesday's night speakers was Mia Love, who is aiming to become the first black Republican woman to be elected to Congress.----

@cleetusawreetus You completely missed the point/joke. The joke being that anytime this kinda stuff happens, the party blamed claims its some conspiracy/plant that did it. Never will admit they have idiots in their masses.

@Futureman Link? Citation? Anything please? It looks bad when you have no proof. What did the banners say? Did they identify themselves as liberals? How would you know if they didn't? Are you possibly in denial that there are racists in the GOP? Are you one? Is there a chance you are actually full of shit?

@Futureman Do you understand how ridiculous that sounds? Id think the media who clarify if it had been protestors/hecklers. Instead the RNC apologized.

What a thoroughly clever way to distract from politics. It is such a classic technique of propaganda that I am clueless to which side played it.
Kinda like trying to figure out which is worse. Romney or Obama.

So what's the real difference between a democrat and republican?
If you look at the politics of both parties, they are almost identical. Some of the rhetoric is different, but their policies and actions appear almost indistinguishable.
The term "lefty" or "right wing" is bandied about, but think that 99.999% of people who use the term don't understand what it means.
Look at http://www.politicalcompass.org/uselection2012, and it shows that Mitt & Barack are pretty much More..

@jimbo111
The difference is almost all the religious freaks are Republicans and most of their beliefs having anything to do with sex are FUCKED UP among other shit they believe in.
I don't see any Democrats ever thinking about banning porn, but on the other side? Hell yeah.
This is enough for me to NOT vote GOP EVER.

@John_Matrix OMG no porn! Nooooooo.
Do you think they should just rename them the Pro-porn and anti-porn parties, as that is the only real difference?
