As stomach-turning their hyperpatriotism, gratuitous flagwaving, and discussion of their exalted place in God's eyes is, they did manage to pull one thing off -- that little blind girl singing the anthem was an actual inspiring thing.

^^He mentions Western Europe...Eastern Europe....The US...but only Christians. I know you take everything literally Corsi, but surely you're not going to suggest he wasn't being racist. Especially since he's well known as one of the most racist members of the house...

And just for fun, Asians invented gunpowder. How badly does Steve King and the Republicans need Asians to justify their existence? They are nothing without guns of course

Not worth it to argue with you, the contributions made to the current world order by Christianity is more Peter12's schtick. I'll just say that don't know if he intended to be racist, but the statement wasn't.

I have no doubt the statement was meant to be racist, in as much as he meant white Anglo Saxon Protestants and no one else.
But he's wrong, there absolutely nothing we have that isn't based on Arabic and Indian invention of math, specifically algorithms, no Muslims no computers!

All this patriotism, religious zeal, fear mongering, xenophobia, and propaganda makes for a pretty scary show.

This is where in applying the context of who Steve King is, it leaves little doubt what he's saying. But he's actually a Cruz supporter originally, reminding us more than anything that yeah Trump sucks, but holy crap is Cruz much worse.

Yeah, from what I know the Muslims brought Christianity out of the dark ages and as was shown in the documentary "Guns, Germs, and Steel", environment played a big part.

That Benghazi mother clip will be one of the takeaways from this convention. I suspect it will linger on for a while.
A lot of hatred out there for the status quo in these speeches.

Somehow, some way, against all logic and reason, Donald Trump will be elected President, and these lunatics will be in charge of the United States for at least four years.

I thought public servants like cops were supposed to be politically neutral? What's with this cop criticizing a States attorney and speaking at the RNC? Weird.

Sheriffs are elected in America. It's a very political job.

I knew they were elected. I didn't know they were so overtly political. This guy is probably not respresentative of joe average Sherrif, but still.
