Robert's rules, which the RNC is supposedly under. Under the rules of the Republican party, you can only follow Mason's Manual to the extent that it does not conflict with the party bylaws, rules, and Robert's Rules. Any motion under Robert's Rules to reconcile the situation would technically be...
The point where you knew things were going horribly wrong was failing to properly follow the rules on the "without objection, the previous question is ordered" in regards to the seating of delegates (report of the credentials committee, wayyy before the rules vote). Unlike a normal vote...
Either:
1. You are not watching
2. Are blind
The obvious answer is they can change whatever they want, for whatever reason they want, whenever they want. The rules mean absolutely nothing.
"Without objection" :rolleyes:
Apparently in other situations court cases have supported "in writing" as being fixed in words that cannot be altered, where electronic communication is sufficient unless specifically excluded.
It's probably backscatter. For the non-technical person, that means "Bob" sends a thousand emails where the "From" part is falsely stated to be "Alice" (it's just a text field, pretty much any name/email could be put there by anyone). If only 700 email addresses Bob sent to are good, the...

To make sure that when I say Romney is not acceptable as the Republican nominee, no one can come back and say I was not objective and fair in my evaluation.
If we want to build an iron-clad case against him, it needs to be clear that we understand the difference between the role/authority of the President and that of a state governor. The longer quotes you posted above regarding the excise tax only apply to MA law. The statement about the gas tax at...
At the time when he stated that in debate, there were two schools of thought. In one group were people who believed the NDAA provided for the indefinite detention of Americans. In another group were people who believed the last minute amendment that passed (not the one which would have striken...
I wish someone would gather a set of information about just what he's said about the federal government over time (and what it should/shouldn't do). I don't see anyone currently attempting to separate what he supports at a state level from what he supports at a national level, which severely...
