It seemed a bit discourteous of the crowd.

The native born Canadian made no big thing of his native nation's flag being absent, and instead spoke. Meanwhile, as best as I could make it out over the noise, the boorish crowd more than once shouted in unison, "In your rump, in your rump."

I believe that was what they shouted. YouTube it yourself, see what they say.

Reader help on that detail via a comment would be appreciated.

_____________UPDATE_____________
I watched it again. All he seemed to be saying was honor the Constitution, and vote your conscience. Perhaps the suggestion of having a conscience, collectively or individually, got them riled up.

What would John Galt say?

About Ted Cruz? A.Boo.

About Donald Trump? A.Have Ayn write the wife's speech next time.

About Roger Ailes? A.Keep your busy hands and mind away from Dagney Taggert.

About Jason Lewis? A.You have got to be kidding me. Next time, please do not wipe your feet on my name.

With Republicans convening, thinking of anything else shows sound judgment. Bandar on my mind.

First, the 29 pages, reported/analyzed/critiqued. The pages themselves, online.

Churchill's Iron Curtain speech could take only the most minor rewrite, to apply to our good and well behaved allies, the Saudis. Do you suppose the Saudis dictate the Brennan drone stike hit list, the Pakistanis, the Turks, or none of the above and Brennen sits in his office, pen and paper and a scotch, and makes up names?

Back to the convention. Can you imagine Trump/Pence dealing with the Saudi mind? Remember, they got his yacht. Might that relate to his attitude toward Muslim entry past our borders? Thinking he should have gotten a better distress sale price?

If you'd question the great man's motives that way, then, well; Trump U, Jack.

UPDATE: Of equal interest, they bought her foundation. But that's tomorrow's conventioneering.

FURTHER UPDATE: Re Qatar as more of a focus than the Saudi kingdom, Gazprom a geopolitical target; Zero Hedge again, BBC again.

Turkey? Sibel Edmonds has been posting about Gulen fairly frequently over the recent past, but pre-coup. See, e.g., this earlier post, then this, post-coup, and this websearch of the Edmonds Boiling Frogs site. She has books she authored, noted here. Her history as a former government contractor is, to say the least, interesting; this websearch. A websearch re Edmonds and a former intelligence community insider, from earlier times (pictured with a presidential wannabe's mentor).

FURTHER: This Edmonds link-out, to this YouTube video. For stepping outside of the Bandar, Syria, Qatar, Turkey mileau.

FURTHER: A link. This websearch.

FURTHER: Here. First, reflect on it being possible Taiwan is a Scowcroft Group paying client. Then reflect, under TPP would our nation be able to keep its domestic energy production for use here, or would that be a trade violation? Who knows, given the draft text of TPP is being kept secret. Go figure.

Then here. Sandy Berger croaks and Scowcroft group joins mourning. So, this former spook, Berger, what was he up to days and weeks before the untimely end? Re-read the first link in this update, then here, and lo, Madeline Albright pops up. Political bonding among the revolving door transiting folks can be a never-ending eye opener. Like what, zombies, the Phoenix Bird? George Carlin's big club? What would John Galt say, about the ever-interesting revolving door? Likely not what Hillary might say. Foundation-wise.

FURTHER: Indeed, what would Sandy Berger say, if still here to say it?

Pence will prove to be Trump's Palin.

As McCain reached to touch Jesus, so did Trump; each reaching for a Jesus Jockey - one who uses The Lord to advance career goals, climbing on the back of The Lord to be carried as far that way as possible, and if needed, using spurs.

Others, of course, may have differing views of Pence/Palin.

The most significant legislation touching upon Gov. Pence relates to campaign reform. This link.

As a prediction, Trump Inc. will experience buyer's remorse. As did McCain.

And all the while, Michele Bachmann was there as an alternative.

Who knows. Perhaps an inquiry and a turn-down?

As a brief diversion: Will Bachmann be a conventioneer? Or on holiday, possibly, with the Bush family.

Back on track: We may find out whether Gov. Pence has a JEB!-like Terri Schiavo skeleton rattling in his closet; "life" being a declared pro of his. With spurs and ambition.

With Trump's closet full of rattling fiscal skeleton, one has to wonder why he added one more.

UPDATE: Less judgmental, indeed largely neutral, Eric Black of MinnPost presents a ten point analysis "on Trump's Pence pick."
