Villaraigosa Defends Decision on Controversial God, Jerusalem DNC Vote

Did two-thirds actually approve platform change?

MSNBC host Joe Scarborough confronted convention chairman Antonio Villaraigosa on Thursday over the controversial voice vote that saw "God" and "Jerusalem" put back into the Democratic Party platform.

"The dude needs a hearing aid. That was not two-thirds of the people. They set you up, man. They set you up," Scarborough said half-jokingly to Villaraigosa on "Morning Joe."

The most troubling thing about politicians lying is not the lie, but that they think they can get away with it. Truth is no longer valued. Fortunately the new media has made verification of lies a simple matter, but does anyone care? See the scientific proof that this politician is lying: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RCUNzAELnU0 After learning the truth, please don't excuse this politician by saying he didn't know the truth - the reason he did the vote three times with the SAME RESULT shows that he knew there was not a two-thirds majority.
