I just finished listening to steele guest host for Bill Bennett again on Morning in America. He demanded that republicans quit calling the President "obama" or worse... that the party will NOT do the same thing that the dims did to Bush... that he is OUR President and that repubics will support him 100% when he is right (name one thing he has done that is "right") and will oppose him when he is wrong but that we will always show him respect... that he is OUR President. He stated that we will not oppose him for "political" reasons.

He then stated that an example of the new direction in which he will take the party will be to promote alternatives that will be positive and help "working" (a socialist buzz word) American families... then he used raising the minimum wage from $3.38 per hour to $7.50 an hour and said, “This is how we can help the American people and show America that republicans can do”.

1)steele does not represent me or my Conservatism

2)hussein is not and shall never be MY President

3)Raising the minimum wage is anti-Capitalist, anti-Free Market, socialist lite and can in no way be spun as being a Conservative position.

4) He and rudy were talking about the new dim Congresswoman from NY that is an NRA pro gun congresscritter... rudy mistakenly called her “Pro Gun Control” by mistake or Freudian slip and steele just said “yes” in response. Not a Conservative thought between the two of them!

My point is... the only hope we have lies in Congress and the Senate with elected republicans... the party is for all intents and purposes... stalled in Purgatory for the foreseeable future.

We are going into battle with the equivalent leadership of weasley clark. Pray hard.

I kind of liked Steele, but I WAS worried about him.

I think (and I may be wrong) that he’s a conservative, but I was afraid that the guy would just be too “nice” to really take on the Democrat crazy-machine.

I despise everything Hillary Clinton or Nancy Pelosi stand for, but you can say this about them: if you give them shivs and tell them they can have a chance to take out an opponent in the shower, you can bet they’d start stabbing away.

Conservatives need to fight like their survival depends on it. The time for being “nice” is LOOOOONNNNNGGGG past over.
