And on this thread and others certain folks have found comfort in trashing Steele. So I put it to you and Jim, is Michael Steele, a black pro-life conservative, fair game for bomb-throwers here when all that has been presented is at stake?
A little clarity would do wonders.
They don't want to accept that whatever 'bombs' were dropped, they were dropped by Michael Steele against the GOP and the President. I didn't come up with the term "Scarlet R", that was Michael Steele.
That some FReepers want to ignore the FACTS behind what Steele did, is their problem. But when they seek to silence what others, (primarily me and Sinkspur) are attempting to point out in their illogic, they do the GOP no favors.
What good is a majority, if half your members vote with the other side? Michael Steele gave many Conservatives reason to believe that he is of the Lincoln Chaffee style of Republicans, and then came up with THREE SEPERATE EXCUSES to deal with the fallout.
I think you moderators know what kind of Conservative I am, and those who don't, I guess will say what they will, but when a GOP candidate for office slams his own party hoping to gain favorable treatment from the media (ala-John McCain) and then insults our intelligence with his multiple attempts at damage control, while never accepting responsibility for his own deeds, are we to be silent?
That some here cant take a bit of reality without losing their bearings ought to be their own problem. I intend to call them as I see them. I have confidence that opposing points of view wont be silenced if offered in a respectable way. To FReepers who cant handle the truth when it hurts, SACK UP. Michael Steele knows what he did, and so does the GOP. I said nothing about Michael Steele that has not been factually reported, and not just by that creep Milbank.
Who needs clarity, when reality is right there in your face?
