Kudos to you Michael. Now stand tall and proud. Be strong and push conservative principles. Do not falter and do not shrink from the fight against Obama and the Democrats.
Like it? ;^)
Has Steele been asked lately about his stance on Affirmative Action?
He has good character.
Now, Mike: GO GET THOSE Liberal DEMOCRATS! Fight them EVERY DAY! STAND TALL! You are not alone: Call upon good conservatives to fight with you. Do not shy away! TELL THE TRUTH.
No Republican gets majority of votes for chairman

If she did the college tour in the primary then that was about it, because I followed her blog almost daily (during the election) and other than time spent promoting her book she hardly left her father's side.
Steele asked the question, “What do you need an assault weapon for if you”re going hunting”? Do a Google search or go to http://www.ontheissues.org. If you look you can listen to the interview in which he shows his complete ignorance of the purpose of the second amendment.
Steele is NOT a conservative. He supports Roe v. Wade, affirmative action, and is against the death penalty. He was picked because he was black in what will be a futile effort to attract black voters.
For those of you who don’t understand the 2nd amendment, which is apparently quite a few: Before a standing army can rule, the people must be disarmed; as they are in almost every kingdom in Europe. The supreme power in America cannot enforce unjust laws by the sword; because the whole body of the people are armed, and constitute a force superior to any band of regular troops that can be, on any pretence, raised in the United States. A military force, at the command of Congress, can execute no laws, but such as the people perceive to be just and constitutional; for they will possess the power, and jealousy will instantly inspire the inclination, to resist the execution of a law which appears to them unjust and oppressive.
—Noah Webster, An Examination of the Leading Principles of the Federal Constitution (Philadelphia 1787).
He lost me with his gun stance. I am so sick of hearing people talk about hunting and the SECOND AMENDMENT. The SECOND AMENDMENT is NOT about hunting. PERIOD !
I wish I could be excited about this selection, but I’m afraid I’m not. Steele was near the bottom in my preference (only Duncan and Anuzis were openly worse in sheer incompetence). His closeness to the RINO problem is readily apparent, his association with Christie Whitman (one of the singlemost disastrous and destructive RINO Governors of the past 30 years) and his endorsement of ex-Congressman Gilchrest (who is now a Democrat by all accounts) over Andy Harris (when Bob Ehrlich, who was once considered more lib than Steele, endorsed Harris) was very troubling and solidified my worries that he was on the wrong side. Katon Dawson was the most accomplished and successful of the candidates, and Blackwell of OH was my 2nd preference (and he aggressively went after the RINO cancer in Ohio that has crippled the party there). Steele will have to prove himself from his very recent errors and inclinations. I fear the worst, but I hope to be proven wrong.
Oh, come on Charlie Brown. You know Lucy ALWAYS lets you kick that football!
One day... one day...
(And how come Charlie never once kicked Lucy in the can for being a little bitch ? She really had it coming)
That’s what I wanna know.
Did you ever see any of those Charlie Brown lampoons on YouTube ? Very vulgar, but funny.
We didn't want to let that out!
I appreciate the credit but it looks cumbersome in print. Just use the quote and with my blessings.
Yup, same here. It's been years since I've contributed to the RNC. Congrats, Michael! :o)
Questions for you both: Does Meet the press edit its production? Is it possible that his answer was manipulated?
thank you
my thoughts precisely...especially your choices
Congratulations Michael Steele. I haven’t been this thrilled with my party in a long time. Finally, something right!
I don't know how many Catholics have been RNC Chairman, but Congressman William E. Miller of Buffalo New York was Chairman during the early 1960's, and then became Barry Goldwater's candidate for Vice President.
