wasn’t it Reagan’s 11th commandment: “thou shalt not speak ill of fellow Republicans” ? Take a lesson and stop beating our own and save it for the opposition.

As I've already demonstrated, Reagan didn't even believe in this mythical "11th Commandment."

The ONLY time we ever hear about this "11th Commandment" is when we are being told that we need to accept liberalism in the name of "unity".

Actually the 11th Commmandment applied to Republicans...

President Reagan wasnt including liberal Democrat supporters like Romney when he said it...

Wrong, the “11th commandment” was used by the Republican Party of CA in 1966 when Reagan was running for Gov. It was used to get the moderates off the back of conservatives (goldwater was getting a beating), to build party unity and get their conservative candidate elected. Reagan won that election and the rest is history. He may not have said the words but he benefitted from the practice. That subsequent party loyalists used this commandment to promote Liberalism, shame on them. It’s practice is applicable if we ever find a Conservative to run again - which is looking slimmer and slimmer because we can’t even let Romney raise money for us without busting his head open. Geez.
