My email to Michael Steele:
Mike,
You’ve got to be kidding, right?
What Rush Limbaugh said was powerful and timely.
I am a proud conservative. I regularly read FreeRepublic.com and it would do you a lot of good to do so also. You could learn a great deal there and also come to know what real Republicans are thinking, not the nonsense that New York and Washington Republicans In Name Only (RINOs) are thinking. We lost in 2006 and 2008 precisely because of RINO thinking. I am not a loser and I am getting very tired of this RINO loser mentality that thinks appeasing the press is the way to influence. The press is bound hide and sinew to the Democratic party and should be treated as Democrats—our ideological adversaries. They’re no doubt taking great satisfaction in your remarks about Limbaugh that hurt us immensely. For shame!
You are taking the party down the WRONG path if you truly believe what Limbaugh said was incendiary and ugly.
I want you to resign and let a real conservative take over. Conservative principles and values are the winning ticket for us, not attacks on those espousing them.
Until such time, not a dime from me, and I will do my best to convince all the Alabamian Republicans I know to stop giving money to you RINOs in D.C.
Signed, A Proud Conservative Republican

Alas, your email was SO much kinder than mine, although we both made the same points.
PS: Joe Scarborough is way squishy and doesn’t tell the facts as they are. I think MSNBC has really spoiled his brain.
I can’t remember an effective RNC Chairman since Jim Gillespie. Steele would do well to watch videos of Gillespie speaking the conservative message on the Sunday shows. He was fearless, on message, and smiled as he gave our “talking points.”
Excellent, Alas!
We (conservatives) should write fewer strongly worded emails and win more elections.
