Yes, he is no leader, just another Party member looking out for the Party and not the People.

Screw 'em all!

He gave that statement two years ago and it's since been rehashed by the Michael Steele bashers on FR endlessly. Why do you feel the need to post it yet again and act as if it's a brand new position he's currently "calling for" as Chairman? What purpose would that serve other than to get conservatives riled up and cause Republicans to turn on each other?

“What do you need an assault weapon for, if you’re going hunting? That’s overkill.”

Because the second amendment is NOT about hunting but about our right to be defend ourselves AND our Constitution! In order to defend ourselves properly we need to be armed with no less the firepower than what our enemies may have whether foreign or domestic!

I swear these “geniuses” must be a 1000 years old because it would take that long to get that stupid!

"I called to get a response on that quote, and I was told he has no opinion on the Second Amendment or the AWB."

Steele needs to be taken to the local gun range wherever he goes to get some real world experience and training.

I feel the need to ‘rehash it’ because the gun boards are currently melting down over it and rightly so, especially since we have an AG came out, just a few days ago, saying he wants to bring it back!

Assault weapon:

Fully automatic rifle, generally used by LEO and the military, OR is an "Assault weapon" a semi-auto version of the same gun?

I will definitely call! I carry a copy of the US Constitution with me at all times and I’ll be darned if I can find anything about hunting in there!

Once again, if you doubt anything I say, feel free to call his office and find out for yourself.

Michael, Michael,...

The 2nd amendment is about as much about "skeet shooting and hunting" as the 1st Amendment is about porn. Peripheral, at best, and irrelevant at worst.

Get a grip on yourself (and the Constitution) if you want to get anywhere with rebuilding this Party. If you can't, resign and let a somebody who understands plain 18th Century English (not to mention the HELLER Decision) take the helm. You are courting with disaster.

Mr Steele, the second amendment isn't about hunting, it's about protecting citizens from their Government.

"Supposedly Rush lit him up today..."

I heard it. I have been listening to Rush since 88'. Today was one of the best rants I have ever heard him go into. He ripped the GOP a new one...BIG TIME!

This racial love affair and “guilt” for the black race is destroying us! I say that as an unapologetic caucasian who has absolutely no racist bone in his body. What I am against though is using ones race,ethnicity etc. to promote oneself in lieu of NO SKILLS whatsoever! It is racism in its worse form! An attempt to subjugate one race by using the guilt from sins of the past of another race. I guess I need to propogate guilt upon whomever afflicted my ancestors as well!
We need the RIGHT people not the black,brown,red or white people!
