"After saying that, they ignore the attacks and never mention Limbaugh again, unless asked. If asked, they simply repeat that Limbaugh has no position within government or the party and that discussing him is distraction from the real issues.

Yes, yes, yes. Why is it that some guy posting on a web site in the middle of the day can understand this, but six and seven figure political consultants can't convince the GOP leadership and rank & file of the same.

NBC just released a new poll that has Dems winning the "economy debate" 48% to 20%. Why? Because our Republican representatives are too worried about defending Rush Limbaugh.

An NBC poll for Obama is really big news. Pretty predictable.

Please; Don't site anymore polls; who watches or looks at NBC stuff?

We makes me want to bang my head against the wall even more is that people like Steele, who are refusing to defend Rush, are going to the other extreme and joining in the attack on him. That's just as bad, even worse.

If someone else attacks Rush, and defending him is not policially smart, it doesn't mean to you have to join in the attack.

Why can't these idiots understand that it's best not to offer an opinion on an unimportant, irrelevant subject?

Here, pubbies, here's your talking point:

"Rush Limbaugh is neither an elected official nor a party leader. His opinions are his own, not the party's, so discussing them is a distraction from the real issues at hand. I nothing more to say about him. Can we now please get back to the business of the American people? We have much more important things to worry about than some talkshow host."

Now why is that so hard to say?

But no, instead of that, Steele goes out an insults Rush, and then makes himself look like even more of an ass by groveling and apologizing to him.

Ugh.
