Let me defend Chairman Steele here. I know there’s been some frustration with him.
But he took over a party in shambles. We can go all day about how that came to be. Yet, posting here from Steele’s home county in Maryland, Steele has fantastic talents.
To put it in words of an analysis I heard from a Navy Captain almost twenty years ago, Steele is malleable. He is learning, and doing that right fast.
The problem here is not Steele, it is Cao. Let me illustrate with a story I heard years ago.
A German farmer kept his shepherd dogs, ferocious and loyal, as his finest allies in dealing with his flocks. They helped him in everything he needed to do everyday running the farm.
One day, the biggest and toughest of the shepherd dogs turned on him and bit him slightly on the hand. The farmer smacked the dog down with a stick, and the dog backed down with tail between legs.
But the farmer knew he was not done dealing with this betrayal. He grabbed the collar of the animal that had attacked him and dragged it in front of the other dogs.
He took out his revolver and shot the dog right in the back of the head. The animal fell limp and collapsed on the ground. The farmer left it there for a day.
Never again did any one of the German shepherd dogs bite the farmer.
This is how Steele must handle Cao’s betrayal.
Well then..how about the other RINO dogs like Snowe and Collins?
Speaking strictly metaphorically, of course.
Although a simple public censure followed with removal of financial support would satisfy me, I understand your frustration :)
Steele has been a disappointment so many times, but unlike his predecessor, I think Steele could be a decent RNC leader. He needs to forgo a few of his social needs.
I don’t know. Shooting Cao in the head might appear a bit harsh. How about if Steele just smacks the crap out of him instead.
Alright.
If he does that I will change my mind about Steele.
I will be watching.
