Now the Lefties can claim "conservatives" killed the only conservative hired by the POst. Way to go idiots.

Sorry, but one of the key differences between the left and the right is that we on the right will deal with our problem children when they happen.

And in the end, we benefit from such.

I agree that if it were up to conservatives to handle this then fine - go after him if he is truly guilty as the left has charged. However, it never hurts to use one's brain and let the left do the butchering when you do not have to do it.

Suppose you are a manager in a company and there is an emotional, risky conflict with another manager's ethics or abilities. Everyone knows there is a problem and that someone has to tell the boss who happens to think highly about the problem manager out of ignorance. Who is going to deliver the bad news?

Usually it is the one who is the most indignant and riled up about the offenses - the imperfection. And the more wise people will be glad to have the self righteous one run that show and leave the boss to consult with other managers after he's been broadsided with the bad news.

The whole point is to have the problem handled. It is not necessary that you be the one to pop the boil and get all messy when you don't have to do it in order for the problem to get solved. Conservatives did not have to jump in there with the knife - the loony left would have done it and not looked real pretty doing it. Then conservatives could have said to the Post, "okay, you let the radicals butcher your first conservative, who is next?" Instead the leftist managers at the Post can say, it was the conservatives who demanded he get fired.

Conservatives love jumping in for the slaughter for the love of the kill. They are self righteous when they don't have to be because they do not think before they react and this hurts us in our cause just as it hurts people who act like this in their careers. They do not think strategically. That is my opinion.
