Wrong! California state GOP chairman Gaylord Parkinson wrote the 11th commandment to take pressure off Reagan's run for Governor in 1966. Specifically, it was used to counter the attacks on Reagan's by his primary GOP challenger, liberal San Francisco Mayor George Christopher.
The 11th commandment was a slogan that Reagan pulled out of his bag of tricks from time to time. When it suited him. For the rest of us, it was meant nothing. Politics is a nasty endeavor. Not for the thin skinned or the faint of heart.
The point is, the only way to stop the Socialists is if we are united. To use dirty tactics against fellow Republicans is a formula for disaster. Most of us have not even thought about it but to isolate fellow Republicans is rediculous.
