Mr. Steele is a modest man not given to sceaming matches. As appropriate as you or I might consider such things, he doesn't. On the other hand he is a strong anti-abortion guy ~ so when you get a Columbus Dispatch reporter (necessarily a Leftwingtard) saying, "Oh, yes, Steele supports pro-abortion candidates" your first initial take must necessarily be that the reporter is telling lies.

So, in answer to your question, yes, you must question the reporter's honesty and integrity, and as far as the writer scribbling in the publication where this report is found as a secondary document, I'd suspect he has his own choice for RNC chairman and it's not Steele.

You did know Steele is a Catholic, right? There are other issues at foot in this one.

I'm pretty sure that if Mr. Steele were a Holy Roller this sort of thing would be showing up in periodicals otherwise dedicated to trashing Sarah Palin. If he were Jewish the Washington Post would be trashing him every day. And if he were a Buddhist, you'd discover the same Hindu crowd that boosts Obama beating up on him.

If in fact, the dispatch reporter fabricated the quote attributed to steele, then the propagandists have lowered themselves to being nothing more than satan’s (the father of lies) minions.

Regarding catholics, and any other faith, or lack thereof for that matter, my criteria is “By their fruit ye shall know them”. Labels are accepted too readily as an indicator of values - and I may have been mislead in that way. (But then, I’m spending more time than I think I should just because you’ve made an issue of my little rant and I prefer to know the truth.)

While I’ve not spent much effort discerning mr. steele’s true foundations (primarily because the “r’s” don’t represent me), from reports and impressions I’ve garnered from FR, steele is just the gop’s lead salesman and has done nothing to improve my perspective.

To me they’re ALL politicians *ptui* (unless they demonstrate otherwise as do Jim DeMint, Duncan Hunter, Alan Keyes, Sarah Palin and I think Michelle Buchannan).

You may have facts to which I’m not privy. If so, I’m willing to listen.
