Well this should seal Michael Steele’s doom.

The Anti-War nutcase Ron Paul congratulating him.

It is the kiss of death for any serious conservative

An endorsement (kiss of death) from Ron Paul should be sufficient motivation for Mr. Steele to be removed from his current position with the RNC.

Even that incompetent race card playing fool Steele and that whack job Paul are right once in a blue moon.

There is no "winning" in Afghanistan, either commit to staying there for the next 50-100 years and westernize them or don't bother wasting the lives and body parts.

Hussein is already committed to bugging out next July, so what is the point of one more American casualty?

"Michael Steele should not resign. Smart policies make smart politics. He is guiding the party in the right direction and we are on the verge of victory this fall."

If anyone needed additional evidence that Ron Paul is a certifiable loon, ANY defense of Michael Steele should suffice. This comment goes WELL beyond sufficient.

I never thought we'd see a GOP chairman worse than Mel Martinez. I was wrong. Steele gets there, and then some.

I’m no fan of the Afghan war, but publicly scheduling a departure date is the height of stupidity.

Folks I have to agree with Michael Steele on this one. Considering the current administration strategy there is no winning this war. We cannot even call it a war. We cannot describe our enemy as "radical islam". We are giving medals for "restraint". We have already told the enemy when we are leaving. We continue to support a corrupt government (both at home and in Afghanistan). We cannot win this war without a change of administration and a change in Afghani leadership.

When we elected 0bama, we lost the war.

Actually Mr Paul has a very valid point, if you just take the time to read what he said. And I am not a Pual fan when it comes to his views on the war.

BUT he is correct this is now Obaba’s war, and the points he makes about what Obama said is spot on.

I don’t think Ron Paul is the man that M. Steele is waiting to hear nice things from. Maybe he will release money now for Rand Paul

A lovely reverse-psychology propaganda hit from Ron Paul. The establishment-übuer-alles types purt near blew a gasket, no doubt.

People should remember that before the neo-cons, conservatism meant non-interventionism. Ron Paul is a throwback to those days.

I don’t know if the war in Afghanistan is winnable (certainly not under the current rules of engagement), but Steele’s statement may show some political savvy, because the American people are indeed war weary.

And it’s fine to disagree with Rep. Paul, but it would be helpful to all of us in the movement if people would address the issues and not resort to name-calling (as the Establishment does to marginalize those it sees as a threat).

Rep. Paul is decidedly unconventional in his views, but he also raises many issues that every conservative should at least consider. Like: Why do we still spend billions maintaining military bases in Germany and Japan? And: Can we really say that the Federal Reserve has done a great job managing our money supply, such that they deserve the billions we pay them in interest?

If we’re going to undo this mess, we need a healthy discussion of everything brought to the table, not a summary dismissal of sincere viewpoints.

With all due respect, what Mr. Steele said was correct
