I don't give a damn that this guy said something politically incorrect. If conservatives are not only willing to throw him under the bus

It's unfortunate, but when something this reprehensible is uttered, it's the hook.

Leftists never apologize, never give in, and they never tear down their own people in power no matter how many mistakes they make.

Yes they do, but it wouldn't matter if they didn't. We are an honorable party. When you say frog-shit, you dance, in our party.

If you are referring to the Republican Party, I'd say they haven't been honorable for a long while. The rank-and-file voters, maybe, but not the party.

The only reason that this guy's statement is such a liability is because we have allowed the leftist media to have so much power in dictating the narrative. If, every time the media tried to make a big deal out of something stupid, or something misspoken, we fought them tooth and nail, they wouldn't have the full power and free rein they have now. Instead, we cave every time, allowing them to decide what is and is not allowed to be said.

To be honest, I think what bothers me most about this situation is not the possibility that this guy should drop out for political expedience, but that so many Freepers here are simply wallowing in the same jackal-like politically-correct feeding frenzy that the leftists routinely do. Freepers seem to be having a contest regarding who can heap more derision on this guy - almost as if they are happy to have an excuse to be on the same side as the media hacks and other assorted lefty nutbags. When I see that, I can't help but think we are lost.
