Republican strategist Steve Schmidt said early Wednesday morning on MSNBC that it’s time for Republican leaders to stand up to “extreme statements” and “nonsense” coming from within the GOP, including Rush Limbaugh.
“Now, people calling for revolution and these extreme statements — when I talk about a civil war in the Republican Party, what I mean is, it’s time for Republican elected leaders to stand up and to repudiate this nonsense, and to repudiate it directly,” Schmidt said.

“Conservative radio will be illegal. It’ll be against the law to say anything bad about Islam. These are just two things that will happen and the people will accept them.”

No, I won’t. I also don’t understand why right and even left can’t take to twitter, Facebook and all those social media things and start mirroring back all the threats the Imams make. Can you imagine if we all started mirroring back their hate? I am sick to death those crazy, noisy, threatening Islamist and we sit quiet and polite. PFFFT!
You know what’s extreme, Schmidt?
—murdering unborn babies in the womb
—nullifying contracts at will to benefit your campaign donors
—ignoring the tenth amendment to create a large welfare state
—openly announcing that you will ignore the law to help illegal immigrants, thereby usurping the legislative power of the Congress
—having a kill list accountable to no one
—groping people because they want to travel
—16 trillion dollars in debt
—encouraging contractors to break the law and promising to cover their legal bills, so that the employment numbers look good before the election.
You know what’s not extreme?
—the basic human right of having a government that governs with the consent of the governed.
—having the court system honor a contract you signed entitling you to your private property, such as shares in Chrysler for example
—swearing to uphold the Constitution
—the rule of law
—making it illegal to kill unborn babies
—allowing people to choose what kind of energy they want to buy
Blaming conservatives for liberals failures is ludicrous.
The RINO’s had everything they wanted. Admit it. They failed.
Please let me clarify: I don't think he was the problem. I think the ultimate problem was that we let the media and our schools be co-opted decades ago. I was simply noting that Rush creates as many problems as he used to solve these days. In short, I think he's gotten a little full of himself. But even if he hadn't we'd stil be in the deep doo doo.
Because we conceded the media and our schools to the libs. We are going to have to spend the next several decades taking them back or we're toast.
Rush has a big day coming up. I hope and pray for wisdom for him!
Why don't they talk about a lot of things? Like the fact that Mitt Romney has no business even being in the Republican party? If Romney is a "Republican," than what the hell is the point of being one to contrast Democrats?
Nothing was lost here.
Most people never heard a peep from Rush this election, the Fluke thing was tiny, he had no real negative impact whatsoever
No, Obama is extreme. We can thank the indoctrination by the public schools and the MSM for the Sandra Fluke phenomenon and such a dumb, immoral populace who would actually elect such an immoral, evil creature because they can’t “think”. To them Marxism is “fair” and never “evil”. They have been trained well by the Billy Ayers-type who write the curricula.
Get all your children and grandchildren out of public school and throw out the TV.
People can no longer use reason and logic-—like Rush.
Time for new Republican “strategists”.
No. Strike that. Time for the GOP to die and be replaced by a functional party of opposition.
Agreed. Calling her a slut did not help. Rush didn’t lose the election, but his comments and Akins and Mourdock HURT our cause.
” - - - The RINO’s want a civil war. The guy even said it.- - - - “
GAME ON!
I’m in!
I was starting to calm down, UNTIL I read this.
Good!
Bullshit! He just a conservative talk show host. His political views were very much mainstream with the rest of America until this monumental shift leftward in the last couple of decades. Go back to DU.
Get all your children and grandchildren out of public school and throw out the TV.
People can no longer use reason and logic-—like Rush.
The majority of my fellow Americans are better than a dumb, immoral populace. The evidence around me bears me out.
You want to use reason and logic, ask yourself why there's so much voter fraud on the Democrat side, and take it from there.
Psssst ... we're the majority.
You are right on. People are missing the point. The left has controlled the media,schools, entertainment and thus the narrative. The repubs are stumbling clowns when it comes to delivering the message. Example is the two asshat senatorial candidates who made idiotic extreme statements regarding rape and abortion.Both were defeated ; Defeat snatched from the jaws of victory.
I am changing to independent. I hope many others do likewise and shame the repubs into a major overhaul. They won’t change unless we force it on them.
The left unleashed hell on Romney, but he took the high road, just like McCain did. Look where it got us. We take a knife to a gun fight. The left will stop at nothing, will stoop to any level, to remain in power. To defeat them we have to fight smarter, dirtier than them, gain the narrative
back as we did with Reagan. He was our last great communicator.
Lets face it, half our country is sheep dip, they want govt. largess and security, freedom be damned. We have to be astute enough to persuade to narrow middle to side with us, because we will never persuade the eaters and shitters.
Wasn’t this the clown that helped run the last great RINO campaign with McLame?
Hey Schmidt, you do realize that Rush and Conservative talk radio is about the only thing stopping us from the tyranny of the liberal media... Well.. That and Free Republic, of course.
Think about it. Akins and Mourdock were no Rino’s. They lost in RED states because of idiotic comments. Very important Senate seats now Democrat.
