Yeah, and step in it you did.

So O’Keefe may no be your cup of tea. You call him names and criticize what and how he does what he does, but he’s not afraid to get out there on the front lines actively trying to make a difference. You on the other hand, sit back and criticize and reveal your personal animosity and hatred, which gets us nowhere. You’re not exactly “promulgating” conservative values yourself. In your own words, “If you’re the “voice” of conservatism, we’re screwed.”

I can’t help but think that this quote from Theodore Roosevelt is appropriate in this instance:

“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat because they chose not to participate.”

What exactly are you doing to help stop voter fraud except to criticize others that are out there tying to actively expose it?

RIghtwardHo thinks it is okay for DEMS to do “gotcha” questions against people like Herman Cain, but do it to a DEM and he gets indignant.
