TexasTiger 16,052 Posted March 3, 2009 Share Posted March 3, 2009 He calls pill-boy "ugly". He left out getting fatter http://www.usnews.com/blogs/washington-whi...ush-attack.html He has since bowed to Rush's greater authority and apologized. Proving the point who leads the Republican base. The box the GOP is in: On the one side, the president of the United States: soft-spoken and conciliatory, never angry, always invoking the recession and its victims. This president invokes the language of "responsibility," and in his own life seems to epitomize that ideal: He is physically honed and disciplined, his worst vice an occasional cigarette. He is at the same time an apparently devoted husband and father. Unsurprisingly, women voters trust and admire him.And for the leader of the Republicans? A man who is aggressive and bombastic, cutting and sarcastic, who dismisses the concerned citizens in network news focus groups as "losers." With his private plane and his cigars, his history of drug dependency and his personal bulk, not to mention his tangled marital history, Rush is a walking stereotype of self-indulgence – exactly the image that Barack Obama most wants to affix to our philosophy and our party. And we’re cooperating! Those images of crowds of CPACers cheering Rush’s every rancorous word – we’ll be seeing them rebroadcast for a long time. [snip] But do the rest of us understand what we are doing to ourselves by accepting this leadership? Rush is to the Republicanism of the 2000s what Jesse Jackson was to the Democratic party in the 1980s. He plays an important role in our coalition, and of course he and his supporters have to be treated with respect. But he cannot be allowed to be the public face of the enterprise – and we have to find ways of assuring the public that he is just one Republican voice among many, and very far from the most important. http://newmajority.com/ShowScroll.aspx?ID=...af-aed79ad3b467 Link to comment https://www.aufamily.com/topic/56722-michael-steele-attacks-head-of-gop/#findComment-585185 Share on other sites More sharing options...
autigeremt 7,550 Posted March 3, 2009 Share Posted March 3, 2009 Rush speaks on the PRINCIPALS of the conservative. Those principals should not be bargained.... NEVER! That's my biggest problem with Liberals. Your core principals are fluid. That's wrong.

That's my biggest problem with Liberals. Your core principals are fluid. That's wrong. Elaborate. Not fluid so much as double. There is one set of principles for liberals and another for conservatives. Check that, there are no moral principles for liberals.

bigsixfive 341 Posted March 3, 2009 Share Posted March 3, 2009 Why does the left get so bent out of shape over people with no desire to run for office?

rexbo 104 Posted March 3, 2009 Share Posted March 3, 2009 Why does the left get so bent out of shape over people with no desire to run for office? Because he is criticizing THE ONE, and must be silenced!
