Could you imagine the uproar that would occur if the Democrat Party appointed as its CFO someone with a long history of supporting marriage as only between a man and a woman, the sanctity of life, and the Second Amendment?

No, you can't imagine it for the same reason you can't imagine riding your unicycle to Saturn. Both are impossible.

Unless the literal hand of God swooped down and made it so, in no known universe would today's Democrat Party put someone who was an anathema to the values enshrined in its platform in charge of the mother's milk of politics. See, the people running the Democrat Party aren't ashamed of the principles the party is supposed to stand for. Nor do they hate their own base.

Unfortunately, the people running the Republican Party do.

They prove this to us every chance they get. Like this week's appointment of Lew Eisenberg to Financial Chairman of the Republican National Committee as just the latest example.

So who is Lewis Eisenberg?

He's a long-time GOP fat cat with close ties to all the wrong people in the party, and most recently was a top bundler for Mitt Romney in 2012. Furthermore, this is hardly his first rodeo at the RNC. Check out this excerpt from the Washington Times back in 2002 when he previously was appointed to this post, and

From the article:

see if any of this sounds familiar:

Some conservatives are unhappy with the expected election of prominent New Jersey fund-raiser Lewis Eisenberg as the party's new national finance chairman. "I have a big problem with Eisenberg," said pro-life Texas RNC member Tim Lambert. "My perception is he is only for Republicans who are left-of-center." At the behest of the White House, party officials asked Georgia Republican Party Chairman Ralph Reed to nominate Mr. Eisenberg for the top finance post at the Austin meeting. A move intended to make his election more acceptable to the right. Mr. Reed is the Christian Coalition's former executive director. "We're grateful [Mr. Eisenberg] is willing to serve," said Ann Wagner, co-chairman of the RNC. "He has a long history of raising money for Republicans across the ideological spectrum, from Bob Dole and George Bush to George Pataki and Christie Todd Whitman."
