The press is trying to destroy the Republican party thru this issue. Where in the hell are the Republican damage control troops when they're needed? In the press, we'll hear about Bush and Cheney ad nauseum, and it will allow the Dems will win the upcoming elections. Do the math, Pubbies in power.

On another thread, I posted a rant on the lack of leadership and agressiveness by the President, Vice-President, house and senate leaders and the National Republican party in the PR department. (All for the sake of a "kinder, gentler DC", I presume)

I posed the question when was the last time anyone saw or heard the RNC chairman on ANYTHING?

The DNC guy, McCauliffe is all over the tube and the printed media almost every day with his evil, but at least he's doing what he's being paid to do.

For decades, the GOP has been functionally disabled in using the media to further its goals. We're always waiting for them to change, but it never happens.

Please don't tell me all the Pubs are completely denied face-time on the Capitol steps, the Presidential bully-pulpit or the talk shows. Not true, and it's no excuse.

Bring back Haley Barbour! At the least, when he was RNC chairman, we knew what he looked like.
