But is what she wrote wrong?

Maybe Rush would appreciate a thoughtful and qualified defense, more than knee-jerk praise.

Her column has the potential of convincing people who would otherwise disagree.

Simple chest-pounding doesn't do that.

But is what she wrote wrong?

Absolutely. By her own words, she is a 'mushy' moderate Republican. (translation = RINO) I have no use for her.

Maybe Rush would appreciate a thoughtful and qualified defense, more than knee-jerk praise.

I ask you, how would you know what Rush would appreciate?

Her column has the potential of convincing people who would otherwise disagree.

You mean other 'mushy' moderates? Other RINOS?

Screw 'em, that is what's wrong with the GOP, and that is why they lost last November.

Simple chest-pounding doesn't do that.

The hell it doesn't. What the Republican Party needs are a dedicated pack of 'roid-enraged conservative gorillas who will rip the party structure to shreds, expel each and every 'mushy' and 'squishy' weak sister, establish a new Party organization and platform that is 110 percent Reaganism, i.e., smaller federal government, not the ever expanding behemoth that has been fed by both 'Rats and RINOs (and I mean George W. Bush as well), declare our eternal opposition to Islamofascist terrorism on a global scale, fiscal responsibility which is based NOT on pouring money out of the U.S. treasury into the hands of our enemies and adversaries.

That's just for starters, get the picture?

"Last year I took on his bashing of Republican moderates and criticized Limbaugh and other talk-radio hosts when they were too harsh on not-yet GOP nominee John McCain. I've never apologized"

That sums up Debra J Saunders, and that sums up what is wrong with the Republican Party. The so called 'moderates' need to be bashed until they turn tail and run, never to return.
