Actually I already answer the question you gave more directly, so if you are still in the dark, you can search the posts.
Race issues will never end unless everyone is allowed to discuss them. While you allow Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton to be the only people who can discuss race then racism will not end in America.
You got that right.
Ta Ta, Steele.
Steele tried to cover his sorry rear because Hoffman was gaining fast------Steele stupidly declared that since both Scozzofava and Hoffman were Republicans, a victory by either would be OK by him........duh.
Here’s the process by which Pete Sessions was elected chair of the NRCC:
The Chairman is elected by the House Republican Conference after each Congressional election. Republican Leader John Boehner and the seven other elected leaders of the Republican Conference of the House of Representatives serve as ex-officio members of the NRCC’s executive committee.

It’s apparent we must get involved in this vote, too. After the 2010 election, we must call GOP reps and demand they vote for a conservative candidate to head the NRCC. My vote is Pence.
You do not know who or what I would allow, but I could say that you are the one pressing a politically correct view (at least from your point of view), and seeking to silence me for point out what is very clearly the truth.
The fact that Steele supports some kind of affirmative action has no bearing on the racist insult that was leveled at him. Affirmative action is neither a good thing or a bad thing; it depends one what one is affirmative about. I know of no one who is opposed to affirmative steps to make hiring fair for everyone, but that is a far cry from saying that someone should get a job just because he is a certain race, and if I know Steele as I think I do, that would be his view.
But that is not what the writer, or you have been talking about. You are saying that a black man couldn't be (or at least it is unlikely) qualified to hold the position that Steele now holds unless he got it unfairly. That is plainly a racist view. You seemed to be at one time ashamed of that fact, so you defend yourself against it, but you dare to support the view nevertheless. You are right to feel at least the degree of shame that you have exposed, but that ought to make you take a second look and correct your view.
Your ability to project your imagination into my words prevents us from having a logical discussion.
Good day to you.
I disagree.
In my humble opinion (you do know the meaning of humble, don't you), hypersensitivity to race relations is the first sign of a bigot in denial.
>> Michael Steele, the RNC Chair and NRCC Chair Pete Sessions have shown they arent up to their jobs.
Now, wouldn’t it be fun to put Sarah in charge of the GOP for a little while.

COA by the RNC whore ;-)
He couldn't do any more damage, lead the right more astray if he were on and/or working for the other side. LOL!!
Maybe Newt can find another dying wife to divorce?
And that is exactly what happened.
Steele is incompetent. Therefor, he did not get the job based on competence.
There is nothing wrong with speculating as to other reasons for why he was suddenly given the position.
Mike Pence shoud be the nominee for President.
This should also poison any hopes that Newt Gingrich may harbor of being someone in 2012. His defense of the endorsement was especially lame, and pretty dishonest.
All those photo sessions with Clinton, Pelosi and Sharpton have curdled his gray matter.
I agree. Let’s do it. Term limits for all in Washington, DC. The Office of president is term limited why not the rest of them, including the Super Supremes?
“However claiming that Steele was an “affirmative action” pick implies that he got his job just because of his race rather than his competence. That’s a racist insult, and is contrary to the facts.”
It is my belief that the RINO wusses at the RNC wanted a black leader of the RNC so they could have him criticize Obama without being called a racist. They fear being called racists almost as much as they fear conservatives. That just might be related to affirmative action. Affirmative action is racist, so the RNC is racist.
