GOP Strategist Tony Blankley Says No Need for Steele to Resign; Confident He Will Survive – Video
Freedom's Lighthouse ^ | July 3, 2010 | Brian

Posted on 07/03/2010 1:00:17 PM PDT by Federalist Patriot

Here is video of GOP Strategist Tony Blankley saying there is no need for GOP Chairman Michael Steele to resign in the wake of Steele’s comments that the War in Afghanistan is a “War of Obama’s choosing.” Blankley seems sure Steele will survive this, and will remain chairman of the RNC. He said Bill Kristol has greatly overreacted in calling for Steele to step down.

I don’t think so. The GOP has stood strongly for our troops and for the war efforts in both Iraq and Afghanistan. Steele’s comments sounded like he was a Democrat opposing the Iraq War back when Bush was President. His view is not reflective of the party he is supposed to be leading.

Steele needs to go away.
As far as I am concerned he is deaf dumb and blind to the party.

Steele should have been fired a ong time ago. If he was not black he would have been.

Steele is the perfect illustration of why affirmative action doesn’t work. After you hire someone because of their skin color, you cannot get rid of them when they screw up.

Steele cannot be fired because he is black. If he were fired, the Republican party would be called racist, lily white, old white men. Ousting him is impossible with the fall elections only four months away.

The politically untouchable Steele is dreadfully incompetent. Any Republican victories in the fall will be in spite of Steele, not because of him.

Republican progressives AND republican NON progressives NEED to be identified..

The Progressive Presidents also need identification..
Progressive = Daddy Bush, the Clintoons, Bush Jr., and Obama.. also John McLame and Al Gump..

**Note: If this is not done.. American politics will remain nebulous.. and a circle jerk... Voting in a swamp like a blindman..

Hold on Tony. Steele can dis Conservatives all of the time, he can dis Republicans some of the time but he can’t dis Neo-cons any of the time. He has crossed the line, Steele is about to be drummed out, starved out and cussed out.

Post of the day in any thread. After Reagan, it’s been a straight run of anti-Reagan.

Thank you!

But, as for the current racist (anti-white) environment that you alluded to, remember that Jesse Jackson said that blacks (and allies) could not be racist!

Blacks were slaves and sharecroppers and Jim Crow victims for so long, he said, that any mean-spirited thoughts toward their white oppressors are entirely justified.
