G.O.P. to Michael Steele: Shut up boy and do your job or we will find someone that will!
Looks like the Republican Party just handed the Democratic Party a huge gift:
Apology to Rush Limbaugh aside, new Republican National Committee Chairman Michael Steele is coming under fire from his own GOP troops to shut up and focus on his job of organizing the party and raising money, not fighting with his own political kind. Several Republican advisers to Congress and the previous Bush administration told Whispers that they are worried that the war of words is fracturing the party when it should be healing the division between conservatives and moderates in the wake of the 2008 election.
[….]
Others want Steele to re-evaluate his role in the party. Of concern: For no reason, he is dividing the GOP between conservatives who like Limbaugh and moderates who don’t and jeopardizing future fundraising efforts, his key responsibility. “The general sentiment of the conference is that Steele needs to step back and get a handle on his role in the party,” says an influential congressional aide. Namely, advisers want him to stay out of the media and focus instead on hiring his staff and revamping the RNC. “He needs to hire staff for the RNC, get the operations up and running, start raising money, and understand that his role is to win elections,” says a senior party adviser. Officials are concerned that Steele either doesn’t understand his responsibilities or has an inflated vision of his role. “At this point, it is as if he has a fundamental misunderstanding of the job description. An RNC chairman who attacks Republicans and insults conservative icons is about as counterproductive as any Democrat could hope for,” says the adviser.

I hate to be the one to say it. But the Republican Party is well-within its right to do this. Michael Steele was elected by the Republican Party to run the party, not be some talking head for that Party. Big Difference.
Not to mention the fact that going on a liberal news network and bashing Rush Limbaugh is not a good way to endear one’s self to the Republican Base.
I personally think that the blood is in the proverbial water and steel will resign within the week. I hope that I am wrong about that, but honestly? It just does not look good for the guy.

The Southern Avenger on "Rush's Style Over Substance"
Jack Hunter, also known as The Southern Avenger addresses Rush Limbaugh‘s style over his and the G.O.P’s ever increasing lack of substance.
I will simply add this, there is no denying that the G.O.P. is desperate need of a image and leadership making over. I am afraid, however, that the people that are attempting to make that image over are continuing on with more of the same. Just a different color of paint. (If you catch my drift…)
An Excellent Video

Asian Markets Slide
The ripple effect of Government Socialism spreads:
Asian stock markets slumped Monday amid resurgent concerns that a recovery in the global economy is unlikely to materialize until next year and worries about the global financial sector following fresh government bailouts for the insurance giant American International Group and Citigroup.
The Nikkei 225, Japan’s benchmark index, was down 4 percent and the Kospi in South Korea fell 3.6 percent, while the key index in Hong Kong sagged 3.8 percent. Singapore’s stock market fell 3.3 percent, and the markets in Australia and Taiwan dropped 2.8 percent. Stocks in mainland China declined least, falling 0.2 percent by Monday afternoon.
Stock in banks like Mitsubishi UFJ and Mizuho Financial Group were more than 4 percent lower in Tokyo because of fears about the health of the global banking system, after the United States government moved to take a larger stake in the ailing banking giant Citigroup and was set to give an additional $30 billion in taxpayer money to AIG.
And in Hong Kong, trading in HSBC was suspended in the wake of reports that the British bank will announce on Monday that it is tapping investors for about £12 billion, or about $17 billion.
“It’s pretty despondent everywhere,” said Dwyfor Evans, a strategist at State Street Global Markets in Hong Kong. “Okay, there are signs that some of the leading indicators have stabilized to some extent, but it’s at a very, very low level, and we’re not seeing corporate investment picking up, or consumers starting to spend again – in other words, the traditional mechanisms by which economies come out of a recession are absent at this time.”
While Barack Obama might be the President that saved the working class family in America, he might very well go down as the President who destroyed the free market capitalist system in America and around the World. Although, I will admit, that he did have help. Bill Clinton’s polices, along with the inaction of the Republican Congress of 2003, did nothing to stop this mess.
The bad part about is, I and everyone else will be most likely dead before it is all straightened out.
Welcome to the 21 century. 🙄
It is official: Ann Coulter is a clueless BOOB!
She now says that Afghanistan is lost! 😮
Watch:
Then when someone asks here if she’s helping or hurting the Conservative cause, she basically tells them to shut up.
I mean, Afghanistan was the damned reason we went to war in the first place, that is where Osama Bin Laden is at! Duh!
Like a said, Ann Coulter is nothing more than a idiot clueless BOOB!
More Anti-Ron Paul, Anti-John Birch Society Screed…
It seems that the blowhard Liberals are not happy with winning this election. Now they’ve taken to continuing to slandering Conservatives of all stripes; first example here. Now it seems that some blowhard by the name of James Kirchick is now smearing Ron Paul and the John Birch Society.
Honestly, do these people ever just stop? I mean, seriously, What the fuck else do they want? Conservatives to just die or be executed in mass?
I mean, I know Bush seriously fucked up and all. But Good God. Does it ever fucking end?
I just do not get it, at all.
