re #114 ArmyWife:

That’s unfortunate, because the media are doing a successful job right now painting all conservatives and the Republican party as being disciples of Rush. What we need right now is someone to stand up and take Rush on in a public way to demonstrate that he’s just one voice and conservatism is not defined by Rush. It’s probably difficult for Steele to do it since in his role as RNC Chair he has to try and be diplomatic and keep the party coalition together. Maybe John McCain or someone like Rudy Giuliani can do it.

The Democrats and the media would like everyone to believe that Republicans are all like Rush and the far right on social issue, and if no prominent Republican is willing to stand up and take him on, then they’ll succeed.

I repeat my re: #117 jcm

Alinsky rule #12 at work.

RULE 12: Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it.” Cut off the support network and isolate the target from sympathy. Go after people and not institutions; people hurt faster than institutions. (This is cruel, but very effective. Direct, personalized criticism and ridicule works.)

Obama picks the target…. meanwhile the GOP falls all over themselves choosing sides….

Rush is not the target.

The policies of Obama / Reid / Pelosi are the target.

Steele vs. Rush is want Obama wants, infighting on the right while he socialize the country, bankrupts the economy, and surrenders our security.
