We here in Maryland are supposed to be all excited that one of our own, Michael Steele, is in the running for the Chairman of the R.N.C. I am still awaiting a reply from Mr. Steele to my inquiry concerning his apparent cave-in on ESCR.
His chummy relationship with FOX news, also concerns me. FOX would not allow Ron Paul in the New Hampshire primary debate, and in a later debate, they showed their true Neoconservative color, when they tried to embarass Dr. Paul, by insinuating that he didn't belong on the stage.
As a Ron Paul Republican, looking for a humble foreign policy, I find Mr. Steele's Iraq position unconstitutional. We go to war to "establish a beachhead of democracy"? I hope the nearly one million civillians who have been murdered in the anarchy we created feel the same. Oh, they're dead.
Q: Do you believe the war has been worth the price we've paid in lives and costs?
Steele: I think the war has been worth it to the extent that what we're trying to establish there is a beachhead of democracy. When we walk out of Iraq, what do we want? Do we want an Iraq that's an ally of the US, or do we want an Iraq that is an enemy of the US? We want an ally, so it's been worth it to us to establish this beachhead of democracy and an ally in an area where we've had some trouble in the past.

And, I thought the former seminarian, Steele, would use the constitution to attempt to save some babies. Dr. Paul suggested that we, through the Congress, through the constitution (Article 3 section 2), tell the federal courts to stay out of questions related to the life of the unborn, and let the states decide. Steele is fine with Roe v. Wade. I hope the thousands of babies that are aborted are also fine. Oh, they're dead.
Q: Would you hope the US Supreme Court overturns Roe v. Wade?
Steele: My desire is that we follow what stare decisis is at this point.
