RNC chairman/token Carlton Michael Steele made some of his familiar joe biden-esque comments and was apparently videotaped calling the war in Afghanistan(also known as the war on terror aka the first blunder of the second bush).
"Keep in mind again, federal candidates, this was a war of Obama's choosing. This is not something the United States had actively prosecuted or wanted to engage in."...
"It was the president who was trying to be cute by half by flipping a script demonizing Iraq, while saying the battle really should be in Afghanistan. Well, if he's such a student of history, has he not understood that you know that's the one thing you don't do, is engage in a land war in Afghanistan? All right, because everyone who has tried, over a thousand years of history, has failed. And there are reasons for that. There are other ways to engage in Afghanistan." -carlton

BY WILLIAM KRISTOL
Dear Michael,
You are, I know, a patriot. So I ask you to consider, over this July 4 weekend, doing an act of service for the country you love: Resign as chairman of the Republican party.
Your tenure has of course been marked by gaffes and embarrassments, but I for one have never paid much attention to them, and have never thought they would matter much to the success of the causes and principles we share. But now you have said, about the war in Afghanistan, speaking as RNC chairman at an RNC event, "Keep in mind again, federal candidates, this was a war of Obama's choosing. This was not something that the United States had actively prosecuted or wanted to engage in." And, "if [Obama] is such a student of history, has he not understood that you know that's the one thing you don't do, is engage in a land war in Afghanistan?"
Needless to say, the war in Afghanistan was not "a war of Obama’s choosing." It has been prosecuted by the United States under Presidents Bush and Obama. Republicans have consistently supported the effort. Indeed, as the DNC Communications Director (of all people) has said, your statement "puts [you] at odds with about 100 percent of the Republican Party."
And not on a trivial matter. At a time when Gen. Petraeus has just taken over command, when Republicans in Congress are pushing for a clean war funding resolution, when Republicans around the country are doing their best to rally their fellow citizens behind the mission, your comment is more than an embarrassment. It’s an affront, both to the honor of the Republican party and to the commitment of the soldiers fighting to accomplish the mission they’ve been asked to take on by our elected leaders.
There are, of course, those who think we should pull out of Afghanistan, and they’re certainly en led to make their case. But one of them shouldn't be the chairman of the Republican party.
Sincerely yours,
William Kristol
That's why you don't elect a liberal lite rhino.
*or appoint in this case.
John Wayne never used a strap.
"Never start a land war in Asia."
Wasn't there something similar in Love and Death? Father's last advice to Boris?
Also, apparently:We have made the same mistake that five star General Douglas MacArthur warned about with regard to Asia, "Never get involved in a land war in Asia."
http://www.imdb.com/ le/tt0093779/triviaVizzini's advice on not getting involved in a land war in Asia is derived from principles stated by Field Marshal Bernard L. Montgomery (Viscount Alamein) in a speech in the House of Lords on 30 May 1962: "Rule 1, on page 1 of the book of war is: 'Do not march on Moscow.' ... Rule 2 is: 'Do not go fighting with your land armies in China.'"
Comments level attribution to an unnamed historian wrt Napoleon's Russian campaign is out there...pending corroboration.
this guy's even blaming Michael Steele's faults on liberalism. We've passed the barrier into full blown bull sville.
Them cowboys know their bull , stack it high, and keep it comin
Fire Steele, appoint Biden.
As GOP chairman?
At this point, could it really hurt?
Short of total annihilation things can always get worse.
what the . Well this changes everything.
SnC, aren't you ever tired of being wrong?
this one hurts. All those times my Drill SGT's called me John Wayne. They set me up for failure.SnC, aren't you ever tired of being wrong?
lol @ the black leader of the white boy party speaking his mind, saying things that sound a bit logical even, and people asking for him to resign.
don't get me wrong, he's an idiot. but he's also dangerous cuz he's street. you get me?
Cheer up buckeroo. Everyone makes a mistake sometimes.
