Michael Steele VS Rush Limbaugh?

The media has tried to make a big deal out of the comments Michael Steele made about Rush Limbaugh. On the D. L. Hughley show on CNN, Steele said Rush Limbaugh was "not the leader" of the Republican party. And this is CORRECT. Limbaugh is a radio host who espouses mostly conservative ideas - he is NOT a leader of the Republican party. By definition, Michael Steele is - after all, he was elected to head the Republican National Committee (RNC).

Steele also said that Rush sometimes says some "ugly" comments - which I happen to agree with. But the media is trying to make a mountain out of a mole hill. The media (and the White House) are trying to play up the "major divide" in the GOP. Much of this divide is made up in order to slime the whole party.

Steele already apologized for the ruffling of feathers, but there really wasn't much to what Steele had said. He was simply making a factual observation!

Some are actually calling Michael Steele to either be removed or to resign, which is absolute nonsense. Steele is a bright and very talented guy -- someone the GOP desperately needs.

In fact, I hope Steele will be the VP pick when Huckabee is the nominee in 2012!
