Republicans Say No to "Democrat-Socialist" Resolution and Clown Suits

Give credit where it's due: RNC Chairman Michael Steele managed some successful party leadership today. Though in all fairness, that leadership essentially took the form of convincing his fellow Republicans not to dress up in a collective clown suit and convey their policy preferences through air horn blasts.

From CNN.com:

Members of the Republican National Committee appear to have reached a compromise that would let GOP leaders avoid a possible dispute over a controversial resolution that calls on Democrats to re-name their party the "Democrat Socialist party."

Steele has come out against the resolution, calling it "not an appropriate way to express our views on the issues of the day." One of Steele's allies on the committee, Florida GOP chairman Jim Greer, told CNN the resolution is "stupid" and "ridiculous."

So... instead of re-nicknaming the Democratic Party (which they already call the Democrat Party) as the "Democrat Socialist Party," they're going simply vote to condemn the "Democrats' march toward socialism.

We can change their name too. But why bother naming a dead horse?

I forgot what DUer coined that term... but I sure love it!

:hi:

But I still wish we had the noble elephant and they were stuck with the jackass.

The "Democrat Poopie Head Party". It was narrowly defeated.

the "Democrat Socialist Party", which was probably the plan all along.

that they were dumb enough to even suggest this. I think we win in this situation.

is the first "smart' thing I've seen Steele do in a long while.

there goes the new GOP platform.

Back to the drawing board, dammit ....................

Oh no! :o I'm shaking, how about you guys?

That would be something.
