When Michael Steel said Government jobs are "not real jobs" I was hoping someone
would have said: "Excuse me sir, are you suggesting the soldiers in Iraq don't have real jobs?" :wow:

We could have nailed his ass on that but no one said it! If a Democrat had said something like that, you just know the Republicans would have played that card. We need to learn to play the game better.

3. This is the best reply I can think of for Steel and the GOP
At least on how they usually act. Of coarse generalizations are bad, and all people are good and bad, but the GOP is the best at being bad.

4. Steele's Job
Edited on Thu Feb-12-09 05:13 AM by radfringe
As Chairman of the RNC - one of his JOB duties is to see more members of his parties elected to GOVERNMENT JOBS.

Unless things have changed - people in these elected GOVERNMENT JOBS do receive payment from the GOVERNMENT.

If Steele doesn't find GOVERNMENT JOBS for his members - then Steele will be out of a JOB. Steele's JOB exists because there are GOVERNMENT JOBS.

5. actually John Glenn famously used that against Metzenbalm in a primary
Metzenbalm basicly said that Glenn never worked a real job and Glenn nailed him with that.
