Demand that GOP "head" Michael Steele denounce the "pro-life" murderer in Kansas
I thought that Micheal Steele was more moderate than he is. Well, he was endorsed by the theocratic asshats with National Right to Life. So he's perhaps complicit in the murder.

Although Steele was questioned about his commitment to the pro-life perspective during the campaign because of his former involvement in the Republican Leadership Council, a group that features a large number of pro-abortion Republicans, Steele said his only reason for participating was his desire to grow the party and that he remained solidly pro-life on abortion.

In a previous interview with CBN News, Steele said he had adopted a pro-life position since the beginning of his political career.

"When I came out and got politically involved I was an advocate for pro-life issues," he explained.

"I was endorsed by National Right to Life. I don't think they would endorse me if I were squeamish or squishy as some have called me on this issue," Steele added, referring to the endorsement he received during his Senate campaign in 2006.

“Roe versus Wade was wrongly decided. It should be overturned in my personal view," Steele said about his position on the Supreme Court case that allowed for virtually unlimited abortions.

I'd like to see Steele denounce the murder. I know he wouldn't because his base probably are enjoying the tragic news.

1. If one doesn't denounce the murder
of Dr George Tiller then they aren't "pro life", are they?

I'm against murder, bombing babies, and the death penalty but believe in a woman's right to choose over her body.

If the gop condones this then it's just one more notch in their hypocricy belt.

7. they were never "pro-life"
one can not be "pro-life" if you support the iraq war,in favor of torture,or support the death penalty.

I hate when they use that word,it's gets a rise out of me.

3. They need to denounce it
They need to completely disassociate with the likes of O Really. They wont though.

4. "pro-life" murderers • "pro-life" executions • "pro-life" water-boarding
I think I'm finally getting the hang of this cognitive dissonance thing.

I fear that Brother Steele is too busy with high fives, to craft his condemnation.

8. I'd sure like the right to be stuck explaining how this guy isn't a
domestic terrorist.

It looks like there might be some bomb making equipment in his past too.
