Steve Schmidt on Rachel.

Steve not pulling any punches. He called today a disgrace and called for the President to be censured. This requires a repudiation by every elected republican.

Steve Schmidt, the Sarah Palin fiasco aside, deserves respect. He must find this time torturous.

1. An expression of strong disapproval or harsh criticism.

2. An official rebuke, as by a legislature of one of its members.

tr.v. cen·sured, cen·sur·ing, cen·sures
To express strong disapproval of or criticize severely, especially in an official capacity: "whether the Senate will censure one of its members for conflict of interest" (Washington Post).

He is genuine -- genuinely a patriot, genuinely heartbroken.

an office holder, speak out. This is the time for Clarence Thomas, Ken Blackwell, Omarosa, Tim Scott, and the sycophantic Parris Denard to say something that will at least help them retain whatever dignity they have left.

He's old school.. I don't agree with him on everything for sure but he puts country before party - which is rare for the right these days.
