RNC Michael Steele Goes At Speaker Kent Williams

By Kleinheider Posted on May 24, 2009 at 8:21 pm

Hank Hayes reports on the visit to the Sullivan County GOP’s Reagan Day Dinner:

“Kent Williams betrayed every Republican in this state,” Steele said. “Your chairwoman (Smith) immediately said ‘We’re going to get this thing worked out right.’ You don’t have to ever worry about people forgetting that (Williams) name again, because I can tell you one thing, when 1,172,000 people vote the Republican Party to control the state legislature and one man takes it away from them, I got a bull’s eye right on his back, and we’re taking him out. I want you to know we’ve got our targets, too.

“We remember those who serve well, but we also remember those especially who turn their backs on the party, who snatch victory away, not from the party, but from the people. So let the message go out — we come to play, we play hard and we intend to win, completely.”

    Nice Michael Steele. Just when the TNGOP was showing respect for Speaker Williams, you come along and read a script written by outgoing Chair of the TNGOP, Robin Smith. Just what the republican party needs, more people kicked out and stabbed in the back. How about talking to them face to face for a change? I guess you all want less Republicans instead of more so all you’ll have to do is blame everything on the Democrats and not do anything to solve our multitude of economic and social problems. You best start a list on a long sheet of paper because you are going to see Republicans falling by the wayside left and right without you doing anything further to kick anyone out. The tent just keeps getting smaller and smaller.

    Didn’t Ken Hill just praise Kent Williams for being such a good republican?
