Targeting poor defenseless d.c. as a sort of showcase for this year s version of isn t murphy brown awful for being a single mom. for this year s version of aids is god s punishment. for this year s version of hate thy neighbor, circa rnc 1992. what s being told to the country at large about republican politics now, by the beltway media and by republicans themselves, is that the culture wars are over and now republicans are all about the economy. when they talk to their own conservative audiences, though, and when they act, it is clear that the culture war is alive and well. i ll give you one last example. in march 2009 rnc chairman michael steele told gq magazine this on the issue of abortion. he said, you can choose life or you can choose abortion. i think that s an individual choice. now, if the culture wars are over, then expressing a rather libertarian down the middle view about abortion rights like that, a view that s pretty much in keeping with where the american ....

Ripple if the culture wars are over. but one way you can tell the culture wars are still on in republican politics is that when michael steele as rnc chairman said what he said about abortion all hell broke loose. when you talked, for example, about abortion rights, it was one of the issues where people said michael steele s talking policy and that upsets republicans who are working on policy, you said something that you thought about whether about abortion being an individual choice. were you reined in on that by other republicans was i reined in? i was rained on. i was rained on. what is it that we don t understand about republican politics right now that we ought to? joining us now once again, provided he hasn t bolted from his seat upon seeing my introduction, is former republican party chairman michael steele. michael, thank you for joining us again. it s good to be with you, rachel. what am i going to do with you? i don t even know where to begin with your opening. th ....

Looked at just one side of this. you also have a cultural discussion, if you will, within the democratic party. i mean, you ve got, you know, your blue dog democrats, and we saw with a number of members of congress, house and senate last year, sort of pining and wrenching themselves back on the question of abortion and what they were going to do on the democratic side as well because those issues are now closer to people at home, being discussed, whether it s gay marriage, whether it s abortion, whatever it happens to be. and i think in one sense that s actually a little bit more healthy for the country because the national discussion is about jobs, it is about the economy, but closer to home people are dealing on a case-by-case basis with these other issues. i mean, john boehner making d.c. school vouchers his signature issue on state of the union night, john boehner is from ohio. how can it be a localization of the school vouchers issue for him to be deciding that for d.c.? the rep ....
