This morning on ABC's This Week, GOP chairman Michael Steele declined to criticize Rand Paul's position the Civil Rights Act. He told Jake Tapper that while he's not "comfortable with it, " it's Paul's "philosophical position," shared by many in his movement and thus he has no right to denounce it.
So why wasn't the next question: are you comfortable with people who have that "philosophical position" serving in government? Rand Paul can believe in the right to discriminate or flying space monkey's from Mars if he wants to. But if he does, he's not fit to hold public office. That's the point.
