DAILY CALLER
— ‘That’s Not An Answer’: Reporter Presses Psaki On Biden’s Support Of Lifting Abortion Restrictions – NICOLE SILVERIO
(COMMENT: Political parties exist to help elect candidates who can and will defend and advance their platform. The Republican Party platform is conservative. I should write a book about those who have blamed me the most for losses that Republican candidates on ballots in my precinct have suffered since 2000. They blame the questions that I have asked candidates at press conferences, TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois events, and Illinois Center Right Coalition (ICRC) events. In my roles as the GOPUSA Illinois Editor since 2000, as the TAPROOT chairman 2005-2012, and as an ICRC Steering Committee member 2003-2007, I have asked many candidates many questions. Most commonly, I have asked them if they will defend and advance the following planks in the Republican Party platform if elected: individual responsibility, traditional marriage/family, right to life, immigration, illegal drugs, Second Amendment, and/or equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving). All my critics/opponents, their operatives, andtheir dupes reject some, reject most, or reject all of the aforesaid planks.)
