Seems Michael Steele just can't quit talking. The beleagured GOP party figure-head is back on the airwaves and he charasticly makes another gaff. This time he misquotes the First Ammendment to the Constitution. You know the one about freedom of the press, religion and freedom to assemble?
Well on Bill Bennett's radio show today he agreed with a caller who said that trying to tax Wall Street Bailout recipients was against the first ammendment, "the first amendment…specifically states that a law cannot be passed to specifically target a person or a group of people.”
Well actually that's way off the mark. Perhaps he was referring to Article I of the U.S. Constitution which bans bills of attainder. Or perhaps he was just carried away with the moment. Either way, he continues to be an easy target for those who want him gone.
