Bible Study With Erick Erickson
from Whiskey Fire

Erick Erickson of Red State has taken his Peter Principle and hung it out for all to see, together. He is sad because "All of us, every single person regardless of political persuasion who reads this, have a tendency to deny our friends and fellow travelers at times."

Peter, under pressure and fear, denied Christ not just once, but three times. Peter, though, feared death. The strain on Peter was great. The rest of us, though, typically fear the opinions of others.Thus did the cock crow. Let those "moderates" who have denied Rush et al. feel duly ashamed, for they have made the Entire Conservative Movement seem as a Flock of Ugly Ducklings. Yea, those who would deny Rush only appear to be "fellow travellers" and so it is THEY who must be denied, like it says in the Bible somewhere.
There are those who like it when we feel guilty for associating with someone. More troubling, in the conservative movement and in the greater right-of-center coalition, there are many, many fellow traveller who would rather spend their time throwing their own under the bus than fighting the left.

The incidents of late with Rush Limbaugh, Mark Levin, Dick Cheney, and others is why I raise this. Putting it bluntly, were these guys on the left, their fellow leftists would at best be cheering them on and at worst silently nodding along. There wouldn’t be any on that side rushing to the nearest microphone to condemn them.
