Here’s magnificent clown Michael Steele on the Fox News, straight up talkin’ to that Neil Cavuto about the money, baby, the GOP purse. Cavuto asks him if he will withhold giving primary campaign funds to the three Republican Senators who voted for the stimulus, and Steele replies, “Perhaps.” Just kidding, Michael Steele would never give an un-jazzed response like that. He says, “Oh, yes, I’m always open to everything, baby, absolutely.” They call it a Big Tent, motherfucker. [Greg Sargent]

Please to have a Holla Fo Dollas fundraiser?!

This clip does not include the part where Neil Cavuto talks about his bright blue scrotum.

Michael Steele is a nerd.

Zadig February 24, 2009 at 11:59 am

I love how the video description doesn’t say “Moderate Senators”, it says “traitors.”

Looking forward to Steele’s next Fox appearance in which, given the current trend, he will be wearing platform shoes, sporting an afro, and say “Yo Hannity, ya ready ta get FUNKY?”

I thought Rush was running the GOP. Now it looks like Cavuto is setting policy. Do the republicans take orders from anyone with a mic?

WalnutsIsMyCo-Pilot February 24, 2009 at 12:02 pm

If this is Steele’s idea of winning over the youth vote, then I’d like to see the non-cut-nutters out there who were actually moved enough by his “baby” speech to switch teams.

Seriously, I want to know… so that maybe *just maybe* I’m not the only one. Steele is just sooo cool, you guys. So. Cool.

So have I got the score right?

Fuck a Louisiana whore: no punishment
Try to suck a stranger’s dick in a public restroom: no punishment.
Vote to avert a Great Depression: no campaign funds for you.

Where’s a package of Oreos to throw when you need it?

Chickensmack February 24, 2009 at 12:08 pm

no campaign funds for three Republicans, for one vote? AHAHAHAHA….

I think I peed myself a little. To think that Steele will actually cut the schwing off any of his pitiful leftovers is a gross misjudgment. They have to cling desperately to every seat they have!

I can hear it now… “Arlen, Arlen… I’m gonna give you this money just because I like you. But if you ever fuck up again…”

HopeyDope February 24, 2009 at 12:09 pm

Next interview, Steele should dress up like Bootsy Collins and dance around swinging a rubber chicken.

Miller February 24, 2009 at 12:10 pm

So he’s going to withhold money for moderates, hope they get taken down in primaries by more ideologically pure Republicans, and ensure those seats get picked up by Democrats. Wouldn’t it just be easier to back Democrats? Hell, if they announce support for Democrats that just might be the kiss of death to turn people off of socialism and finally get some southern Republican idiots into some seats.

That sounds suspiciously like nuance… and Republicans don’t do nuance.

Mr Blifil February 24, 2009 at 12:15 pm

This is just a ploy to burnish his hardcore gangsta bona fides. I’m sure they’ll hug it out at a nearby Ruth’s Chris.

kudzu February 24, 2009 at 12:15 pm

Steele should be sending Truck Nutz to all Repug senators who voted for “the package”.

sezme February 24, 2009 at 12:17 pm

The RNC funds are a valuable fucking thing. You don’t just give something like that away for nothing.

proudcitizen February 24, 2009 at 12:22 pm

OREOS! like WALNUTS! only less significant.

AngryBlakGuy February 24, 2009 at 12:24 pm

…I actually thought they were kidding when they said they weren’t conservative enough! Its kinda like a drug addict thinking his problem is not having enough crack and not the fact he is using crack. Well hopefully before the next election we’ll find the republican party in some alley dead on a dirty mattress in a puddle of of their own urine/vomit/blood from an apparent overdose.

rachelv February 24, 2009 at 12:30 pm

Did Neil Cavuto mishear Steele (he responded as though Steele had said “I’m open to that baby” and not “I’m open to that, baby”) or was he trying to spare Steele embarassment by covering up his HUGE GAFFE?!?!?

PsycGirl February 24, 2009 at 12:32 pm

Susan Collins: 12 years in the Senate
Arlen Specter: 22 years in the Senate
Olympia Snowe: 6 years in the House, 14 in the Senate
Micheal Steele: RNC Chairman 25 days

Enough said.

[re=250246]Miller[/re]: It’s part of the Bush Doctrine — failure is the new success. Or success through failure. Something like that.

To quote a far more entertaining (albeit fictitious) Maryland politician: SHHHEEEEEEEEEEEEETT.

Of course they will fund a senile, drooling embarassment from Kentucky, maybe.

THE GOP WILL SUCCEED WITH MORE COWBELL. There is nothing else. Also.

GlennBecksFelch February 24, 2009 at 12:44 pm

This is a wonderful PR message for their “Base”, a black man going after two white women for being uppity.

sublicon February 24, 2009 at 12:46 pm

Cavuto was unmoved by being referred to as “baby”

Dave J. February 24, 2009 at 12:50 pm

I’m still pretty sure that “Michael Steele” is actually Larry David with some overdone self-tan, doing a gonzo bit of performance art.

Michael Steele’s RNC wallet? It’s the one that says “Bad Mother Fucker” on it.

The Rappers are falling in line to support da Steele Man. Foolishness abounds. The talking points come straight from Rush Limbaugh these days. Pathetic.

BobLoblawLawBlog February 24, 2009 at 2:00 pm

Jim, this post was perfectly written. Really. Flawless.

It has to be a Big Tent to cover the Huge Package.

Michael Steele who? Yawn…

IceCreamEmpress February 24, 2009 at 3:15 pm

Who’s the black right-wing dick
That’s a Tom to all the hicks?
STEELE!
You damn right!

Who is the man that would risk his neck
For some rich white man
STEELE!
Can you dig it?

Who’s the cat who’ll be a clown
When there’s media around?
STEELE!
Right On!

They say he’s a bad mother
SHUT YOUR MOUTH!
I’m just talkin’ ’bout Steele.
THEN WE CAN DIG IT!

He’s a complicated man
And no one understands him but Rush Limbaugh
MIKE STEELE!

mintvagoo February 24, 2009 at 3:19 pm

Steele looks like Shock G (Humpty Hump) of Digital Underground.

“Im always open to anything baby, absolutely!”

I thought the GOP was trying to LESS gay.

Pragmatist February 24, 2009 at 4:11 pm

God Bless Michael Steele!!!!
When the Republicans eliminate their few remaining moderates and the Democrats pick up a dozen house seats and 3 Seante seats in 2010, guess who will replace him?????
Alan Keyes.

Uncle Bubba February 24, 2009 at 4:24 pm

Does McSteele go down low?? George Bush did and lots of folk say he is the best ever. Is McSteele interested in a Mike Meyers film?? I’m sure there’s a character in the wait for him. Will he team up with McVick and open a football pro shop and dogstyle salon?? George Bush is looking for a job, he could be the greeter for the Down Low Dogstyle Pro Shop. Hey baby, that sounds groovy.

Bruno February 24, 2009 at 7:01 pm

Yes! Punish them, make them suffer & cry. I’ll bet Barry would be glad to provide $$$ if they come over to the other side. But, please we don’t want no Vitters or Saxby’s

ucanthandlethetruth February 26, 2009 at 2:43 pm

well since you mention it, Mr. Steele is a dead ringer for HUMPTY
from Digital Underground’s 90′s hip hop hit, “THE HUMPTY DANCE”…
go check it out on youtube….
