Michael Steele Buries Rush Incident By Talking About It Some More, On Teevee

Here's Michael Steele on the Today show this morning, talking about his child fight with Rush Limbaugh about whether or not the GOP's stated interest is for Obama's policies, and therefore the entire nation/global economy, to fail immediately. Tough question! But, as Michael Steele says, "That's the nature of this job, baby." Hooray! Huh? WHAT?

Also in Steele/Limbaugh news, America's favorite online toilet paper, The Politico , wrote a piece today -- "J-Mart" on the byline, natch -- about how making Limbaugh the de facto leader of the Republican party is a SECRET PLOT by the White House -- the Obama White House -- to make Republicans look... foolish!

The main Obama White House operatives in this case are Paul Begala and James Carville.

It's a Scoop, America! WIN THE MORNING & THE AFTERNOON & THE EVENIN'TIME.
