Michael Steele went on the radio today to tell everyone to shut the fuck up. “I’m telling them and I’m looking them in the eye and say I’ve had enough of it. If you don’t want me in the job, fire me. But until then, shut up. Get with the program or get out of the way.” “Them” referring to everyone who has voiced concern that Steele is neither anticipating winning any elections nor doing anything that might accomplish this accidentally. Whatever. Steele still rates the job he’s doing as a “solid B,” which, he raves, is “not bad.” So why is everyone trying to “beat [him] up”?
Because of reasons, that’s why:
Responded Steele: “Some of my prior chairmen who are running their mouths right now — how many farm teams did you build as chairman?”
“All I’m saying is cut it out. If we have party differences that are inside the party, let’s deal with them inside the party. You don’t see the Democrats running around trying to beat up their national chairman or embarrass him.”
It will be hilarious when Michael Steele is fired later today or whenever.

Roland Burris looks pretty classy now.
“You don’t see the Democrats running around trying to beat up their national chairman or embarrass him.”
Mr. Steele, let me introduce you to Mr.s Nelson, Stupak and most of all, Lieberman.
Say, you know who else never tolerated dissent within his party?
steele’s just keeping it real, he’s taking it to the streets (where he’ll be wandering and ranting after they fire his black ass for getting all uppity. err. i mean, “eloquent”)
Juli, you’re just on fire this morning with all the posting. Is it ambition or meth? Or meth-fueled ambition?
Jeezus, sometime ya just gotta respect that guy for the shit he has to put up with every day; getting mistaken for a janitor, having his stupid ideas get voted down by people with stupider ideas, pretending to like teabaggers, &c…
I hope, for his sake, he got a little action from one or more of the interns.
[re=490668]chascates[/re]: Nice!
[re=490668]chascates[/re]: Will you still hold that opinion when he carves your quote on his crypt?
If Michael was grading out as a ‘solid W’, he wouldn’t have this problem.
that poor dog
So they are with him or against him?
You don’t see the Democrats running around trying to beat up their national chairman or embarrass him.”
The Democratic Party has a chairman? If we have a Chairman, why don’t have a plan? Goddamn, what are we paying this guy for (who is it? I bet it’s Edwards…that fucking Cocktard!)?
Brotha ain’t fixin’ to be here.
[re=490678]memzilla[/re]: Would that be Steele in Ruskie? Old Joltin’ Joe, whoa, whoa, woe.
Joe Esposito has a little inspirational advice for Chairman Steele.
“The RNC had $22.8 million in cash and no debt when Michael Steele was elected chairman at the end of January, but has since seen its cash on hand drop to less than $9 million at the end of November.”
Admittedly, the Palins and teabaggers are siphoning off much of the RNC’s traditional contributors and revenue but still, Michael You da Man! (i.e. many of the party faithful are Just Not Into sending money to a black person, OK?)
Yeah, leave him along for chrissakes. He’s an honest injun, and they ain’t easy to find in the Republican Party these days.
Bumbling Spokes-Man Pouts …oops wrong thread
When ex-MD-Lt-Governor Steele finally decides to spend more time with his family, who will be the replacement? May I make so bold as to suggest that Droopy Joe Lieberman is the obvious candidate?
Just keep choking that chicken Michael.
I rate you a solid B, too, Mr. Steele.
“B” for “buffoon.” And “bitch-slapped.” And “broke-ass” and “busted.”
Wow, this sounds like the worst episode of Sesame Street ever.
Somewhere, an asylum is missing a lunatic.
Now I want the GOP to actually LOSE seats in the midterms, just to hear what wacky rationalization MC Hummer has to offer for chumping it yet again.
“Look on the bright side, folks: now we’re more outsider-y than ever before! BOOYAH!”
Knowing the Republican Party, they’ll give him the Congressional Medal of Freedom instead.
Judging from the photo, it may take the Dog Whisperer to teach Steele about rules, boundaries and limitations.
“I’m telling them and I’m looking them in the eye and say . . .”
The embodiment of scary: a man on the radio looking me in the eye.
As Peter Schickele used to say at the end of Schickele Mix: “You’re lookin’ good!”
[re=490683]SmutBoffin[/re]: If we pray for him he might get some action from one or more of the janitors. Or at least the dog might.

Considering everyone at Wonkette would like to see him with a lifetime RNC contract, “they” probably should fire his ass, STAT.
Moo baby, moo. Is not a cow on the tracks a ruminant, elected or otherwise?
So let’s see — the Republicans with all the power and ideas are consistently trying to make their party smaller by evicting everyone who disagrees with any item on their platform — and when they see the obvious results of their strategy, they blame the impotent mouthpiece of the RNC. Keep digging guys — your Mission Accomplished banner is in the mail.
Your grandfather polished their shoes, Mike, and now you’re here to buff their turd of a party to the highest possible gloss.
You knew (or should have known) that you would simultaneously have to satisfy those who want a Jesus-’n-guns theocracy complete with a national hunting season for them homer-sexuals, and those who just want to enjoy their Goldman Sachs bonuses and moat-ringed mansions without impositions from the commoners. You also knew that they were racist, sexist, and just about every -ist that one can possibly be. And out of this churning vortex of bullshit that some of them equate with a platform, they would expect you to lead them to a majority in a country that is increasingly urban, non-white, irreligious, and insecure about their ability to earn a living.
In short, Mike, I have no sympathy for you, and I’m looking forward to seeing your party get its ass kicked up between its shoulder blades REGARDLESS of whether Obama delivers a tenth of what he said the Democrats would.
[re=490726]lulzmonger[/re]: We’re not unpopular. We are appealing to a more selective constituency.
[re=490738]Mr Blifil[/re]: Sweet.
Brother still stuck on stupid.
[re=490672]JMP[/re]:
Yeah, I spit my drink all over my monitor when I read that gem.
Honest injun?
I think he must have naked embarrassing pictures of Rush Limbaugh blowing a goat or something. That’s how he keeps his job. Or maybe Cheney blowing a goat. Also.
[re=490738]Mr Blifil[/re]: Lovin’ it. “Sinecure”- so perfect. Rhymes with with “manure”. Also.
A solid “B”! Truly off the hook, the way this GOP chair embraces mediocrity as willingly as the rest of the party does.
However, if this is simply a strategy for appealing to tea-baggers, he’ll need to bring it down to at best a C-.
Does he really think a solid B is worth something in this grade inflated world?
[re=490747]Aflac Shrugged[/re]: Well said and very helpful of you because he clearly doesn’t know how many contrary elements he has to appease.
[re=490750]comicbookguy[/re]: Have you ever considered a job in media relations?
The new GOP chairman’s blog will be called “You’re fucking out. I’m fucking in.”
[re=490682]imissopus[/re]: Jolt Cola and Cocaine. We keeps ‘em classy, here at teh Wonkett.
[re=490793]rottenart[/re]: I am inquiring about openings at BSMP.
Reminds me of Clyde, the drunk who always seemed to end up behind the wheel on our way to them okie bars. It was twelve miles on a two-lane, and Clyde often wandered into the wrong one, and he’d resent our backseat driving when that happened. Drove into the river one year after missing the bridge entire, and complained when his passengers all bailed on him. “I was taking a shortcut,” he said. “Them lily-livered absconders done cut and run …”
Michael Steele: still self-deluded enough to buy the ‘big-tent’ theory.
Forget crazy Mike Steele-how do I find the FIT peronal trainer pictured on the left?
Soon to be former Gov. Tim Kaine isn’t nearly this much fun.
What I really want to know is how he feels about the Census Form Negro Check Box.
[re=490806]comicbookguy[/re]: Careful. That’s exactly what Levi said.
[re=490839]rottenart[/re]: If you see me in Playgirl selling pistachios, then appearing in court with my lawyer Rex Long Johnson, you’ll know it all went horribly wrong.
[re=490738]Mr Blifil[/re]: we had joy we had fun, we had seasons in the sun …
[re=490738]Mr Blifil[/re]: Great stuff’n'nonsense. (Again!)
[re=490833]Radiotherapy[/re]: Yeah, and if he likes that the form makes you tell a Yo’Mama joke to prove you’re one of Them?
[re=490928]chaste everywhere[/re]: Now THAT would be funny if our favorite children’s b’day clown broke out into Yo’Mama jokes.
[re=490962]Radiotherapy[/re]: Brother’s mama still here.
[re=490737]chaste everywhere[/re]: +1 on the Schickele Mix ref.
You don’t see the Democrats running around trying to beat up their national chairman or embarrass him.”
No, they just refuse their retired dignitaries the right to meaningless titles like Surgeon General. Even when they’re DOCTORS.
[re=490738]Mr Blifil[/re]: You shouldn’t have given that up for free. Rumor has it there might still be $50,000 bouncing around the coffers. When Chairman busts that rhyme, demand yo cheddar.
Is that “solid B” scratched into his cheek backwards?
What’s great is if the GOP were to actually wise up and dump him for incompetence, the base will inject all sorts of racist rhetoric into the “discussion”, further marginalizing the party.
I guess they have to keep him forever.
[re=490726]lulzmonger[/re]: I think it’s “outsidier”
[re=490755]earnestcivilservant[/re]: He can’t have any such pictures, he’s not torn his eyeballs out.
i have a boston terrier puppy, the one he s holding is a beauty..i would vote for him!
