Well, maybe HE has health care…
Both sides speaking out of the same mouth? Did you mean ass?
Obviously Obama reneged on his pledge of bipartisanship because conservatives are still calling him a communist.
Does Steele even listen to himself?
RNC benefits must suck these days. Steele should have seen a doctor when he was in Hawaii.
I would have mailed Chuck Todd a dollar if he’d played the race card right there.
Good God, It’s like a bad SNL skit. Which these days is redundant.
What’s that Bojangles?
He needs to wave his hands around and move his head more while on TV.
Steele is smart and handsome and would make a fine addition to our list or regional Hooters managers. …I started drinking early today.
Sometmes a newsguy or girl will ask the right question… and then nod back off.
NEGRO: “This whole dog and cow show that we’re about to witness today is something that should’ve been killed a year ago when the administration first tried to get it on track.”
“You have both sides speaking out of the same mouth here.” Hard to argue with that one.
Blue Steele.
I love the way this guy is still employed.
[re=520165]Extemporanus[/re]: cow and train show?
He’s getting better. A few months ago, he would have just said, “I’m rubber, you’re glue. . .”
It’s all Obama’s fault; the Republicans have been so nice and willing to work with him but he just flatly refuses to listen, and lies about their health care proposals.
Unfazed by facts, unembarrassed by willful ignorance, unmoved by logic; the Right marches on….
[re=520174]Sweet Baby Cheeses[/re]: I pulled a cow train back in college, and twenty years later I’m still queefing milk bubbles.
Moo moo, baby! MOO MOO!
Because I’m old, fat and Caucasian (and I registered R once so I could vote against RayGuhn in a primary), Chairman Steele sends me mail all the time, more than a credit card company even. The latest barrage is a Census of a select few, so that they will know which lies to tell in my district next time around. But, of course I saw right through this, a census is a tally of everyone not a select few. I fill them out anyways and send ‘em back, now they have at least one outlier to throw out.
If I had anything to say about it, I’d damn near give in on the whole idea of universal coverage if it would guarantee that Steele would have to go without health care. If anyone deserves his fate to be in the hands of a death panel, it’s that douchenozzle.
[re=520186]Extemporanus[/re]: ALL DIE
Since Steele saying something idiotic isn’t shocking, the more shocking part of the clip is that Chuck Todd actually pushed back on something.
Now I know why the GOP chose Steele to chairman. He can say all sorts of ridiculous things and no one can see him blush when people call bullshit on him
That Chuck Todd is all “white man gettin’ all ghetto-handsie” with his protestation. Chairman is not swayed by this ploy.
Also, would really prefer to see the Chairman wearing a real sharkskin suit, if you know what I mean.
Is Michael Steele and Montel Williams the same person? Has anyone seen them in the same room together?
Shorter Michael Steele: Yea, well, YO MAMA.
[re=520161]donner_froh[/re]: He needs to be in the same room with Bobby Jindal, and they can sway around in sync. (Or out of.) Must be something that makes those guys nervous?
Perhaps if last year’s summit had been in that hip-hop speech Steele wants to bring to suburbia, he’d remember it better.
Obama: Fo shizzle, my homies the Americans needs them some medicine, bitches!
Boehner: We feel ya, blood, but whatcha gonna do?
Obama: I’m gonna get all up in yo bidness, Creamsicle! Score me a healthcare bill and shit!
Steele: Oh snap! You did not just bring that shit all up in here Mr. President, yo!
I’m surprised Steele didn’t remember the previous healthcare summit — because I remember his comprehensive solution from back then: “Fix it.” If only we had listened.
Wait…did he just completely reverse the point of his criticism within the span of one answer? I can’t rationally accept that this is really happening.
I get it now. Steele is the AntiObama, similarly pigmented but stupid. Just in case people were to get the wrong idea about Negros from listening to Barry.
Wouldn’t “both sides speaking out of the same mouth” be the definition of bipartisanship?
[re=520215]bitchincamaro[/re]: If the GOP finds a Chairman Koji character from ninkyō eiga then we are in serious trouble. Junichirō Koizumi could make this comedy script sound cynical.

Steele must have forgotten that the Reps don’t want Americans to have health care. Deminted made it quite clear that for the Dems to fail on this, it would be Obama’s Waterloo. Maybe Steele just isn’t an ABBA fan…
[re=520279]Sleeves[/re]: OMG. Best, least guilt-inducing, greatest time-consuming online dictionary. Ever. Thx.
[re=520193]Pithaughn[/re]: Somehow I got on their list and when I get stuff I always return their postage paid return envelopes stuffed to capacity with scrap paper and/or porn. There is something so satisfying about doing that.
Michael Steele: Great GOP Chair, or Greatest GOP Chair?
[re=520262]Ducksworthy[/re]: I never really stopped to consider the relative brilliance of that as a tool in motivating the Republican base.
“Right Now: An 11-Step Program for Defeating the Obama Agenda” (Rev. Ed.)
*****
[re=520262]Ducksworthy[/re]: Round these parts, we don’t judge people by the color of their skin. Just ask John Boehner.
******
[re=520287]Lionel Hutz Esq.[/re]: And Mikey has how many years left as chairman? When he leaves, the RNC might have to retire his clown shoes.
[re=520216]GOPCrusher[/re]: I thought he was the same person as Lexington Steele.
[re=520322]Red Zeppelin[/re]: “We remain deeply disappointed with the knowledge that Michael Steele and Lex Steele are in fact different persons. We remain optimistic that our Mr. Steele can rise to the occasion and grow into the role.”
–Mitch McConnell
Who is this Chuck Todd? Every time I turn on MS/NBC I only see people running around in snow.
He’s a disgrace to his father, George The Animal Steele.
{chortle, chortle} Dance, Sambo, Dance! {snort}
[re=520262]Ducksworthy[/re]: I prefer to think of him as BizarrObama. Like Bizarro Superman, only without the crazy strength.
I’m reminded of when Bob Dole simultaneously griped that “there’s no crisis in healthcare” as he whined “where’s the outrage?” People were not sufficiently disgusted upon reading detailed descriptions of the curvature of Bill Clinton’s Mr. Happy, according to Bob.
needs more cowbell, baby
The only reason Steele has a job is that the GOP said, “Hey, the Democrats have a black man. We need one. Call J.C. Watts.”
Well, Watts was tired of being their black man, so they had to do a nationwide search. The three finalists were Steele, the famous recluse Sammy Davis III and Sean Hannity, who said, “Hey, I’m black Irish.”
SD3 turned them down and Hannity refused to wear blackface, so Steele got the job.
Nigga please!
How come no matter what Steele has to say, all I hear is “Br’er Rabbit and the Tarbaby”?
[re=520193]Pithaughn[/re]: Make that two outliers. I’m a Maryland Democrat and the silly bastard sent me a questionair. I am still working on suitable snarky answers before sending it back.
[re=520186]Extemporanus[/re]: lol what frat.
[re=520204]Hooray For Anything[/re]: push back? and not on a penis…shocking indeed!
[re=520262]Ducksworthy[/re]: Bizarobama would fit better.
[re=520215]bitchincamaro[/re]: Sharkskin suit? I think a chicken costume with the big foam head would be more appropriate.
