OUCH! Race is the Only Thing Helping Steele

Race is the Only Thing Helping Steele


Joshua Green: "Michael Steele told ABC News that racism lies behind the torrent of criticism he's received pretty much since becoming RNC chairman. Let's get something straight: Michael Steele has plenty of problems, but his race isn't one of them. Steele is hapless, solipsistic, and incompetent. When he isn't embarrassing his party with his personal antics, or his staff's, he's setting it up for failure by driving away its top fundraisers and not keeping pace with Democrats. It's impossible to imagine his magisterial display of buffoonery going unpunished in almost any circumstance -- but it is going unpunished, and Steele appears to be in no danger of losing his job. Far from being a problem, his race is all that's standing between Steele and a pink slip."

1. Agree!

2. It has never bothered them before ~

I am African American and they have used him and he has used them.

IMO,Teele has the goods on somebody ery high up in the Party.

He should have never been hired much less kept this long.

3. And it's not so much even "race" as it is a really bad, modernized, minstrel song and dance...

.... like a 21st Century Amos and Andy.

Word ..... to ya mutha.

4. GOP Karma. Like it wasn't transparent what they were attempting...

when they hired the man.

[craigmatic]

5. This is so ironic because they've fallen into the very trap that they accuse dems of being in all

the time. They hate so called affirmative action but went and openly did it themselves. Now they won't fire him because he's black and they're afraid that he'll call them racist for it. This is both sad and very stupid.

6. another hypocritical thing to add to the list.

[MadMaddie]

7. I think it's Hillarious that the RNC has screwed themselves

into a corner because they were trying to get someone black to compete with President Obama. Now that they have no use for Steele they can't get rid of him because of the very fact he is black and he truely is incompetent.



Ha..ha..ha.. they never, ever conduct risk anlaysis on their decisions. Always knee jerk and short sigted.


:rofl: :popcorn: :rofl:

8. Now I wonder if the RNC is going to call themselves on playing the race card.

Lord knows, each of those Dittoheads from Rush Limbaugh has been using it enough against folks of color whenever racism is called out. And since Steele subscribes to a group of people who claim they "don't see race", he's a hypocrite when he tries to use race in this instance to cover his incompetent and foolish behavior for the RNC.

Steele, that's what you get for signing the contract in blood with the devil. You are a stupid fool for doing so.
Don't cry when people are pointing and laughing at your buffoonery.

9. Ouch ouch ouch.. it is tough to be Steele.. that is for sure..

[old mark]

10. Hey, he is a REPUBLICAN - Hapless and incompetent should fit right in!

They really hate him because he does not save them from their own stupidity, but he is certainly one of the gang in the GOP!
He is a great asset to Democrats, too.

11. Deserve each other. Not as if they didn't know what

they were getting Before selecting him. Thought he was strange during my high school years and now I know why.

[Rosa Luxemburg]

12. The Republicans are kind of stuck with him

unless he flies in a small plane

[progressoid]

13. He's one of the best fundraisers the DNC has ever had.
