“SEE?” says the Republican National Committee. I hope people are paying attention because I think this is pretty much how baseball got ruined, too.
Michael the Magic Negro?
What the fuck does:
“We’re going to say to friend and foe alike: ‘We want you to be a part of us, we want you to with be with us.’ And for those who wish to obstruct, get ready to get knocked over,” Steele said.
Even mean?
It means another eight or nine seat pickup in the Senate for Democrats in 2010.
Yeah, it’s funny. There was some guy on Hardball trying to claim Obama was being obstructionist when their leader is saying things like that.
The current Republican party reminds me of a drunk who hasn’t hit bottom yet.
Hint: The answer you’re looking for isn’t at the bottom of the bottle you’re drinking from.
Michael Steele is someone I best remember for trying to package himself as a Democrat during his run for office. His color scheme was blue with no party identification at all and campaign workers even got caught busing homeless and poor folks to the polls under the impression they were voting for a Democrat.
Yeah, he’s exactly what the GOP needs.
Is Mr. Steele magical…?
The GOP is still a sinking ship. Steele is just more of the same and definitely doesn’t inspire any confidence.
The Republican party suffers from collective schizophrenia.
Isn’t Steele the most moderate of the people who were in the running?
On the surface, it seems like a good sign for the GOP - it seems like an effort to steer back towards the middle.
Note to the GOP. Obama didn’t win because he is black.
he’s pretty corrupt. he’s the one that tried to pass himself off as democrat on the ballot back in 2006.
Y’know, in a movie like “Oh Brother Where Art Thou”, you laugh at lines like “We’ll get us a midget…” not because of the ridiculousness of the line but because deep in your soul you know such sentiment rings true.
The Tricky version is better
Just sayin.
Is there no end to your villainy?
Nope. I am thinking about growing in a handlebar mustache for twirling.

Dear Mr D.
In our opinion, we are suckers.
We are most interested in having you for our army, or whatever. We are aware that, in our visualisation of your giving ‘a damn’, you are most likely to say ‘never’. This is possibly due to our being a land that never ourselves gave a damn about a brother, like you or yourself. This is because we never did.
While it may not occur to you at this very minute, please be aware that we, the aforementioned ’suckers’, have authority in this matter. We are aware of your concerns vis-a-vis sitting in a state pen. However we would point out that as the draft is not legal, while we might criticise you for some crime, the time we will have you cold sweatin’ in your cell is in fact zero days, and it might indeed be said that you are making an enormous fuss about nothing whatsoever. Your claim that as a black man, you can never be a veteran is also open to question: our records indicate that it did little to stop Major-General Colin Powell, or indeed that bloke who was mates with Forrest Gump.
While you may wish to get out, to the point of contemplatin’ a plan on the cell floor, be aware than this thought has in fact been thought before, and was at that point judged unneccessary, since we are not actually arresting you or charging you with anything, and the rest of your song is in reality a feeble paranoid fantasy. Your security, or indeed that of the ‘First World’, is unaffected.
Yours faithfully,
The Government.P.S.: Please stop calling yourselves “Public Enemy No.1″. Our records indicate that you are in fact Public Enemy No. 278,882, and that only for nicking a large clock from a school area.
