[secondwind]

[fascisthunter]

1. that's right you Wall Street Shill

tell Americans you are more interested in fighting Dems than cleaning up the mess you fuckheads left behind intentionally.

[polichick]

2. Not even Republicans listen to Steele - might as well be venting in the shower.

[Parker CA]

3. Well, he's got that 22% base strongly behind him. The guy sounds like a buffoon.

[no_hypocrisy]

4. Michael Steele should be watching out for friendly fire, not Dems and/or Obama.

[benld74]

5. YET another war the GOP will not win

[MrSlayer]

6. This is one of the most ridiculous speeches I've ever heard.

Delusional, dishonest, ridiculous. Typical.

[opihimoimoi]

7. Sounds like 43 people in the crowd...

[Patsy Stone]

8. The "Democrat" Party

That just makes them look ignorant, and not at all as clever as they think it does.

[jenmito]

23. He's trying to show he got the memo.

What a loser.

[jefferson_dem]

9. He just said "Truth to Power".

Insufferable lameness ...

[SeaLyons]

18. Wow...that speech was just completely crazy....n/t

[Parker CA]

10. "This change, my friends, is being delivered in a tea bag. And that's a great thing." LOL HAHAHAHA

[jefferson_dem]

11. Wow. Is this an SNL skit?

What a fucking clown.

[SeaLyons]

13. can you believe this idiot??? hahaha..

what a complete joke.

[tridim]

15. I got a good laugh out of that one too.

Although he should have said, "Delivered in a tea bag, and it feels really good!".

[jenmito]

26. All Rachel and Keith have to do is play that clip over and over and over.

:rofl:

[Parker CA]

29. That would be hilarious. Lose the normal intros to both shows and loop this comment. What a tool.

[jenmito]

32. Yup. And this rebuts all the RWers who claim the DEMS. came up with that "vulgar term"!

:rofl:

[janx]

39. You're making this up, right?

He didn't actually say this...?

[jenmito]

41. Rachel played the clip about 4 times with the title, "HE SAID IT (NOT ME)"

:rofl:

[Yavin4]

42. Wait...Was That Michael Steele or

Michael Scott?

[S n o w b a l l]

12. "Delivered in a teabag is a wonderful thing"

:rofl: I can't believe this!

[Parker CA]

14. Preaching about not looking back, looking forward, now he's quoting Raygun. This guy is a toolshed.

[tridim]

17. And always twirling, twirling, twirling towards freedom!

[jenmito]

16. "President Obama campaigned on cutting taxes for 95% of working families. But now, TRUST me,

he will be raising taxes to pay for his massive programs." (paraphrased) So in other words, he hasn't broken his promise, but we should trust STEELE that Obama WILL raise them. :rofl:

[Patsy Stone]

19. Next time, he should just tell the onion belt story.

:eyes:

[Gidney N Cloyd]

21. Well, it WAS the style at the time...

[Patsy Stone]

28. Hey, Mike...

Can you give me five bees for a quarter?

[Parker CA]

20. So MSNBC airs this entire moran's rant and then follows it up with a blowhard repub talker. Classy.

[tridim]

24. Daytime MSNBC is no better than Faux.

Considering the "journalist" is the wife of a BushCo crony who basically caused all our major economic problems today.

[jenmito]

31. Chris Shayes-"I HEAR that when the Republicans meet with Obama they don't get to give ANY

input." Yeah, right. You're told?

[Parker CA]

22. So, one repub moran talker and then MSNBC switches topics. Ohhh evil librul media. Such BS.

[jenmito]

25. "The honeymoon's over." Days ago-"It was good love shared between two brothahs."

:rofl:

[jefferson_dem]

27. On Obama: "He's a great orator. His campaign style is wonderful... He's young, he's cool, he's hip..

"The president is personally popular... Folks like him.. He's a great orator. His campaign style is wonderful... He's young, he's cool, he's hip, he's got a good looking family... what's not to like?"

[Clio the Leo]

44. I half-way expected him to say, "He has lovely eyes and a great smile, he smells good...." NT

[LittleBlue]

30. Steele is a joke. So glad the wingers picked him and not someone intelligent

We might have had a fight on our hands. Guess not.

[Doctor_J]

33. Hopefully the Dems will take this to heart and start firing back

but I doubt it.

[jenmito]

34. MSNBC is pretty much ridiculing him. They've been playing a string of clips from today's speech

all day. And laughing.

[mscuedawg]

35. Class and dignity...guess that rules out Rush Limberger...

Cant WAIT for Keith and Rachel after this one!! :D

[struggle4progress]

36. ... Declaring "the honeymoon is over," Republican National Committee chairman Michael Steele called

for Republicans to start attacking President Obama directly and stop focusing on lesser known figures such as House Speaker Nancy Pelosi. "We've seen strategists writing memos and doing briefings urging that Republicans avoid confronting the president," he said in a speech at a convention center in Oxon Hill. "Steer clear of frontal assaults on his administration. They suggest we should go after Nancy Pelosi, whom nobody likes, or Harry Reid, who nobody knows" ...

[Uncle Joe]

37. It's about damn time the honeymoon ended,

the Republican Party has been screwing the American People for the past eight years, that's the longest honeymoon in history!

[janx]

40. He is the master of cliche.

If I had the time or the inclination, I'd count his cliches...but I don't. :rofl:

But I will say this: "Toiling in the vineyards" has to be one of the funniest!

[Puzzler]

38. How dare Obama and the Democrats govern!

I mean... the nerve of those guys!

;)

[spanone]

43. steele, the gift that just keeps on giving and giving and giving.....

[Orsino]

45. Steele declares war on his Republican opponents.

He's discovering that just adding the word "baby" to old talking points won't suffice. That carried him for a few months. If he wants to remain a GOP leader, he's going to have to learn the art of testosterone-laden bluster.
