Steele takes down his blog.

Steele takes down his blog.
In recent days, RNC chairman Michael Steele has been “getting ripped apart” by conservative commenters on his blog, in response to his comments originally criticizing Rush Limbaugh. (He has since backed away from them.) Andrew Perez on The New Argument notes that in the past few days, Steele’s blog has been disabled, and now just redirects to the RNC homepage. Perez writes, “One has to wonder if the RNC has taken the site down in response to the attacks being launched there by the conservative base.” According to the Google cache version of the site, the last post on Steele’s blog was published on March 1.

MICHAEL STEELE, you let yourself get played like Atari – My bad that went out in the ’80s. GOOD BYE TO YOUUUUUU. GOOD BYE TO YOU!
March 6th, 2009 at 7:28 pmWell Archie B,
Maybe they were removed before the world could see. You know how the GOPers like to cover up the truth! Maybe the socialists or the ghosts and ghoblins stole them…?
LMMFAO!
March 6th, 2009 at 7:31 pmIf he took down his blog and bowed to Limbaugh then he’s spineless.
If he wanted to change the party, and show true leadership, he’d have told them to stick it.
Now he’s just another one of Limbaugh’s cuckolds.
March 6th, 2009 at 7:35 pmYo Archie nobrains.
Please explain then why they took it down huh asshat?
You really are a tool
March 6th, 2009 at 7:38 pmSo for real Archie…

Its why he never made it to TV and only has one sided daitribes on his radio show.
March 6th, 2009 at 8:07 pmThat’s too bad. I enjoyed the one post where one of the bloggers called Rush Limbaugh a ‘big fat idiot’ in defense of Steele!
March 6th, 2009 at 8:14 pmAnd Archie B? Those of us who spend a lot time going after you wingers READ THE BLOG POSTS OVER ON THE RNC and know exactly what was being said about Steele….and of Rush (though, most of the posts were in support of Rush and not of Steele).
March 6th, 2009 at 8:16 pmExcept for the fact that there was a blog, and now there’s not…
March 6th, 2009 at 8:18 pmJust checked out the links, and one comment reads as follows:

Why would President Obama want to talk to a puffed out, washed-up, junkie with ties to mysterious romps with men to far away islands?
WHY YOU FAT PIG!
March 6th, 2009 at 8:24 pmMr. Obomber, I realize that it’s Friday evening and you’re looking to kick back with some Robitussin and all, but please try not to drink and blog, okay? When you post recognizable sentences, it makes it easier to see what you’re driving at, and where you’ve gone wrong.
When you post comments like this, all we can do is giggle at your incoherence, and hope you’re not driving anywhere for the next twelve hours.
March 6th, 2009 at 8:25 pmWhy do you ask?
March 6th, 2009 at 8:25 pmI’ve seen bits of that before, but this whole clip is choice!
A notable part is when Rush says he reflects a majority view, when in the audience those who applaud him look like about 10% of the total.
Then he crowds the camera (reducing the visual of most of the audience not clapping him) and claims an instant ‘movement’ had somehow appeared to ’shut him up’!
March 6th, 2009 at 8:27 pmAfter 1 challenge, one supporting voice and more opposition noises than there were of support.
Ouch!

Mmmk, run with that one son. Lets see how it works out.
March 6th, 2009 at 9:39 pmIt’s all just jockeying for positions in the circular firing squad. The GOP base has been reduced to three camps.
1. Retarded Psychochristians(TM) who are convinced Jesus will kill them if the “Libruls” succeed in fixing this mess.
2. Nazi wannabees who worship Lush and the other screechers all while hoping for an opportunity to try their luck in a post-apocalyptic dystopia.
3. Corporate neocons who con the first two groups into voting in favor of raping the American economy by a chosen few.
Of course, like any leader of morons, the Wall Street neocons will manipulate the fools into taking all the real damage.
March 6th, 2009 at 9:44 pmWhat was unintelligent about that?
Random noticed a marked deterioration in the coherence of your posts, and he expressed concern.

I was some friends down on the channel between Alameda and Bay Farm Island (esatern SF Bay…) last Saturday at mid-tide. From the seawall at the south end of Crown Beach to the Bay Farm Island Bridge is prolly 3/4 of a mile. I feel safe saying we say saw prolly 5,000 to 8,000 birds.
Incredibly cool… curlews, godwits, willits, black-bellied plovers, black turnstones, and more sand pipers than you could possibly count. One flock that took off had mebbe 500 to 700 sand pipers in it.
They’ll be headed back up to Alaska soon…

March 6th, 2009 at 9:54 pmTRoS, point taken.
March 6th, 2009 at 9:55 pmAdvertiser dollars do not equal political wins. Limbaugh is a prime example of that. Losses in 2006 and 2008, lots of losses.

March 6th, 2009 at 9:59 pmI get so tired of hearing that just because some (R) pundit, talking head, or political guru has x amount of viewers it means they are correct and will create a win for the GOP.
Yet they still go with that misconception, its why Steele should never have apologized to Rush because Rush doesnt actually help the GOP win. He makes advertising dollars getting people to listen to his tripe.
March 6th, 2009 at 10:01 pmDid Ann Coulters books, O’Reilly, Hannity, Limbaugh, Beck, Savage, Kristol, Krauthammer or any of the rest create more wins for the GOP in 2006 or 2008?
The answer is no.
So, how, Fred Gavin, is Limbaugh going to make any change?
He cant, its the same old schtick and they think that more schtick will work now?
March 6th, 2009 at 10:04 pmI can deal. We DO have standards to maintain. That’s why I checked my initial impulse to observe the surge in Wet-nap™ sales, because I realized that, as you say, they don’t bother with napkins either.

They don’t have anything else to go on. When every last, single solitary issue or problem you touch turns to Abs0lute Cheney on you, you HAVE to go w/ imaginary victories, like BillO’s stirring victory in The War on Christmas, or his enormously successful Boycott of the French, or the overwhelming dangers gay marriage or flag-burning represent for the country.
It’s the same w/ all those “red-hot” conservative bestsellers pushed onto the Times’ best sellers lists by mysterious bulk purchases. And now these amazing ratings… the whole dang world is turning conservative on us right before our eyes…
March 6th, 2009 at 10:07 pmDoes anyone have a theory that explains the absolute weirdness that the new trolls are exhibiting these days? Between the ones who are taking on screennames of repulsive 70’s tv characters, to fake soldiers, it’s just really odd. I didn’t think trolls could be more unhinged than bigfoot, or that crazy baglady from FLA who claimed to be a stay at home entrepreneur/lawyer/housemom, or the Asbergers Syndrome dude.
It’s like their whole world has just exploded on them and they really are living in an alternate world.
March 6th, 2009 at 10:08 pmX, I keep asking our right-wing friends why they feel compelled to crow about the ratings of their heroes. Maybe fred garvin will take some time otu from servicing the lonely females of the Quad Cities area to respond.
fred, is it your contention that the ratings success of your faves like Beck and Rush demonstrates some sort of triumph in the marketplace of ideas?
March 6th, 2009 at 10:08 pmWho made that claim? I sure as hell didn’t. Parse, much?
Its a question, see the question mark? That thing that looks like this ?

Alas. It’s chronic and, usually, incurable between adolescence and dotage. All we can do is humor the poor victim and hope he elects to forgo his right to vote.

March 6th, 2009 at 10:12 pmI own half dozen or so feeders currently in my backyard. Same vicinity as TRoS mentioned. I am amazed at the abundant wildlife we have in and around the Greater Bay Area. My wife and I both believe in helping support our “visitors”(natives I mean)but you know what I mean. She is the one that could tell you all the varieties of species are in this Urban area. I just know they are not very good at house keeping :-)
It would be a shame to have programs that help support our natural wildlife get underfunded or completely cut.
X, I keep asking our right-wing friends why they feel compelled to crow about the ratings of their heroes. -RTWL
I could see if we were arguing advertiser dollars/profitability but from a political standpoint the correlation is non-existant. Its mind boggling, like boneless chicken.
March 6th, 2009 at 10:12 pmAnd what conclusion do you draw from this?
is this a triumph for conservative rhetoric in the marketplace of ideas? If not, what is the significance?

If you’d really care to discuss this seriously, feel free to. From the quality of the comments you’ve been making, I doubt if you have anything of value to ADD to the conversation.
So… how did Grey pollute the Bay?
March 6th, 2009 at 10:18 pmYeah fred, but it was awesome how ronnie reagan beat up those dirty hippies, however, that was then and this is now, for those of us in the reality based community….

This is really an incredible place to live.
fred, I know you’re not avoiding my question… you’re probably just preoccupied with that system on trusses on which you rely.
But when you get around to it, could you explain the significance that you see in Glenn Beck’s ratings on Faux News? Do you see it as a triumph of conservative rhetoric in the marketplace of ideas? Or rather as a sad and lonely wank-fest for dispirited wingnuts looking for solace?
Thanks.

Well… I’m having a conversation w/ some of the other posters here I know about something that mutually interests us… birds.
Do I need to give any other explanation?
So… what were you getting at w/ the “newshounds” comment? It just didn’t make any sense.
March 6th, 2009 at 10:23 pmOff topic:
Yes, spring is happening. The mud is knee deep, under the snow and there’s three inches of water in my garage. The local geese are horny and the first baby bunnies of the year have made their appearance. I expect the first robins within a week or so.
And, to get back near the topic, perhaps the most hopeful sign about the new Administration is the return of science, logic, and intellectual curiosity to American government.
It’s entirely possible that history will judge Bushco’s crimes against all things intellectual and environmental to be the worst.
The precious time wasted trying to debunk environmentalism, and anything the simple-minded can’t wrap their stunted intellects around, is nearly enough to throw me into a rage.
March 6th, 2009 at 10:23 pmIncredibly cool… curlews, godwits, willits, black-bellied plovers, black turnstones, and more sand pipers than you could possibly count. One flock that took off had mebbe 500 to 700 sand pipers in it.

Geez, fred… have you been saving all that info just for this moment?
Grey has been gone for quite a while now. Are you saying you’re one of those furious voters who wanted him gone because of his weak record on environmental issues?
Fred!!! You’re on of us!!! Welcome aboard. Nice to see ya.
Personally, I’m glad to see Chas Hurwitz FINALLY got his Cheney beaten like a drum for him and was literally bum rushed outta the state.
So, fred… what’s yer favorite birding spot?

I see your taking my advice on runnin with it huh?

March 6th, 2009 at 10:30 pmUNLESSS…the GOP got news of the FBI investigation into Steele, and took the site down in forebearance. Hmmm, what about that???
March 6th, 2009 at 10:31 pmLooks to me like ol’ fred has copied-and-pasted a list of complaints against former Gov. Davis, without attribution.
Otherwise, why would he compose them all in present tense (or, rather, present perfect), and mention “the first two years of his administration” when Davis served over four and hasn’t been in power for over five years?
March 6th, 2009 at 10:31 pm* Johnson: 4.1 percent
* Nixon/Ford

I was told by an expert birder it was prolly a juvie.
March 6th, 2009 at 10:32 pmFrom the GOP side, Rep. Jeb Hensarling of Texas said the legislation was “going to grow the government 8.3 percent

Yeah… I noticed that, ralphie. Wherever he got that list, it’s at least that old.
The piss-poor treatment people have been giving the Bay has been going on since the mid-19th century. That’ why the marsh mouse issue is about a lot more than just a mouse.
Sorry… but I do likes my birds… ;-D!
March 6th, 2009 at 10:35 pmSo, fred, why did you see fit to respond to TRoS’s question about Gray Davius before tackling mine about the significance you see in Glenn Beck’s ratings on Faux?
You like TRoS better’n me or what?
March 6th, 2009 at 10:37 pmWuz it cuz I picked on you fer wearin’ an elaborate system of trusses?

Geez… fred… that’s a bit of a leap. How did you ever come to that conclusion?
What am I supposed to do… go look the man up, ring his door bell, and give him one right in the kisser for all of that?

Yes they do. As a matter of fact, golden eagles are land predators, as opposed to bald eagles, which are fish hawks. The goldens’ presence has led to a precipitous drop in the number of foxes on the Channel Islands off the So Cal coast.

Actually, like I said above, the degradation of the Bay has been going on for a long time. Interesting point you make, though. There was once a time when the GOOP actually was the radical, environmentally involved party. If I’m not mistaken, Teddy Roosevelt was instrumental in the creation of the Nat park System.
Wasn’t the Grand Tetons his work?
So……. what happened? Were you as equally enraged at BotchCo for its environmental record, fred?

March 6th, 2009 at 10:53 pmPerhaps you misunderstood. I was commenting on your lack of class and total dickishness.
Why would I want to take that up with Gray Davis? Could he get me some satisfaction?
March 6th, 2009 at 10:53 pmSure, they all make stupid statements from time to time. Steele just keeps on makin’ ‘em.
March 6th, 2009 at 10:55 pmYou ever hear that story from maybe… gee… prolly twenty ears ago now, when the Queen of England was due to sail into the Bay on the Royal yacht… and the SF PD foiled a dastardly plot at the last minute by the Irish Republican Navy to chum the Golden Gate, heavily, w/ herring guts just before her arrival?
True story.
March 6th, 2009 at 10:55 pmSpeaking of eagles. Back in the 60’s the Bald Eagle was all but extinct in the lower 48 due to the effects of DDT. Now? Along a mere 25 mile stretch of the Mississippi we have 400 breeding pairs. The choice river habitat is so crowded that they are building nests in city parks throughout Minneapolis/St. Paul. Peregrine falcons have been reintroduced after being extirpated for over 20 years. And giant Canada Geese returned after being thought extinct.
All of those great birds were jeopardized by DDT. After the ban, all have made dramatic comebacks. Party politics has nothing to do with the discussion. We stopped using DDT and their was a dramatic and rapid improvement in the environment.
We, as a species, know that we have to stop crapping in our beds. We know that we can fix things. We can’t wait for China to lead the way. We can’t wait for Jebus to save us. We, as a species, must drastically change our attitudes about pollution and we have to do it fast.
Of course, our worthy troll can’t acknowledge that. Nor can he acknowledge the fact that the Reichwhiners have done everything in their power to convince the ignorant masses that pollution isn’t a solvable problem. In fact. They have done all in their power to convince the ignorant masses that environmentalism is unpatriotic and insane.
Sorry, stupid troll. You can’t defend Lush Rimjob and still claim outrage over any environmental issue.

Grey Davis is gone. Chas Hurwitz went bankrupt and had to sell off all his Pac Lumber holdings. Donald Fisher now owns all of it and is promising to return to a saner policy of land management.
I have to say… I wasn’t very political in the late 90’s. I had my hands full w/ other, more pressing concerns.
As far as the SF Bay goes… politicians from both sides of the aisle have played a part in the abuses over they ears, fred. Some of us are trying to clean it up.
Hell… the first environmental law in this country was passed to stop the placer mining up in the foothills of the Sierras. The technique was an ecological nightmare for the Sacramento river and the Bay.
Again… you would appear to be quite the staunch environmentalist, fred.
Wouldn’t you be glad to see the restoration of the Cargill salt ponds at the south end of the Bay? 16,500 acres of new bird habitat?

March 7th, 2009 at 12:52 amLet me guess. Our Troll Archie chose the name of a fictional 70’s sitcom character because he thinks it epitomizes his beliefs.
March 7th, 2009 at 12:57 amWhat is it with these repugs and fictional TV characters?

Well there was that one episode where he kissed Sammy Davis Jr. on the lips…Maybe that’s why our current troll chose that name. It’s starting to make sense…
March 7th, 2009 at 12:57 amMy dad was Archie Bunker. Just a little more refined ;-)
March 7th, 2009 at 1:00 amNite All, gotta get da kids to bed!
March 7th, 2009 at 1:01 amNorhwestern Republican. He has passed now, so I will just say I am glad I chose not to follow his path.
March 7th, 2009 at 1:02 amYou have to wonder about someone who would choose as a screenname the name of a character who was the unwitting butt of the joke. Archie Bunker was an ignorant bully and an ass who never understood just how stupid and classless he was. and here, 40 years later, we have an individual who so admires that racist caricature of a human being that he chooses that name.
March 7th, 2009 at 1:03 amLater RUC, tell a good story.
March 7th, 2009 at 1:03 amI out now to folks.
March 7th, 2009 at 1:03 amNite all,
even you AW Trolls.
Bobw,
just sayin right. it does start to make sense though.
anyway, gnite.
March 7th, 2009 at 1:06 amRAndom, our parents are what the are, or were. They want us to better than them, to evolve, I hope my daughter looks at me when I’m old and says with love in her heart, WTF.
March 7th, 2009 at 1:07 amIf that’s all over the map to you, then I stand by my comment that you are clueless and should STFU.
Now GNITE
March 7th, 2009 at 1:09 amGood Night Random
March 7th, 2009 at 1:10 amBite me Archie.
Archie nobrains,
March 7th, 2009 at 1:22 amAsk your plastic NP acquantance what an NP furnishing license is.
Man you are thick.
I will spell it out for you r e a l s l o w
My wife has studied and recieved her associates, bachelors, and masters degrees in nursing and medicine. She has passed both National Licensing Certification Test for RN and NP.
Without her NP FURNISHING LICENSE, she cannot prescribe medications.
This means you can not get any Oxycotin from me, so give it up already
March 7th, 2009 at 1:28 amWhat if Archie woke up one morning with a fully functioning brain?
Ah well, I’m not into fairy tales…
March 7th, 2009 at 1:32 amIf someone told me that he thought that “Keith Olbermann, Rachel Maddow, Chris Matthews, David Shuster–and all the other sneering, snarking lefties on the channel–were simply fronts for crony-capitalist lobbying and looting,” I would say they obviously had no idea what they were talking about. And probably never bothered to learn anything about them, either. Because, you have to admit, it’s a pretty stupid idea.
March 7th, 2009 at 1:34 amHere we go again, guys – same pattern, night after night.

March 7th, 2009 at 1:39 amRandomChaos & TRoS: you live in one of the richest avian areas in the world.
March 7th, 2009 at 1:40 am(Being in The Pacific Flyway)
Hawk Hill (Marin Headlands, just north of GGB) during fall migration (mid-Oct) there may be 70 – 100 hawks per hour flying over head.
You seem to be in the Alameda area ~ check your bridges for nesting pairs of Peregines.
One of the eyasses from the ‘07 nest in San José has been tracked in Emeryville.
Oh, and the SF PG&E scrape/nest is again occupied and on camera.
A pair of Bald Eagles is already sitting eggs (nest is on a power tower) at one of the South Bay reservoirs.
The Bay is making a comeback thanks to those who really care.
Hi, RC and everyone (well, almost everyone.)
EbbAndflow, any habitat recover is good news!
March 7th, 2009 at 1:45 amThe Bay is making a comeback thanks to those who really care.
To bad not many if any repugs make that list.

If there’s a way they can make money off it, such as through tourism or park entry fees, they’ll take care of it. If their income depends on it, they’ll take care of it. Otherwise, it would be a waste of money to them. That’s just how little they care.
March 7th, 2009 at 1:47 amIt’s official. If you go to the RNC site and put your cursor over the tab “Blog” at the top, you only get the pathetic RNC blog and not “Steele’s Blog” as we were able to access last week until it was taken down.
Is the RNC in disarray? Yep! Love it.
March 7th, 2009 at 8:53 amAnd who wants to bet that the trolls never knew Steele had a blog because they don’t take their own party seriously and have never gone to the RNC website ever to check it out?
March 7th, 2009 at 8:54 amWhat a crushing blow to the world of letters.
March 7th, 2009 at 9:00 amso much for the repukies reaching out to bold new “urban/suburban” markets. where are all the concern trolls screaming “racism” now like they were for burris?
March 7th, 2009 at 9:08 amWhat if you weren’t completely obsessed with Keith Olbermann, ThinkProgress and Newshounds?
What if you didn’t live your life in a state of constant fake outrage?
What if you actually believed in putting your country first?
What if trolling lost its appeal and you used all that time to actually do something productive with your life?
March 7th, 2009 at 9:49 amThe dems should encourage Rush to run for elected office. Of course he’ll ask “Well, why would I take a pay cut to simply be another elected conservative voice among many, when I can much more effectively convey conservative thought and principle in my present job?”
Democrats can answer “So, you are willing to make a fortune talking about conservative principles, but not willing to risk a moment of time to attempt to DO anything about our country’s problems. At some point, a person who makes a kings’ wages talking about America’s problems should be obligated to actually step forward, to take his political opponent’s blows, and not to simply cheerlead from the stands.“
March 7th, 2009 at 10:09 amThe bird is the word.
March 7th, 2009 at 10:30 amAre we back to birding? I have a couple of very excited titmice and a white breasted nut in view right now
March 7th, 2009 at 10:44 amMr. Philby/Mr. Sucks:
Which “known troll” do you think I am? Do you have any proof at all? Or do you just like to make excuses for your own behavior based on what you imagine others to do?
March 7th, 2009 at 10:50 amYes, you’ve just accused me of being a “known troll” without any proof. Where’s your proof? What site do you imagine I’ve trolled under what name?
March 7th, 2009 at 11:04 amSo Archie did you ever mess with Forsythia?
March 7th, 2009 at 11:09 amThe Olbermann-obsessed troll who goes by various handles has certain phrases he repeats over and over. One of them is: “No proof?” Just the way you’re doing now. The next line is “Shocker!”
You can simply google “no proof? shocker!” and see which sites pop up.
March 7th, 2009 at 11:11 amAnother obvious clue is the habit of plagiarizing other sites without accreditation. The way that you, “Archie B,” have done in #289 and #314. That’s a dead giveaway.
March 7th, 2009 at 11:17 amarch,
busted.
nice job ts.
:)
March 7th, 2009 at 11:36 amgoodbye steele, that’s what we want.
March 7th, 2009 at 11:39 amThe little ones are so cute when they are sleeping…
Groundhog Day?
March 7th, 2009 at 11:57 amThanks, Joe.
March 7th, 2009 at 11:58 amAll one has to do is google what you post.
Interesting question. I’d say you’re desperately hoping that to be the case because it would make you feel better about yourself.
Me? Not in the least. Feel free to contact the owners of this site and ask them if I post under any other names.
March 7th, 2009 at 12:01 pmRight on the money, RHF. So many of these right-wing trolls know they’re completely in the wrong but try to justify their bad behavior by pretending the other side is guilty of their exact sins. Pure psychological projection.
March 7th, 2009 at 12:11 pmVery interesting and it shines a light on much of the cognitive dissonance we’ve seen from the religious right. Thanks for the tip, I’m looking forward to seeing that data.

March 7th, 2009 at 12:47 pmi guess someone ought to call batshit crazy bachmann and tell her that she was wrong. apparently, steele won’t “be da man” for much longer.
March 7th, 2009 at 12:56 pmThe desperation is strong with this one.
March 7th, 2009 at 3:35 pmChased out by violent racists. Michael Steele is now discovering what everybody else has known all along. The core of the Republican party is composed of this planet’s most violent bigots. Did he really think they would tolerate being led by a non-white? Fool.
March 7th, 2009 at 4:05 pmYo Archie nobrains.
Please explain then why they took it down huh asshat?
You really are a tool
March 7th, 2009 at 5:40 pmAh Michael Steele… but a wet spot on the republican mattress
March 7th, 2009 at 6:54 pmligingolleri.blogcu.com Says: promoting its European Football blog?

Oh, good Lord… this is silly beyond belief. GE goes lib?
You really must come up w/ a smear that’s even close to credible if you don’t want to get laughed off the site…
March 7th, 2009 at 9:53 pmhabib=silly?
March 8th, 2009 at 12:55 amYes
Hope this does not sound too presumptious, but speaking on behalf of fair-minded blacks on this planet, I hope Michael Steele, Kenneth Blackwell, Clarence Thomas and the tiny retinue of blacks shilling for the ever diminishing Repug Party, will have a wonderful time on their kness, sucking on the excrement exuding from their lard-ass retard of a leader, Mush Clingball.
March 8th, 2009 at 7:32 amGive the GOP more time. They’ll start feeding on their own young soon.
