Steele: ‘I’m the gift that keeps on giving.’
Steele: ‘I’m the gift that keeps on giving.’
David Corn of Mother Jones caught up with RNC Chairman Michael Steele at the White House Correspondents’ Association dinner on Saturday. He jokingly thanked Steele for providing so much fodder for political journalists, to which the chairman replied:
He leaned back, pulling himself to his full height, and, laughing, proclaimed, “I’m the gift that keeps on giving.” Almost as if he were proud of that. Certainly, he was was just engaging in that self-deprecating humor that pols are taught to deploy. But it struck me as odd that he would beam so much as he said that. I wondered about the guy.
“I’ve always been of the view,” I said, “that party chairs ought not to be seen or heard but should stick to managing the party mostly behind the scenes.” Hint, hint.
“That’s what I keep telling them,” he said. Them? I wasn’t sure who “them” was. But it seemed as if he meant Republican insiders. And that was odd.

Steele is a fool. Between Steele, Limbaugh, Cheney and Palin, these people don’t need anymore help destroying the Republican Party.

May 11th, 2009 at 12:49 pmLimbaugh suggested in March that Republican National Committee Chairman Michael Steele commit suicide for presiding over Republican losses.

So does Steele have cat DNA or is he ignoring Rush’s request?

May 11th, 2009 at 12:54 pmDo you suppose that Steele was dropped on his head as a baby? Because there seems to be a huge break in the synapses that control thought/speech.
What a moran.

May 11th, 2009 at 12:59 pmThe Grand Obstructionist Party seems to have a knack for choosing unqualified people for key national-level positions: Harriet Meiers for Supreme Court, Sarah Palin for veep, and now Michael Steele. If this trend continues, the Dems won’t have to work very hard in national elections.
May 11th, 2009 at 1:01 pmYes, I defy you to find any vile comments made by me here. Can’t say the same about you though.
May 11th, 2009 at 1:01 pmIf I didn’t know better, I would almost think that Steele is intentionally torpedoing the Republican party. What I don’t get is why are they allowing him to continue doing it?
May 11th, 2009 at 1:01 pmDog forbid anyone should compare the gift with what Dean did for the DNC.
I like the new Republican slogan though they shouldn’t have stolen it…Send in the Clowns.
May 11th, 2009 at 1:02 pmMatt, is Steele going to say anything like “Rush is an overweight drug addict.”? I love to see the fireworks. Make it so Matt!

So are you intimating that Joe Biden has said something vile about the right? If so, please let us in on what it was.
Talk about vile. Most of the vitriol I hear comes from your side of the street. Your people wish for the death of SC justices, leaders of other countries, Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid. How much more vile can you get?
May 11th, 2009 at 1:03 pmIf I was a Repuke, I’d be proud of this man too.

Hooda, Dean’s brain child was the amazingly successful 50 State Strategy.

I don’t think the Dems could pay anyone to do a better of sabotage from the inside than we have with Steele, Palin, JoeTheWhatever and Lushbo.

You need to remove Joe the Plumber from the lineup. In case you missed it, he has resigned from the Republican party. Hopefully he won’t become a Democrat, or if he does, the party ignores him.

I know. I thought about that, but Joe the plumber represents exactly what the GOP stands for: Fake outrage, fake experience, fake skills, fake patriotism, fake religion, fake empathy, fake, fake, fake…
Joe is a perfect cardboard cutout, suitable for all occasions.

Apparently you can find no examples of vile comments from me.

May 11th, 2009 at 1:18 pmContrast Steele with Howard Dean’s taking care of business and expanding the 50 state strategy… We hardly say Dean on the talk shows or anywhere on the TV, but he was quietly building a coalition.
What is Steele really accomplishing except to embarrass himself?
May 11th, 2009 at 1:18 pmYour history of comments here and your response show being vile is not something your even attempt to avoid.

May 11th, 2009 at 1:19 pmMichael Steele DOES have a Fifty State Strategy.
May 11th, 2009 at 1:19 pmHe just needs two more states and his collection of quarters will be complete. TAKE THAT, HOWARD DEAN!!
“Them” are the pasty old white guys who run the Republican Party. I would feel sorry for Michael Steele, but a chicken who wants to party with Colonel Sanders gets what it deserves.

May 11th, 2009 at 1:27 pmI believe you’ve misjudged joe cantwell.
First of all, he very seldom resorts to insults.
Second, it’s strange that you indict joe for failing to produce examples of your vile comments (especially when he never accused you of such), yet you have produced none for joe. You’ve simply accused him of resorting to “insults” with no evidence.
May 11th, 2009 at 1:28 pmIf I may ask, Romartin16985, are you contending that Steele is boldly leading the GOP into the 21st Century? Is he working with other party leaders to make the GOP a better, stronger, party? Is his quick wit exposing weakness in the Democratic party?
I’m just trying to figure out what your position is re. Mr. Steele. Thanks.
May 11th, 2009 at 1:29 pmro gets confused when he doesn’t see his butt at the end of an argument.
May 11th, 2009 at 1:29 pmAssuming this is a continuation of your misguided attack on joe cantwell, allow me to point out that, no, it is NOT “nuf said”.
You have not produced a shred of evidence of joe being “vile”.
Come to think of it, it might be best to start out with a clear definition of what you consider “vile”. Otherwise you might try to move the goal posts when pressed to produce a quote.
May 11th, 2009 at 1:31 pmEvidently this man is content to be the clown in the GOP. He does not seem to mind being held in contempt by them. If he does not mind being the gift of ridicule, then he is in the right party.
The GOP eat their own. I don’t understand why he is willing to be the blue plate special in Republican dining. Where is his pride? And where is his instinct for survival? The poor putz!

Funny, what you call vile, we call the truth. Maybe that is why your devotion to the regional cult known as the GOP is eating you up inside. You are watching your source of confidence and well being slowly becoming irrelevant. What will you do when Limbaugh is all you have left to worship?

Or is this a lame attempt to smear another poster without putting up the goods to back it up?
It just seems like if you’re demanding that he produce evidence of an offense of which he has not accused you, you would have enough integrity to live up to the standards you demand of others.

May 11th, 2009 at 1:40 pmlocust,
Try to keep up.
joe did ask me if I could joke without getting vile. I’ve answered that.
But he has shown he can get vile with his comments to me (that you may have missed), in other posts.
And he seems proud of that.
May 11th, 2009 at 1:41 pmI’m trying to be polite. Perhaps you missed my respectful, and non-vile, question? Here it is again.
If I may ask, Romartin16985, are you contending that Steele is boldly leading the GOP into the 21st Century? Is he working with other party leaders to make the GOP a better, stronger, party? Is his quick wit exposing weakness in the Democratic party?
I’m just trying to figure out what your position is re. Mr. Steele. Thanks.
May 11th, 2009 at 1:42 pmI like the idea that the supposed head of the Republican Party feels a need to portray himself as a clown. And that he bows to the el Supremo Rush. Says great things for the party.
May 11th, 2009 at 1:42 pmro, in typical right wing hypocrisy mode, accuses others without proof and then demands proof for accusation against him that were not even made
what a silly little right wing coward
and yes, ro, that is vile, because all you rate is vile responses to your inane “questions” that are nothing but repeating of the talking points the right wing media has given you
now dance to my tune you pansy little ignorant coward
May 11th, 2009 at 1:46 pmRomartin, if your definition of vile is pointing out you lack substance then get ready for lots of vile comments about your posts.
May 11th, 2009 at 1:47 pmI’m trying. How about helping out a brother?
Maybe there’s something going on here that I missed from another thread, but the only “answer” I’ve seen from you is a demand that joe produce evidence of your “vile” comments.
Can you provide evidence of these posts? Links? Again, per your instructions, I’m trying to “keep up”.
Perhaps you are reading too much into joe’s style.
May 11th, 2009 at 1:49 pmpete,
I’ve read enough from you to know how much you really care about the opinions of a conservative.
And you’ve probably read enough of my comments to have an idea where I stand.
The Republican party is in the process of realizing that going moderate gets them nowhere. Evidence the last election.
This will take time. Liberals will enjoy the process. Savor it, because one of the few things in life that can be counted on is that things change.
May 11th, 2009 at 1:49 pmlol, ro thinks the Republicans keep getting beaten because they are too moderate!
o man, THAT is hilarious!
you home schooled hicks sure do love demonstrating your ignorance!

I’ve read enough from you to know how much you really care about the opinions of a conservative.
In addition to avoiding the honest question I posed, you couldn’t be more wrong. If you actually understood my posts you would realize that I hold the opinion that the GOP is no longer controlled by “conservatives” nor do their remaining defenders have any claim to that label.
Heck! I used to be a independent conservative, more likely to vote for Republicans. Then the GOP was slowly corrupted by right-wing authoritarians, crooks, and religious zealots. There’s not a real conservative left in the bunch. We were driven away by reckless radicals who make disastrous decisions.
May 11th, 2009 at 2:04 pmWait — weren’t you the guy who was complaining that libs don’t want to engage in “reasonable discussion”?

No. I haven’t. I try not to make assumptions about how one feels on a given issue without their input. I haven’t seen you offer an opinion on what you think of Mr. Steele. Just a bunch of agitation.
So, for the third time, what do you think of Mr. Steele as a spokesman for the GOP?
May 11th, 2009 at 2:07 pmThis is my favorite dumbass right-wing contradictory post of the day. First, he tells us that the GOP should not change, because going moderate gets them nowhere. Then he informs us that all things change!
I know where you stand, in quicksand.
May 11th, 2009 at 2:12 pmYou’re right, CFP. I think you guys should just keep Michael Steele as your party chair. After all, what damage could he do?
May 11th, 2009 at 2:12 pmCome to think of it, I’m still an independent conservative. The only thing that’s changed is that I won’t vote for anyone who defends the current crop of GOoPers. They have been judged and found lacking.
May 11th, 2009 at 2:13 pmI suppose you thought they were doing their job when they were regurgitating spoon fed Bush propaganda before the invasion of Iraq.

Around here, that distinguishes you from most conservatives who show up. Even the trolls recognize the difference.
May 11th, 2009 at 2:19 pmI will take him a while to get back to you on that. The phone lines to Rush Limbaugh are usually pretty backed up.
May 11th, 2009 at 2:20 pmpete,
I believe that Michael Steele is a good and decent man. He is also conservative in many of his viewpoints, and so I agree with him more often than not.
He is articulate and well spoken. I don’t hold gaffe’s against anyone, liberal or democrat, for too long, as we are all human.
Someone’s intentions are what counts to me.

May 11th, 2009 at 2:31 pmQuestion for Romartin, Proud, CFP and any other troll who cares to weigh in. In the last two months, what is the ratio of Republicans/sympathizers versus Democratic/sympathizers who have been on MSM programs?
Let me make it easier, when was the last time you saw a lefty on a MSM program?

Sure are.
May 11th, 2009 at 2:38 pmWhat did comedy and cable news do before Micheal Steele???
One little caveat. Cable news doesn’t really count. I’m talking what everyone can hear without paying.
May 11th, 2009 at 2:39 pmWell sure, they are almost all Republicans on the MSM these days. You see, that is the sinister plan by the liberal news media. The few remaining Republicans are so whacked out, that the liberal media invites them on TV so they can thoroughly embarrass themselves and discredit the GOP. Those liberal media types are sneaky.

Masquerade/copycat RO~ who is also Joe Cantwell, you REALLY don’t want to open that can of rattlesnakes. BE CAREFUL what kind of fire you play with now that it seems your bitter little heart can no longer threaten other commenters with death etc. A word is enough for the wise. Lets keep it here quietly where outsiders might not see it. Hopefully this is the last I will ever see of this kind of crap. Concentrate on using your creative mind for something constructive, not destructive. It sharpens it and brings it out of the doldrums.

Howard Dean oversaw the Democrats kicking GOP A$$ two straight elections. I dont know if one person can destroy a party but I am glad there are people as stupid as YOU out there trying
May 11th, 2009 at 3:09 pmRomartin16985 Says:
Ha! The Democrats seem to have outdone them all as we now have a President with no executive experience at all.
<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
Neither did Lincoln and he did pretty well. My GOD you are stupid. Still the GOP still takes the cake giving us a president with no BRAIN at all

As I’ve told you, go play by yourself.
Your jokes usually end up in the gutter. Not going there with you.

May 11th, 2009 at 3:53 pmjoe,
Don’t fret, you can’t hurt my feelings.
You’re just a creepy sounding blogger who can be easily ignored.
May 11th, 2009 at 4:01 pmCareful joe, you’re coming dangerously close to getting vile.
Don’t want to go there.
May 11th, 2009 at 4:08 pmI have no idea what you just said.
May 11th, 2009 at 4:10 pmSorry locust he already went there.
He thinks Wanda Sykes was funny.
Maybe you do too?
May 11th, 2009 at 4:16 pmAh, yes. Michael Steele, the titular head of the League of Extraordinary Nincompoops.
Love ya, Mikey!!!
May 11th, 2009 at 4:24 pmSay, there, Ro, did YOU think Rush was funny when he mocked Michael J. Fox…? Or was that perhaps “over the line”?
Do tell.

May 11th, 2009 at 4:29 pmSo you say.
But you haven’t shown me any evidence and, not surprisingly, I don’t take you at your word.
May 11th, 2009 at 4:37 pmjoe,
Now you’re being disingenuous.
Or maybe you just forgot your comment – #55 on the Cheney picks Limbaugh thread.
May 11th, 2009 at 4:40 pm…
ralph,
ro is particularly unhappy today.
i can’t say why he is,
but the pain is there
and he’s hurting.
:(
ro buddy, what’s up?
what’s frying your noodle?

….
wands sykes:
“Rush Limbaugh, one of your big critics. Boy, Rush Limbaugh said he hopes this administration fails. Yeah. So you’re saying I hope America fails. It’s like I don’t care about people losing their homes, losing their jobs, our soldiers in Iraq. He just wants the country to fail. To me that’s treason. He’s not saying anything differently than what Osama bin Laden is saying. You know, you might want to look into this sir but I think maybe Rush Limbaugh was the 20th highjacker but he was just so strung out on Oxycontin he missed his flight.”

love that girl.
too bad the republicans can’t do teh funny,
:)
didn’t but say she was funny,
just wondered why “republicans can’t
do teh funny”

how are you coming with your joke
ro?
remember, don’t be vile.

May 11th, 2009 at 4:51 pmSo, to recap:
to our friend Romartin,
when joe cantwell says about Wanda Sykes, “love that girl. too bad the republicans can’t do teh funny,”
He’s actually saying that he thinks Wanda Sykes is funny.
A reasonable argument could be made to that effect, but one must accept a certain latitude in extended implication in order to make it.
Yet our friend Ro has stated explicitly that when Rush said “I don’t need 400 words, I need four: I hope he fails.”, he wasn’t actually saying he hoped the president fails.
Wait… now I see! Ro states that when Limbaugh said “I would be honored if the Drive-By Media headlined me all day long: “Limbaugh: I Hope Obama Fails.” Somebody’s gotta say it. “ what he actually meant was this:he believes many of the President’s policies are bad for the country. He wants the policies to fail so as to prevent, not create, more job loss and economic pain.
So our friend Romartin seems to be a BIG believer in “extended implication”.
May 11th, 2009 at 5:07 pmThank you joe and locust,
Your Pelosi impressions are great!
May 11th, 2009 at 5:19 pm“Pelosi impressions”?

You’re right, joe. Right-wingers just can’t DO teh funny.
May 11th, 2009 at 5:25 pmI just knew some of you wouldn’t get it!
Think backpeddling, parsing, splitting hairs, whatever…….

May 11th, 2009 at 5:28 pmOh, I see!
The “Pelosi impressions” was Ro’s long-delayed response to joe’s request for a joke.
Too bad Ro forgot her audience. She ought to save her “Pelosi material” for the Rotary talent show.
It’ll kill there.

May 11th, 2009 at 7:55 pmjoe,
I guess you did like Wanda’s jokes but just can’t admit it.
I didn’t really think I’d find a redeeming quality but had held out a bit of hope…….
