A black bourgeoisie perspective on U.S. politics
Courtesy of the late Steve Gilliard. He warned us about Michael Steele when he photoshopped this.
Since when haven’t the Rethugs called for this man to step down. And after he shot off his yap, too.
Don’t he know if you’re in the GOBP, YOU CAN’T DO THAT? Oh, well, if Chris Cilizza is to believed, they’re going to wait until after the mid-term elections to kick him to the curb, son. (Hat tip, John Aravosis at Americablog):
But once the midterm election is over, multiple Republican sources told the Fix there is a widespread recognition that Steele’s tenure is over — no matter what happens at the ballot box.
“Most members have already come to the conclusion that they can’t have Steele as chairman in a presidential cycle,” said one high-level GOP operative. “If you think his gaffes are a distraction now, imagine them in the heat of a presidential campaign.”
But I noticed this call for his head didn’t occur until after he told this lie about Obama:
“This was a war of Obama’s choosing,” Steele told a group of donors. “This is not something the United States had actively prosecuted or wanted to engage in.”
