GOP catfight: Michael Steele calls Reince Priebus 'numb nuts'
The Washington Examiner's Washington Secrets ^ | March 19, 2013 | Paul Bedard

The catfight between former Republican National Committee Chairman Michael Steele and his replacement, Reince Priebus, has reached screech level, with Steele belittling the party's new focus on minorities as old news.

Appearing on the "Andrea Tantaros Show," a nationally syndicated radio show, Steele called the GOP establishment that on Monday unveiled a $10 million minority outreach effort a bunch of "numb nuts" for ignoring the plan he instituted four years ago.

Steele also sounded ready to beat up Priebus. Asked by Tantaros who would win in a cage fight, Steele said, "Oh, no question, I would clean his clock." How? "Just one knock on the head. It's done."

The Steele-Priebus battle is, in a way, a repeat of their 2011 duel for the RNC chairmanship......

The members of your Republican Party in your state, elect, at their state convention, two representatives, one woman, one man, to be on the National Committee. Those folks, along with each state chairman, elect the national chairman.

Who did your two representatives vote for? Practicaly no one knows who their representataives are, much less how they voted.

Bottom line is the GOP had success in 2010 on Steele’s watch, while Priebus has been an absolute disaster. Frankly, why he still has the job, I don’t know.

BUMP what you said.

Do people really have that in mind when they say it?

I get that it's a bad insult, but I'd always thought of it as just another way of saying "stupid" or "jerk" or "lame," not as having a specific sexual meaning.
