Michael Steele launches new blog called, um, “What Up?”

Posted on 10/14/2009 5:24:55 AM PDT by wingsof liberty

posted at 6:43 pm on October 13, 2009 by Allahpundit What can I tell you. He had a good few months there, though, didn’t he? Welcome back, chairman.

The Internet has been around a while, now. But, I still find it an amazing platform for innovation, not just in technology, but in life. Beyond admiring the way it powers so many inventions and businesses, it has become a personal thing for me. I love the fact that, wherever I might be, I can use technology to see my family and chat with them, and Social Media to tap into what my friends are doing. Today, I want to begin to better connect with Republicans everywhere. My first blog entry, therefore, is really a couple of questions for you; use the comment button to send me replies. We will run as many questions as we can, which I will answer. Why are you are Republican? Think about that for a minute.

I’m not registered with any party, actually, annnnnnd pretty happy about it today. Among the glitches on the newly redesigned GOP.com: The site password was visible for a time in the New York section and the “Future Leaders” page was left (temporarily) blank. Quoth the chairman: “It’s a beta site, meaning that there — we’re working out a lot of the kinks and the bugs… So the Dems can have their fun.” And so they have. Way to score an own goal, pal, completely needlessly and amateurishly. Oh, and apologies to LGF on behalf of our “wingnut blog” for failing to cover this sooner. Granted, there were not one but two items about it sitting in Headlines for hours, but when a site that gave up blogging about Iran and the New York City terror plot to focus on the urgent threat from creationism tells you you’re falling down on the job, you listen.

TOPICS: Government
KEYWORDS:
I love it. Now is the time to go on the offensive against the RATS, with healthcare support plummeting and support for thier other policies tanking. And THIS is the best the chairman of the RNC can come up with?? Not to mention his recent praise for Bertha Lewis, head of the "smeared" organization ACORN. Whenever I get fundraising letters from him, they go right in the circular file. Conservatives desperately need a champion, and quite frankly, he aint it.

Certainly not the GOP’s IQ.

How would Steele or the Republican Party know?

Agreed. I am repulsed by Snoop Mike’s insistence that we all join him in descending into urban slang. There is, after all, still such a thing as dignity — though apparently not at Snoop Mike’s RNC.

Mt Steele is a lousy national party chairman. This guy is in the tank with obamma, imho. He is not a fighter, nor does he hold conservative values close to his heart. I think Steele is more concerned what is good for him, not the Republican party.

Speaking of GOP.com, what's up with the red background and gold stars, was this thing hacked to look like something for the Chinese government?

Actually I think Steele is pretty indicative of the GOP these days - swing left and hope to pick up disaffected Democrats as well as target certain minorities. Trying to draw minority voters away from the Democrats and to a party that should better suit their needs sounds good on paper, but even Steele and the GOP has managed to screw that up.

Steele is clueless and has no sense of discernment. Whatever made him think it’s OK for “jive” be used in a professional environment? He does not get it. He needs to go away. Pathetic!
