PoliticObama ^ | November 9th | Andy Barr

Posted on 11/14/2009 8:07:00 AM PST by Halfmanhalfamazing

Republican National Committee Chairman Michael Steele said Sunday that he has been in rooms with white Republicans who are “scared” of him.

Responding during a interview to TV One’s Roland Martin, who said that “white Republicans have been scared of black folks,” Steele replied: “You’re absolutely right.”

white Republicans have been scared of black folks

Maybe it's because they've destroyed nearly every big city in this country, as well our schools, our culture, the military, the government/civil service, and now the Presidency--all we get is crime, squalor, ignorance, big mouths yapping, a million excuses--and yet, it's considered a crime to even point it out.

Steele is a total loser--Google his GQ interview from last year--he is a complete moron.

Steele shouldn’t feel *afraid* of saying something patronizing and hurtful to white folks, he should feel *ashamed*.

Did any one else get nice sky blue donation envelope with “PAST DUE”. 2 weeks ago I received a donation letter, on the outside of the envelope for the world to see “PAST DUE” in big red letters. I am not even a re-pelican. Not affiliated with any party at all. I have e-mailed and mailed them twice, not friendly responses, telling them to LEAVE ME ALONE. My husband quickly sat down and penned this, To Republican National Committee: 11/04/09

You recently sent a letter to my wife asking for money. On the envelope, in red letters, it said “PAST DUE”. Past due for what? My wife is not a registered Republican but I am (soon not to be). She could not believe that you had the gall to send her something that said “PAST DUE” on it.
Here is a “PAST DUE” for the Republicans: You are “PAST DUE” for doing something with illegal immigration. You are “PAST DUE” about cleaning up the greed and corruption in the party. You are “PAST DUE” for standing up and supporting what is right for this country, not your special interests and re-election bids. If you won’t do what is right for America, we will vote you out. You are “PAST DUE” on holding up the Constitution. You are “PAST DUE” on decreasing the size of government. Our freedoms are at stake here.
You spend $900,000 supporting RINO Dede and then she withdraws costing the conservative votes. What a shame!! Do you want me or my wife to support that? No way!! We are conservatives. It’s time to get the RINO’s out of the party and turn to the roots of conservatism. We in America are angry and fed up with the politicians. The spending has to stop now.
If you want our money and support, put in a candidate that makes us feel good about them, not someone who the “leaders” of the party support.

Sincerely,

No Brotha. You are mistaking disgust for fear.
But then, I no longer consider myself a Republican, so I guess my disgust with you and your party cannot be considered fear.

Will someone please E-Mail a copy of this thread to the bumbling FOOL, Mr. STEELE!! He needs to read it, and I am sure he is NOT bright enough to find this thread on his own!
His latest fund raising stunt is to mail you an envelope stamped in RED! “PAYMENT OVERDUE!” if you have not responded in the past with a contribution! This is a ploy guaranteed to make “BLOOD SPURT OUT OF YOUR YES!” and P*SS ONE OFF BEYOND COMPREHENSION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Mr. STEELE, You are NOT ONLY a FOOL and a BUMBLING IDIOT! but You are IGNORANT!! HELL WILL FREEZE OVER BEFORE YOU GET A DIME! Mr. STEELE!!!!!!

For some reason, Michael Steele feels the need to play to his audience. Just as he had thrown Rush under the bus....

If I get something from the RNC, I'm going to write on it--"Sorry, I'm scared of Michael Steele. Scared that he's going to say something stupid again". He's supposed to be out there promoting conservatism and the Republican party. Instead he makes a stupid ass statement, once again, like this which paints Republicans as a bunch of fearful, hateful racists. Way to go idiot. How many more donations did you just blow? Glad you got to tear us down with a frickin' CNN liberal. Hope it felt good to have a second of agreement with Roland Martin. If they do get rid of him, what do you want to bet he stabs the party in the back big time. If he's doing it as the party charirman, you know darn well it's going to be big payback time if they get rid of the idiot.

This is an old story, plus you have misrepresented it.

That says a lot more about you than it does about Mr. Steele.

Further proof that the GOP wants to be more like the Dems?

Steele uses the race card — against some in his own party.

[The GOP needs to buy a clue.]

Hey, playing the race card works for obama—steele is just following in his footsteps. It couldn’t possibley be because he’s not a conservative.
