Michael Steele Must Go
Posted on | January 9, 2010 | 21 Comments
by Smitty
It’s as much my place to have an opinion about Michael Steele as it is to have one about the Pope. I’m neither a GOP member nor a Roman Catholic. That said, I had been ambivalent about Steele’s performance as RNC chairman. Game changer? Tool? Who can say?
Then I saw this picture. He’s got to go.

Steele, no Steele, who cares, you right wingers are all racists anyway. Democrats and free thinkers like me cannot be racist.
But let me use this opportunity to clarify that James Rainey LA Times story on me.
I haven’t only gotten threats from right-wingers, either. Since Little Green Footballs began, I’ve had the privilege of being threatened by a rich panoply of unsavory humans: militant Islamists who wanted to cut my throat, neo-Nazis (in particular, Bill White, friend of white supremacist blogger Robert Stacy McCain) who tried to find my home address and post it on the web, and lots of random threats posted on blogs that were less specific.
I actually hid for a while when I found out Stacy McCain was in the area. Even though I outweigh him by about 200 lbs, you can never be too careful.
So I am going to ignore that James Rainey photographed me in a manner than made me look like a beady eyed vitamin D deficiency computer geek jerk off who is husky and whose idea of a “relationship” is to watch Trasformers alone and think things about Megan Fox. I am going to completely and utterly ignore that.

1) First Steele puts his foot in his mouth and now a cheesehead. You are 100%, balls-on correct, Smitty. Enough with the embarrassing behavior, enough with the scandelous relationships! Steele has crossed a line here that no about of apologizing can forgive.
2) I talked with the Pope and he’s not pleased either [my next door neighbor looks exactly like him, so, I figure, he is him in hiding (to protect him against assassins…how frickin’ clever we Catholics are) and I ask him for advice a lot and for blessings and confess to him once a week and give him money and he takes it and blesses me].

Obviously Smitty is racist for not liking Steele. Now I do not like Michael Steele either because he is a right wing nut. But here is the distinction, I cannot be a racist, and Smitty cannot be anything but a racist. That is now it works. Because I said so.
I am more interested in Harry Reid’s racism right now.
I think what this shows, more than Reid’s racism, is his casual contempt for voters — even Democratic voters — since he’s assuming that Obama’s ability to “speak white” is going to influence them.
Meanwhile…
The fascist sympathizers at Gates of Vienna are trying to seize the moment and convince the right wing blogosphere that since I’m obviously deranged, now’s the time for all good wingnut bloggers to embrace the neo-fascists of Europe — especially Vlaams Belang.
Gotta love it. The way things are going on the wingnut blogs, this ploy might even work. It’s a small step from white supremacist blogger Robert Stacy McCain to the real European fascist movement.
Apparently Bill Clinton is a racist too.. But it is reported by Hot Air, which Kilgore on special super secret assignment proved was a very racist site. And don’t even get me going on the whole school fisting stuff. Because that makes me mad. I am going to sue someone. Well maybe. I never forgot or forgave Pam Geller for spurning me. I bet she regrets that now! She could have had the lizard king. But enough for now, I have to get back to Megan Fox on Blue Ray DVD.

Can’t be the real Charles Johnson… this guy does too much work and has a sense of humor. Sorry, pal.
I dunno Smitty – I don’t know how the Repubes work, so I can’t tell whether Steele is good or bad for the Party or for libertarian-conservatives.

Smitty is a Troglophobe and a Cheesehead hater. Stacy should fire him immediately.

I’m a Palin backer and I’ve soured on Steele. To riff off John Hawkins of Right Wing News, “We wanted somebody different and we got our own Jesse Jackson.”
Whenever Steele can find a few free minutes in his busy schedule of stuffing the RNC payroll with his relatives and cronies, he manages to write an unauthorized book extolling “GOP” virtues whose implementation he is actively working to prevent, in conjunction with the party campaign machine, trying to foist unpopular candidates with no qualifications other than their party connections off on an unwilling base, in an attempt to reproduce the disasters of 2006 and 2008 so blatantly stupid it can only be deliberate.
It’s time for Michael Steele to go, before it becomes time for the GOP to go with him.

This Harry Reid Double Standard Racism argument (while Democrats hypocritically hold others to a much more strict standard) is just another example of if you lie, lie big:
Here is another:
British government insists this is one of the warmest winters ever in Britian.
Reality.
