Steele calls for "Bling, Bling"-free stimulus

[Cash_thatswhatiwant]

Just ran into new RNC Chairman Michael Steele who watched President Obama's town hall in Indiana and wasn't impressed.

The Obama-backed stimulus, he said, "is just a wish list from a lot of people who have been on the sidelines for years.. to get a little bling, bling."

(For the record -- we Nexis-ed "Ed Gillespie" and "bling" and found nothing)

Steele, before ducking into an elevator on on the second floor of the Capitol: "I thought it was very, very interesting. It looks like he's trying to very hard to shore up support from Democrats" because "he's upside-down" in the polls.

1. Is he running against Rush in the Douche Bag race, cause he's nearly neck ad neck with him.

[Rosa Luxemburg]

2. let's ask him what Steele and Ehrlich's liaison was with Abramoff?

Silver Spring, Maryland

[Jennicut]

3. OMFG, is he trying to be "cool" and "hip" ?

He is still a freakin tool. Next time don't try so hard, Barack is smooth without even lifting a finger.

[WinkyDink]

4. Moving beyond "Will Say Anything" to "Risibly Playing at 'Street'."

[Zodiak]

5. (facepalm) n/t

[TheWraith]

41. Facepalm:

[KathieG]

51. I third the facepalm

[Uzybone]

6. How long before he breaks out the cane and top hat

I think the GOP just elected its own dancing ******.

[Qutzupalotl]

7. Who let the dogs out?

[Danger Mouse]

8. Fuck you, Steele. Seriously, fuck you.

[K Gardner]

44. He needs to tell Henrietta she wants "bling bling".

[ProSense]

9. What a geek!

Seriously, the guy is a complete moron.

[Arkana]

10. Wow, you're really hip, Mr. Steele!

Tell me, how depressing is it being you, Michael? Would you equate it to being a lifelong Cubs fan or being born without lips?

[ErinBerin84]

11. if Obama is upside down in the polls

What the hell would he call the shitty numbers that the Repukes' plan has been getting in the polls?

[AlCzervik]

12. And then did he raise the roof and make some noyzzzzzz?

[Barack_America]

20. Booyah! Ya know he did, yo.

Word, check it, etc.

:rofl:

[Ikonoklast]

25. No, but he does do a respectable 'Cabbage Patch'.

Mostly because that's what fills his cranium.


Steele will be the gift of stupid that keeps on giving.

[ClarkUSA]

13. Doesn't Michael Steele look like Urkel all grown up and still trying to be cool?

[nomorenomore08]

24. Yeah, that's exactly what he looks like. Except he makes Urkel seem cool.

:P

[pot luck]

14. Bling, bling?

:rofl:

He sounds like someone's dad trying to be cool.

[dcindian]

15. And they wonder why people are voting less and less for them.

Maybe they are looking for adults instead of shit like Michael Steele.

[Solomon]

16. Michael Steele is stupid.

[Barack_America]

17. New official Republican greeting.

Whasssuuuupp?!?!



:rofl:

[Yavin4]

18. Why Does Obama Attract Nutjobs As His Opponents?

First, there was the King Nutjob, Alan Keyes when Obama ran for the Senate in 2004.

Next, there was Sarah Palin.

Now, as President, he has Michael Steele as the voice of the opposition.

[Clio the Leo]

19. He does realize that "GOP is not a hip-hop group right?

I mean, with TI and T Pain running around all of those acronymns can get confusing.

[Barack_America]

21. Ya down with GOP?

Yeah you know me!

New Republican advertising campaign geared at attracting "teh blacks".

;)

[Clio the Leo]

22. You DONT know me!!! Ha ha!

Now .... I am desperately trying to remember an NWA lyric to respond to you with. lol

[Starbucks Anarchist]

23. He makes Vanilla Ice look hip.

[AzDar]

26. A fucking moron. A TOKEN fucking moron.

:eyes:

[mopinko]

27. is this why they picked him? so he can use all the code words to say that

psst, you know that barack guy is a nigger, right?

pardon my harsh language, but you know that is what they mean,

[bdamomma]

30. well we all know how they slaughter the English language.

they live on catch phrases and soundbites to catapult the propaganda.

[TZ]

34. What you have to remember about Steele

is this is the guy who went around whining during his Senate campaign about being called an "oreo" and ZOMG..people threw cookies at him!!! Its just unfair!
The guy is a complete and utter clueless asshole.

[ecstatic]

28. wow! I'm becoming embarrassed for him

He's very comfortable in his clown role.

[ellacott]

29. Drill Baby Drill

He is digging his own grave.

[uponit7771]

35. ....and drill some more!! lofl.........these guys are ass clowns

[NatBurner]

31. we sing sin

we thin gin






...dork

[jenmito]

32. WOW-He is so COOL! His use of slang like "bling bling" will SURELY get the Black vote.

:eyes: Does he think people are THAT stupid? You betcha!

[AtomicKitten]

33. he aspires to be a doofus hipster n/t

[jenmito]

37. He reached the first part. :)

[Number23]

43. Good grief, I was thinking the same thing.

He has got to be the corniest black man in the world. He brings the BC (Black Coolness) quotient down about a million points every time he opens his mouth.

[jenmito]

49. Yeah...

He's so STUPID and the white GOP is happy to USE him. He doesn't even realize it. But he really thinks he's so cool that he's going to get all the young people (and Black people of any age) to leave OUR party for HIS. You know, just like when all the women voted for McCain because he chose a woman-Palin. :eyes:

[Lyric]

36. "Bling bling" is obviously meant to draw some kind of subtle parallel

between Obama and a stereotype of black culture.

This is why the 'Pukes elected a black man for their party leader. He can draw racist parallels like that, and they can stand back and smugly say, "Well he's BLACK. He can't be racist!"

Morons.

[jenmito]

38. I disagree...

I think he used that slang to make himself seem "cool," as if now the Repub. party is hip and cool and can attract young voters. They think that making him the face and voice of the Repub. party, that is "change." :eyes:

[sniffa]

46. No, he just gets to enjoy the fine comforts of the GOP house

If only the other black people would be like him they'd get to live there too.

[Deep13]

39. What a tool! nt

[Blue_Tires]

40. Steele concluded the interview by shouting "HEYYYYY MACARENA!!!"

[Baikonour]

42. Next he'll be telling us to "raise the roof."

What a douche.

[sniffa]

45. He's just keepin' it real

But didn't he get the memo? Hyper-frugality is the new bling.

Finally, I'm back in style.

[jmowreader]

47. I'm going to take a wild stab at this...

To Michael Steele, anything that isn't a tax cut is "bling, bling."

Here is MY bling, bling-free stimulus plan:

$3 billion for my American Car Raffle program.

$100 bilion for alternative energy.

$100 billion for mass transit.

$100 billion for infrastructure.

$400 billion to nationalize the worst-run banks.

and $1 billion to renovate Alcatraz, round up anyone who ever worked in the Bush Administration, and throw them in there for the rest of their sorry-ass lives. (This one we can get back by charging $10 to let people go to the island and throw pea gravel at them.)

[EraOfResponsibility]

48. OOOOH I hope Keith O talks about this

I get the feeling this motherfucker is gonna be a favorite punching bag of Keith's for a long time to come.

[Joe the Revelator]

50. I love how Republicans love to throw their token black folks up to make the racist comments about

Obama, that they wish they could say themselves.


Way to sell Michael.
