Steele: Pelosi 'in the back of the bus'
Steele: Pelosi 'in the back of the bus'
From NBC's Joel Seidman

Republican National Committee chairman Michael Steele, wearing a red baseball cap emblazoned with the words "Fire Pelosi," invited Republicans to join him on a "Fire Nancy Pelosi bus tour" Friday.

During remarks at the summer meeting of the RNC in Kansas City, Steele announced that the 6-week tour would commence after Labor Day.

Rallying the GOP to win in November and urging supporters to "get on the bus," Steele capped off his call to action by predicting that "Nancy Pelosi will be in the back of the bus."

1. A black person talking about sending anyone to the back bus has real problems
It's bad enough for anyone to say it, but for someone whose people actually went through a struggle to use such an analogy is sad and sick.

4. And the Repukes are stuck with their Idiot
They can't fire him because he is black

He won't ever quit

He has backfired on them big time

7. Since he has not been fired for all the outrageous stuff he has done
he thinks he is "it". I wish after the November election he is kicked out. But as long as he screws up I am glad he is there.

8. I'm torn...
Is the incredible tone deafness better or worse than the self loathing inherent in this gaff?

9. She has a safe seat. That is probably why they picked her. Because she can't loose so
they can use her as target practice still once the election is over.

10. He thinks it's okay for him to make racial statements since he's black.
What a lowlife. He's not better than Beck and Limpballs.

11. Mr. Steele should be careful not to say such things
to the Speaker's face.

She'd likely deck his ass in one swing.

12. Steele is a remakrably stupid man...

14. I wonder does he stays up all night and think what he is going to say to the press?
you can't imagine him being Lt Governor (however you coudn't imagine Palin being governor).
