Memo to Michael: The Freepers Are Just Not That Into You

By Sniffles

We cats have refrained from saying much about Michael Steele's recent re-emergence — although we were mighty tempted by his failure to show at the GOP-Bobby Jindal gig the other night.

However, now that the madcap right-wingers at Free Republic have weighed in on his latest antics, we simply have to share.

The failed Maryland Senate candidate and Rush Limbaugh boot-licker has told CNN that he'd "consider" running for President. This comment, and Steele's claim that his Limbaugh dust-up was all part of a cunning plan, has made the Freepers go wild.

As usual, their reactions to such patent silliness are miles better than anything we liberal cats could add. So allow us to get out of the way and Let The Rage Begin.

"Not only NO, but HELL NO!"

"What a charade. He should be so good and step down. It’s embarrassing."

"Is this guy for real? What a bufoon [sic]."

"This idiot needs to be booted out of the RNC leadership NOW."

"So, the Chair of the RNC thinks Rush is the enemy?"

"I wish Rush would get some conservative celebrities together and just start a new party, frankly. The GOP is moribund."

"What are the rules for a recall? We need to take immediate action before Steele totally screws the 2010 elections."

"Steele is nuts. Totally nuts, just like his fellow RINO, McCain."

Wow, tough crowd. But hang in there, Michael Steele! From our perspective, your cunning plan is working just fine.
