Michael Steele is an idiot!

[108]

1. Steele is a tool, Shep needs to move MSNBC

[ej510]

2. You have to love the fact that Steele wants even less

regulation even though the insurance industry has fucked us time and time again.

[ecstatic]

8. Welcome to DU, but Shep needs to stay put

MSNBC isn't even available on basic cable and I think fnc should at least have one half-way sane voice on their network.

14. Comments like those from Shep have to cause Wingnut head explosions ...

... when they slip out.

[FarLeftFist]

3. You gotta love how republicans run on a platform of Govt inefficiency

They tell people 'Govt is bad' and 'you can't trust the Govt' then turn around and expect people to vote for them into Govt.....Riiiight. Guilty conscience?

[Barbara2423]

6. good point.

[krkaufman]

13. Well, it certainly explains the results.

If someone doesn't believe that the government is capable of doing good, then they're going to abuse the system if/when they are put in charge.

[thunder rising]

4. I'm insulted: that moron (Steele) has a job with benefits and I'm unemployed.

[SF342]

5. Steele Quote.....

I am paraphrasing...but at approx. 5:00 Steele pretty much summed up the Republicans position.

"It is a flawed system ,to the extent that it has a human element to it."

I believe he just outed his parties position on this matter.

[ej510]

7. Repukes hate people unless you enjoy great wealth.

[AusDem]

11. good pick up

almost missed that, but went back to listen.......and yep, that pretty much sums it up.

[hmorehead]

9. It is amazing how much of a sell out Steele is just to be

kicked in the ass when he is unceremoniously dumped when the off year elections go badly for the GOP.

[Lenomsky]

10. True colours

06.24

"We don't believe that health care reform is in the best interest of the COMPANY *oops* country" LOL slipped up didn't he?

[WhoIsNumberNone]

17. Freudian slip

I was going to post on that particular point myself.

[Lenomsky]

19. Sorry!

Ahead of an old timer HA ;)

I like this forum .. learning lots .. so keep it coming :)

[WhoIsNumberNone]

20. Sorry? Nah- first come, first served.

One of the things I've learned here is to scan through the comments before I post- that way if someone's already said what I want to say, I don't look like an idiot by duplicating it.

Welcome to DU by the way.

[krkaufman]

12. Wow, Shep Smith nailed him right out of the gate!

"To a public option?" ... "Actually, the polls show that the American people want a public option."

Suh-lap! Steele set Shep up well, there.

[bjobotts]

15. Steele says you can't believe anything they put in writing??Repubs have done nothing for reform-ever

[bjobotts]

16. Don't get much more stupid than that.No matter what the bill says you can't believe it

[LiberalLovinLug]

18. His answer about helping the poor that now use emergency rooms

Should have been called out.

He says they could use some type of expanded medicade.....Uh Michael, isn't that a government run program?

What's the big leap from that to the government providing a public option to ALL those that can't get or afford a private plan? The GOP talk in circles. One minute they say America has the best system in the world, and the next they say they understand there is a problem and they want to fix it .... just not right now.

And his reaction to the 70% public option support polls is ridiculous. I've got some land....

Steele is embarrassingly exposing himself each day more and more as a sleezy Uncle Tom shill for big business and his old white money masters.

[WhoIsNumberNone]

21. Uncle Tom?

Michael Steele is the Republican party's lawn jockey.

(I have some potentially offensive photoshops on this subject: debated posting them- decided against it)
