If that's the case, perhaps he needs to stay away from snake pits like CNN and stay behind a podium in front of friendly audiences.

Steele went on that show with the intent to pander to the african-american vote. He succeeded. Hughley could have sprayed the words "honky" and "cracker" around all night and Steele would have agreed becuase that's what he was there for.

I wonder if Mr. Steele would have said anything if they had a pile of oreo cookies sitting on the desk.
WHERE IS THE OUTRAGE
I am outraged that Hughley called the people at the CPAC convention, Nazis. I will call and email the RNC and let them know how I feel about Mr. Steele. I will also call and email CNN and demand that Hughley be fired. And I will call and email Mitt Romney (CPAC) and let him know comments like this can't go unanswered.
That radio show host (can't think of his name) was fired for calling a black girls basketball team “nappy headed”. This is worse, much worse and I may be alone but I'M NOT GOING TO TAKE IT ANYMORE.
I'm proud to be a conservative and I'm really tired of seeing conservatives being hit in the face with pies, having oreo cookies thrown at them, being attacked when they are on stage and being called every name in the book. We've sat back long enough and have done nothing. It's time we did something to stop the hateful, vile, revolting actions and comments directed at us.
Free Republic has a huge following. We have a voice. Let's come together and use that voice to stop the attacks on our beliefs.

And...to nysuperdoodle and Evil Conservative Radio.
Michael Steele is the head of the RNC not CPAC and not the Republican party....Rush is (LOL)
