Giggety indeed.

[Psalm 73]

"With any luck this scandal will take down Michael Steele!"

Yup - they should not only fire her, but fire whoever hired her in the 1st place - and fire whoever hired them, and let's go all the way up to......Michael Steele.

"Yeah, I’m no prude, but that’s something you do on your own credit card. You eat one (no pun intended) for the party. You do NOT bill this to the party."

That's right. There are other way to "reimburse" someone for politically untenable expenses. This was amateur hour at the GOP.

[TAdams8591]

Agreed. Well said.

[klute]

I have not been able to locate evidence of innocence or guilt.

[PaleoBob]

Fred is not historic.

---

Actually, closer to prehistoric.

[OldDeckHand]

"Fred is not historic."

No. But, with Steele at the helm much longer, the GOP just may be - relegated to history, that is.

[gathersnomoss]

He has a younger wife.

“”””Too many little things are starting to add up.Steele spending like a drunken sailor, defeatist attitude, etc”””””

Obviously you are a racist. /s

[Palladin]

Fred and his crowd are too Hollywood.

[Dusty Road]

Used to be you could by a vote for a pack of smokes.

[gathersnomoss]

The GOP has been history for quite some time.

[circlecity]

This should be the final straw. Steele is an absolute disaster. Despite drawing a lavish salery, he spends most of his time writning a book and giving paid speeches. He live very high on the hog, flying in chartered jets and being driven around in stretch limos. All on the donors’ dime. How many outrageous expenses are there we haven’t heard about?

[HANG THE EXPENSE]

From your lips to Gods ears.

[Rome2000]

Fired her?

They should have promoted her to Chairman and gotten rid of that incompetent cretin Michael Steele.

[OldDeckHand]

"Used to be you could by a vote for a pack of smokes."

Oh, you can still do that, as ACORN frequently proves. You can't, however attract $25K donations with a pack of Lucky Strikes.

Despite Obama's sagging poll numbers, the party is starving for cash. I'm sure the pressure is being felt by those who are responsible for shaking the money trees.

[WashingtonSource]

This is a calculated hit to damage Republicans. I won’t work.

[HANG THE EXPENSE]

Except that he is black and it will be called racist so he aint going anywhwere.I wish he would be fired though.

[exit82]

You do know why this thread is useless, doncha?

[Evil Slayer]

Fred Thompson for RNC Chairman

How about Karl Rove or Dick Cheney?
