Former Republican Party Chairman Michael Steele ripped his party for pushing back hard on President Obama’s immigration plans with a firm demand that they “get a grip.”

Appearing on MSNBC, he said he would advise the GOP to work with the previously passed Senate comprehensive immigration reform bill.

Did you ever here Michael Steele state these things when he was the Chairman of the GOP?

No, neither did I.

Apparently they are all liars.

Saying what you want to here, while scheming behind the scenes against yours and my best interests.

Donna Brazile comes to mind: Michael Steele, another superannuated Republicrat hack!
With friends like Steele, we conservatives don’t need enemies. But like Boehner and Obama, he was dug in so tight, like a fat tick, I didn’t think we’d ever be free of his nonsense.

Get a grip, because you’re sounding tone deaf here

Michael Steele seems tone deaf if you ask me. I'm quite sure that the Republican party wasn't handed control of Congress by the American people because the American people were overwhelmingly in support of amnesty or anything else that barack Obama is offering for that matter. We weren't elected to compromise, we were elected to resist and resist we shall.

Michael Steele hasn’t a clue as to what is going on. How did these clowns ever get anywhere?

Having a token leader didn’t do much to help the party.
