Oh yeah, what about the RNC staff hanging up on Conservatives all day who were calling in to complain? Explain that, Steele, while you’re at it...!

See the left is winning... as they always have done... they incite... give them the fuel and they will run with it... let it die and they have nothing....

What about not challenging Hughley on the Nazi Party statement Mr. Steele?

If anybody’s convention looked like Nazi Germany, it was O’s, with all of the chanting and euphoria.

Our convention was dull, with the only highlight being the beautiful breath of fresh air, Sarah Palin.

What about Steele nodding in agreement when Hughley said the republican party looked like a ‘bunch of nazi’s’( or something similar)? I see Steele did not apologize for that!

He needs to!

Rush had his “A Game” today, but is still man enough and smart enough to accept the apology from Steele.

I'm glad that Michael Steele saw his error, however
I had higher expectations than for him to be star struck
by a CNN host. OMG!

Ideology aside, a lesson to Michael Steele: Don’t take on someone who gets paid to talk for three hours per day - he’ll always have the last word!

Hey Steele, what were you doing on that loopy show in the first place? Ya lay down with dogs....

Problem is that the RNC won't have the gumption to get rid of Steele and they've just cut their donations in half. They are so hosed, no message, no money and a doofus they can't get rid of.

That’s a step in the right direction. Let’s see what happens next.

I’m ok with giving the guy a break. Remember President Reagan’s 11th commandment.

Let’s not shoot our own soldiers. Steele admits he made a mistake-— give him the benefit unless or until he shows that weakness again. Rush is a teacher and hopefully a valuable lesson was learned. Let’s not trash Steele too badly for an admitteed screw up.

Sorry, but this makes Steele even look weaker. We need someone with cojones to lead the RNC, not a backstabber like Steele. He had no business going on Hugley’s CNN show and speaking ill of Rush behind his back. I don’t buy the fake apology. Steele is only interested in saving his own skin.

Steele’s the one that goofed up. He shouldn’t have went on some stupid ass show in the first place and he certainly shouldn’t have been calling a prominent conservative incendiary and ugly and letting Nazi Party comments about Republicans just fly by and slightly nodding his head in agreement.

“The Republican Party has turned into the Rush Limbaugh Party.”

Actually, that would be the best thing to happen to the republican party in decades. One can only hope.

Michael Steele is jealous that Rush has a much larger following than he does. As far as I'm concerned, Rush is the true voice and the true representative of conservatism.

I knew this would happen...next time you go on a talk show or news program and another “brotha” tries to turn you against Limbaugh...I want to hear you scream from the mountain tops, that Limbaugh is a force to be reckoned with and is right 98.8% of the time.

“Too damn late, Steele. Too damn late.”

So was he crossing his fingers behind his back when he was trash talking Rush or when he was apologizing in response to the outcry for having done so?

Ain’t no puttin’ that toothpaste back in the tube, Mikey.
