Republican National Committee Chairman Michael Steele said Sunday that he has been in rooms with white Republicans who are “scared” of him.

Responding during a interview to TV One’s Roland Martin, who said that “white Republicans have been scared of black folks,” Steele replied: “You’re absolutely right.”

[Halfmanhalfamazing]

Can we recall this guy already?

When is enough enough?

[junta]

Promoted to his highest level of incompetance.

[cripplecreek]

Not scared, Just disgusted with lying, manipulative, bottom feeding RINOs.

[silverleaf]

I’m scared of him alright. Who would want to join the party if this was the best we had to offer as leadership. Yo.

[CodeToad]

They need to get rid of Steele, he’s a racist.

[two-edged-sword]

Man’s an Idiot. This will make friends, NOT!

[norge]

Where is the “Aw Jeez” guy?

[personalaccts]

We’re not scared of him it’s his decisons that scare me. $900,000 to Dede is one of them.

[Mad_Tom_Rackham]

Does this fool work for the DNC on the side?

[Sister_T]

I second your comment.

[Halfmanhalfamazing]

[swatbuznik]

Oh, for crying out loud. Does this mean he just got the position because he was black? We really need to shake these people out.

[sodpoodle]

This topic has appeared a dozen times or more.

Perhaps Michael Steele was trying to describe what Glenn Beck’s audience/participants did so eloquently.

White people have been brainwashed to feel *afraid* of saying something patronizing or hurtful to anyone of a different race or culture.

Americans have been divided by an insidious liberal press & diabolical Democratic Party in order to maintain power. We are now bashing Michael Steele for some perceived racial comment.

Grow up!!!!

[MHGinTN]

No Michael, you're just a disgusting rino to be spurned.

[DManA]

Huh. That makes me want to sit right down and write the party a big fat check. Not.

[beaversmom]

Do we still have FReepers that love him? I don’t know how many times our illustrious spokesperson can put his foot in his spokesmouth and still be defended. He especially loves to go on with CNN blacks and yuck it up. He let the Hugely comment of the Republican Naztional Convention looking like a Nazi gathering completely go by unchallenged.

[DManA]

Imascared of him all right. Imascared he’s a democrat plant.

[Marty62]

Ok time for a new RNC Chairman.
he acts like he is afraid of the msm too.

[Iscool]

What a racist pig...

[Gay State Conservative]

We're not scared of you,Mr Steele.I,and those like me,represent the heart and soul of the Republican Party.Unlike some,we don't work "inside the beltway",don't belong to country clubs,don't have homosexual children,etc.

If we,the heart of the Party,believe that Party leaders are doing a good job we'll let them know by voting Republican,donating Republican,working Republican and praising those leaders.

Recent results/events...including 2008 and NY 23,suggest that the leadership ain't doin' so hot.

[Mr. K]

THAT’S IT!!!!

FOR A STUPID STATEMENT LIKE THAT HE NEEDS TO RESIGN IMMEDIATELY

[Mac from Cleveland]

white Republicans have been scared of black folks

Maybe it's because they've destroyed nearly every big city in this country, as well our schools, our culture, the military, the government/civil service, and now the Presidency--all we get is crime, squalor, ignorance, big mouths yapping, a million excuses--and yet, it's considered a crime to even point it out.

Steele is a total loser--Google his GQ interview from last year--he is a complete moron.

[True Republican Patriot]

YES! Mr. Steele, We are Terrified of You!!NOT because You are Black, but because You are a Bumbling FOOL Who is screwing the Republican Party Up Far Beyond Recognition!

[norge]

LOL, thank you!!!

[ought-six]

“Promoted to his highest level of incompetance (sic).”

That’s a fact.

[DManA]

Steele shouldn’t feel *afraid* of saying something patronizing and hurtful to white folks, he should feel *ashamed*.

Did any one else get nice sky blue donation envelope with “PAST DUE”. 2 weeks ago I received a donation letter, on the outside of the envelope for the world to see “PAST DUE” in big red letters. I am not even a re-pelican. Not affiliated with any party at all. I have e-mailed and mailed them twice, not friendly responses, telling them to LEAVE ME ALONE. My husband quickly sat down and penned this, To Republican National Committee: 11/04/09

You recently sent a letter to my wife asking for money. On the envelope, in red letters, it said “PAST DUE”. Past due for what? My wife is not a registered Republican but I am (soon not to be). She could not believe that you had the gall to send her something that said “PAST DUE” on it.
Here is a “PAST DUE” for the Republicans: You are “PAST DUE” for doing something with illegal immigration. You are “PAST DUE” about cleaning up the greed and corruption in the party. You are “PAST DUE” for standing up and supporting what is right for this country, not your special interests and re-election bids. If you won’t do what is right for America, we will vote you out. You are “PAST DUE” on holding up the Constitution. You are “PAST DUE” on decreasing the size of government. Our freedoms are at stake here.
You spend $900,000 supporting RINO Dede and then she withdraws costing the conservative votes. What a shame!! Do you want me or my wife to support that? No way!! We are conservatives. It’s time to get the RINO’s out of the party and turn to the roots of conservatism. We in America are angry and fed up with the politicians. The spending has to stop now.
If you want our money and support, put in a candidate that makes us feel good about them, not someone who the “leaders” of the party support.

Sincerely,

[stylecouncilor]

Hey Steele-being a dolt has nothing to do with skin color!!!

[Tupelo]

No Brotha. You are mistaking disgust for fear.
But then, I no longer consider myself a Republican, so I guess my disgust with you and your party cannot be considered fear.

[True Republican Patriot]

Will someone please E-Mail a copy of this thread to the bumbling FOOL, Mr. STEELE!! He needs to read it, and I am sure he is NOT bright enough to find this thread on his own!
His latest fund raising stunt is to mail you an envelope stamped in RED! “PAYMENT OVERDUE!” if you have not responded in the past with a contribution! This is a ploy guaranteed to make “BLOOD SPURT OUT OF YOUR YES!” and P*SS ONE OFF BEYOND COMPREHENSION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Mr. STEELE, You are NOT ONLY a FOOL and a BUMBLING IDIOT! but You are IGNORANT!! HELL WILL FREEZE OVER BEFORE YOU GET A DIME! Mr. STEELE!!!!!!

[CASchack]

For some reason, Michael Steele feels the need to play to his audience. Just as he had thrown Rush under the bus....

[beaversmom]

If I get something from the RNC, I'm going to write on it--"Sorry, I'm scared of Michael Steele. Scared that he's going to say something stupid again". He's supposed to be out there promoting conservatism and the Republican party. Instead he makes a stupid ass statement, once again, like this which paints Republicans as a bunch of fearful, hateful racists. Way to go idiot. How many more donations did you just blow? Glad you got to tear us down with a frickin' CNN liberal. Hope it felt good to have a second of agreement with Roland Martin. If they do get rid of him, what do you want to bet he stabs the party in the back big time. If he's doing it as the party charirman, you know darn well it's going to be big payback time if they get rid of the idiot.

[Cedric]

This is an old story, plus you have misrepresented it.

That says a lot more about you than it does about Mr. Steele.

[Cedric]

He wasn’t promoted, he was elected.

[TomGuy]

Further proof that the GOP wants to be more like the Dems?

Steele uses the race card — against some in his own party.

[The GOP needs to buy a clue.]

[True Republican Patriot]

Hi! Yes, I received the same as well, TWICE!! It ried to call twice and luckily No One answered, I was so Furious!Please see my response # 30..:-) to the Bumbling and IGNORANT FOOL! YEP! I am referring to Mr. STEELE!! WE would be better off with Reverend Sharpton and Reverend Jackson heading up OUR PARTY!

[South40]

Michael Steele: Some white GOP 'scared of me'

I'm black, Michael, and I think you're an asshole.

[Cedric]

That’s not what he did.

Go read the entire original story.

[cripplecreek]

WE would be better off with Reverend Sharpton and Reverend Jackson heading up OUR PARTY!

At least they would have the manhood to hate us honestly.

[freeangel]

Hey, playing the race card works for obama—steele is just following in his footsteps. It couldn’t possibley be because he’s not a conservative.

[NurdlyPeon]

Maybe it's because they've destroyed nearly every big city in this country, as well our schools, our culture, the military, the government/civil service, and now the Presidency--all we get is crime, squalor, ignorance, big mouths yapping, a million excuses--and yet, it's considered a crime to even point it out.

You're right, they are, but in the end, they're just puppets. It's still the liberals pulling the strings.

[AuntB]

“Does this fool work for the DNC on the side?”

There is likely more of that going on than anyone of us would like to admit.

[cripplecreek]

My racist butt was pulling for Ken Blackwell.

[narses]

Scared of the damage an affirmative action RINO can do, yes.

[Mr Ramsbotham]

Yes, Michael; I’m scared of you. And no, you can’t marry my sister.

[I see my hands]

What are the odds of a black man walking through a white neighborhood and living? What are the odds of a white man walking through a black neighborhood and living? Toss in whatever variables you like.

[cripplecreek]

I think a lot more Soros money infects the GOP than anyone wants to admit.

[ChildOfThe60s]

This is just plain over the top.

Now we have the RINOs playing the race card.

IMO this is showing how scared the RINOs are of the conservative uprising. These people are worried. AND, I believe they may very well be willing to destroy the party to keep conservatives from taking control.

[AuntB]

“I think a lot more Soros money infects the GOP than anyone wants to admit.”

You can bet there is some Mexican drug cartel money making it’s influence as well.

[freeangel]

“My racist butt was pulling for Ken Blackwell”

As for me, Herman Cain would do just fine.
