Sorry Mr. Steele, “a grown ass black man” former president or not does not get a pass, is not immune from criticism, just because he is “a grown ass black man”.

Mr. Steele seems to think Obama is immune from public criticism just because he is “a grown ass black man”.

These types of people (women, minorities, etc.) want to be treated as equals by the Republican Party, but they ALWAYS go tribal at virtually every opportunity. They should look in the mirror as to why they aren’t trusted equally.

the whitest most uptight putatively black Republican since Colin Powell is breaking out the Ebonics in support of Obama?

Back during my bad days in Dayton OH, I was slaving away at a telemarketing boiler room.

One of the others there was a young black guy, clean and well-groomed, eloquent speaker with a better-than-average vocabulary, could clearly state rational positions on several issues of the day, and for all appearances leaned GOP.

But when asked about his vote, his voice suddenly changed and he replied (and this is a verbatim phonetic quote), "Obama, cuz I gots ta go wif da brothah..."

Race before party.

I can remember back in the day when former Presidents refrained from commenting on how or what their successors were doing.

Re: Judge Sullivan is frantic

The only reason he wants politically sympathetic lawyers to submit “friend of the court” briefs is because he has no idea how to write his own brief.

When I first saw the headline I thought it was a quote of someone important; then I saw who it was.

So Mr. Steele in your world can anyone speak to a grown ass black man and say anything without them being “disrespected” and it being racist, even when the grown ass black man is showing his ass and acting and behaving like a criminal. I think YOU and a lot of grown ass black man, along with any other colors need to be told when they are acting like aholes. It might do you some good...

Steele wants to remove all doubt as to why the RNC underperformed under his leadership.

Republicans reelected all their Senators and picked up six Senate seats. They retook the House, taking 63 seats in the House, the largest turnover in about 70 years.

This is what you get when you pick a RINO to lead the national party because you wanted a token.

What a loser this guy was/is. I think he is now to the left of "conservative" Jennifer Rubin.

became RNC chair due to liberal white guilt among GOP rank & file (and freepers)

How true. There are other incidents of promoting black men in hope of easing imagined guilt - take Colin Powell for instance, he ended up kissing Obama's ass purely based on race. Personally, I don't jump on the bandwagon for any politician unless there is a long and consistent record. Then it's based always based on record, not politics.

Underperformed.

2010 happened despite him. After ACA, the GOP should have taken more.
