Equal Pay for Women: Morning Joe’s Mika Brzezinksi Calls Shenanigans on Michael Steele

Republicans are the worst. Seriously. They are the worst. Equal pay for women is a simple concept. What’s not to love about it? If Beth and Joe both work at the same job, then Beth and Joe should get paid the same amount of money. That’s it! It’s simple. But…

Mika Brzezinksi to Michael Steele on equal pay for women: ‘You got nothin’!’

Michael Steele: Romney can’t clinch the nomination before the convention

Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney’s campaign has taken to proclaiming that the math is on his side, and that even if he loses some primaries by narrow margins his count of delegates will continue growing.

Michael Steele to Dan Choi: LGBT rights aren’t like black rights

Former Republican National Committee (RNC) chairman Michael Steele on Tuesday said he didn’t “appreciate” the comparison between laws banning interracial marriage to laws that prevent same sex couples from marrying.

Michael Steele, the RNC’s man of mystery, asks for private jet, does research in bondage-theme club

Michael Steele sure knows how to conduct research for his party. In an incredible, ballsy maneuver, given his effectiveness as the lackey head of the RNC, Steele actually tried to convince his masters colleagues that he needed a private jet to set up his DJ MixMaster set conduct business. “I…

Our Embarrassing White People Are In No Way Associated With That Embarrassing Black Man

The organizers of CPAC are hipping that mufucka up (is that what the kids say these days?) with some videogames and snacks. We’re gonna have the most popular games. There’ll be Guitar Hero. There’ll be Dance Revolution. There’ll be Call of Duty,” said Kevin McCullough, the radio host who created…

Thank heavens for Michael Steele

Things are looking pretty bleak right now. The Republicans have made it clear they intend to filibuster all Democratic legislation on principle—the principle that the recent elections signal nothing but a blip in a system that’s meant to be one-party rule, and they are therefore obligated to resist these interlopers…

Steele on RNC platform: “One Of The Best” Political Documents In 25 Years, “Honest Injun On That”

Something is dreadfully wrong with Michael Steele. His gaffe meter is so off the charts. We learn yet again that it is painfully difficult for Republicans to avoid heinous, hoary, ethnical/racial slurs on camera. The ignorant, it burns…(Media Matters): On Fox News last night, Sean Hannity hosted RNC Chairman Michael…

The GOP: Not Good At Internets

The new GOP.com launched today. Within the past twelve hours, they’ve managed to post all the admin info on the site and launch Michael Steele’s blog, which is not-at-all-insultingly-named “What Up?”, because Michael Steele is apparently your black neighbor on an 80s sitcom. But they’re winning at Twitter!…

Michael Steele’s RNC tied to web site that promoted military coup against the President

Now how are the Republicans going to say that it's just a few nuts out there trolling against the POTUS? Michael "MC" Steele shoots out press releases all day long (trust me, they land in my inbox then most I laugh at and then hit the delete button), but somehow…
