Chairman of the Republican Party Michael Steele made some awkward comments about Obama’s policy in Afghanistan, irking the right wing. With reaction from the left no better, we see that the War in Afghanistan is simply not a left/right issue at all.

Michael Steele: The Democrats are the crazy irresponsible warmonger party!

DNC: YES! Yes we are! War is awesome and Republicans hate it because they are weak little babies! Ohgod this is the best day of MY ENTIRE LIFE!!!

The Democratic Party is the war party! The party of more war and the need for unquestioning allegiance to war. Its platform is never to look back. Always ignore history, and if you make a mistake, the only option left is to double down on the same mistake. It is unpatriotic to question our country’s foreign policy even if it has failed for a decade. Or in other words, the Democratic Party now proudly and fully embraces Karl Rove’s legacy.

It’s Michael Steele vs. Karl Rove in an epic battle for the soul – and the wallet – of the Republican Party!

Michael Steele thinks people criticize him because of his race. Not because he’s generally failed at everything he’s tried, not because he has embarrassed the RNC throughout his tenure. Because of his race.

The RNC is . . . bound . . . by its own unattainable perception of morality. HA!

The name on the reimbursement slip for around $2,000 in “meals” at a bondage-themed nightclub in West Hollywood is Erik Brown. Turns out the guy has a profile as a California political consultant.

Oh, Mister Steele, I know your chairmanship of the RNC is about to meet a brutal end, but on behalf of snarkaholics everywhere, I’m praying that you pull out a miracle win, just so we can be treated to more stories like this one: In an interview with RNC Chairman Michael Steele taped this week [...]

Yeah, this is pretty rich. Here’s a guy who promised to woo African American voters with fried chicken, refused to criticize Glenn Beck for saying that the president was a “white culture”-hating racist, and who just a few days ago dropped the Native American equivalent of “nigger” on national teevee.

As you may have heard already, yesterday was kind of a rough day for Republican National Committee chairman Michael Steele, capping a pretty rough week.
