Steele On Health Reform Bill: 'I'm Tired Of Congress Flipping The Bird' At The American People

By definition Armey can't be a "grass roots" leader. He's establishment from jump street. Like that matters.... After all, what's in a name anyway?

"that sounded like it could have come from the podium at at tea party rally"
That's because he is really a tea partier in disguise...

"promises to get revenge"
Is he serious? Revenge, really!!! Wow, what a nutcase.

"I intend to have my foot on the throat of the Democrats on this issue [health care reform],"

And how exactly does he plan to do that. he has absolutely no power or clout. No self respecting Democrat cares what he has to say. What an embarrassment to the RNC.

I mean really, who does he think he is and why does he want to lead this "fight" over something that helps the American people. I know - dumb question!!!

Mikee, I hate to say this to you bud, but you really are a joke. And a pretty darn good one at that. Thanks for the laughs man...

And this just in - The AMA has endorsed the Senate bill. You know Mikee, you may be "getting tired" of the so called "Flipping the Bird" (although it's actually being flipped at you and you ilk), but long standing organizations (unlike the flash in the pan, fly by night tea partiers) AARP, AMA, and other highly respected organizations are endorsing this (as well as getting tired of your desperate, fear mongering, hate filled rhetoric).

Kind of makes you feel a bit lonely there, doesn't it Mikee???

Has Mr. Steele ever been asked by the press about the small but vocal wing of the teabaggers that protests with signs like, "Take back White America" and so on?

Yes, it's not *all* the teabaggers, but the racist sentiment is still there. Does he just try to ignore them?

Mr. Steele has actually admitted that many of the teabaggers are afraid of him because he's a brother. Of course Steele is no brother. He's an Uncle Tom toady. The guy's a joke and so are the teabaggers. How much longer is the press going to bother reporting on these idiots.

Shocking... former House GOP leader Dick Armey says he likes the GOP.

Dear Jesus, this astroturfing is making me ill.

There has been absolutely no indication whatsoever that the GOP has changed one iota from 2003 or 2006 or 2008.

This guy has been a joke since he was the Lt. Gov. of Maryland.

But you're clearly not tired of Americans flipping the bird at you and your ridiculous party.

liberty?? what kind of platform is liberty??

they just keep screaming about their freedoms....what in the world are they talking about??

It would be great if the Dems could figure out some low-key and unobtrusive way to support and/or promote the more extreme Tea Party groups that are attacking the GOP as the party of sell outs -- like the Republicans quietly worked behind the scenes to help Nader and the Green Party in 2004.

The GOP is terrified that Tea Partiers will desert them for even crazier people. Erego, fake teapartier Republican Dick Armey to the rescue. Let the GOP be known as the teabagger party from now on. That should put off a lot of people and if nothing else, get lazy Democrats to the polls in 2010.

Repubs really picked a boob for chair this time. No shortage of unhinged socios in that party.
