Purge? RNC's Steele Says Renegades May Be Cut Off

[BeantownJim]

O.B.A.M.A. = One Bad Ass Mistake America

[mgband]

This is the second time I saw this, so I will give this the same treatment as the first time:

*golf clap*

I would like to take this opportunity to congratulate your genius and originality. With ingenuity like that, you should write a book.

/sarcasm

[kambion]

zealots...95 percent of republican senators are douche bag dicks

[dhulnun80]

yea baby.  lool.

[mousegonemad]

"I´m open to anything, baby".... what kind of poliicians have you got over there?

[rickamabob13]

Let's see:

56 Democrats 1 Independent(B. Sanders caucuses w/ dems. 1 Ind Dem(Liebermann caucus w/ dems. 1 unresolved(prob. will be Franken-D) 3 alienated republicans(Collins, Snowe, Specter)

Keep it up Steele by the time Minn seats Franken you will have pushed there 3 alienated republican senators across the aisle and give the democrats a possible 62 votes.

[Ender1zero1]

removed my comment because frankly Steele doesn't deserve the thought I put into it. Yea Baby.

[coffeenuts44]

Just like organized crime when one of there own steps out of line.  Lets see if they pull the magic bullet out for 2010 before the Dems do by legalizing pot.

[FreeAgain2]

When RINO Republicans vote for what is basically anti-republican programs - they should lose republican support.

[chick5581]

I really liked how clear the picture is on your video. Did you use a regular digital camera or did you use something more high tech? Lol, my videos never turn out that claer.

[Deepstarr7020]

Are they on a first name basis ? This guy keeps calling him Michael and that shows lack of respect, Fox News republicans they don't even respect each other.

[andrew19k]

It's scary that people want to eliminate healthy opposition in this country. One party, One rule. You people don't know what your doing. So fucking sad.

[Deepstarr7020]

In what way is your statement relative to mine?

[Jazbon]

Anyone else notice that Steele sounds like such a puppet? He sounds like he's just waiting to be told what to do ... doesn't make decisions by himself he just follows the lead of his GOP buddies. I bet he loves cashing in that paycheck.

[iamtoothewalrus]

Just what f$cking country are we living in when the Republicans start threatening their own party members!

Unreal, the GOP just continues to sink to new depths, how can anyone support these clowns.

Is this God Bless America or Nazi Germany?!

[seriously63]

More dangerous than Bush.

[bktennis2006]

So Michael Steele would cut off funds to the Republicans' last hopes of having any representation in New England, cut off funds to the only senators preventing the Democrats from having 60 seats or more? Sounds brilliant...if you secretly want to help the Dems out. If they cut off funds, watch Susan Collins, Olympia Snowe and Arlen Specter run as independents, win, and then caucus with the Democrats.

The Republicans are becoming more and more irrelevant every day.

[Chick6517]

This is an awesome video! There needs to be more videos like this!!! Theres a lot of videos out there that are a whole bunch of nonsense now a days. Can you upload some more?

[VerbotenDingleberry]

We already own 2010. Now, if they'll just purge the RINO's (roughly half of these idiots) we may actually be allowed off the Liberal Democrat Fascist Plantation some day...

[annarboriter]

yeah, you go right ahead and punish those Mainers because you cannot think of anything else of relevance to do!

[ACK365]

I love it - same old shit with Cavuto and the new idiot republican - good luck in 2010 LOL

[RonPaulGeorgeRingo]

Steele is a nice enough guy but the LAST thing this country needs is yet ANOTHER Republican leader INCAPABLE of seeing BEYOND "Reagan" (CREDIT CARD "conservatism").

The GOP has been a joke for so long. One man (Ron Paul) has the ability to see think OUTSIDE the (self-imposed) Reagan box. The other 99% are clueless. But then I consider Ron Paul a libertarian more than a Republican. He's too smart for that gang of idiots.

[rmsolom]

RonPaulGeorgeRingo: I agree w/your points. Especially about Regan. It's like he has been raised to the stature and level of deity almost while everyone totally forgets Regan's contribution to the EXPANSION of government and the RAISING of TAXES during his time...

The Republicans all seem to be walking down a slippery slope.

[oldtownkid]

GOPers have their idol, Ronald Reagan. Democrats new  found idol is Barack Obama, and there's a small group, growing at a fast pace, the neo-libertarians/constitutiona­lists/true conservatives, they found their idol too. His name is Ron Paul. Seems like in America we are forgetting about principles and we keep building bronze idols to worship. I guess we need to put a human face to our principles, or maybe we expect some guy to be our daddy or something. what's going on?

[eqhammerkeg]

I ALREADY CHANGE my parties.

You want REAL (pro-liberty) conservatives to elect FAKE conservatives.

I already seen the outcome of that:

1. Multiple Wars

2. Loss of Civil Rights/LIberties

3. Record Debt

Been there. Done that. I am vote Democrat.

[GodKillerAtheist]

hint of gay from steel

[Richardgwm]

This man is a fool.

[dhulnun80]

Yea, baby - lool.

[47f0]

Do you smell that? It's burning neo-cons, son. Nothing else on the world smells like that. I love the smell of neo-cons roasting in the morning

[Cheshirecatmeow1]

...What?

I wish he would sound more educated, then people might take him more seriously.

[onlywinter]

Exactly!

"Baby." hahaha!

[dogstar7]

Pretty soon we will have to pay sideshow barkers to peek in the tent to get a look at GOP true believers!

[JBeatty17]

Just keep shooting yourself in the foot, GOP. At this rate, you'll never be in the White House again.

[sachaput]

I think if there is a close race for the governorship the RNC will hand over the necessary funds, or figure out some way to get it to the three outcasts but be able to keep their distance.

It would simply be cutting off their nose to spite their face!

[lamouchemorte]

Steele is a moron.

[CynicalSavior]

Is it just me or should the word "baby" in that context never come out of a public figure's mouth? That was just disturbing...

"Oh yeah I'm open to everything baby."

Who the fuck are you? Chef from South Park?

[volumedealer1]

hahaha

Yeah,Obama is pulling this with slang for 20 years ago

it's like Peloski(sp) pulling out the Rick roll...fucking cheap

[darkchocosinger]

Obamas natural thats just how he talks, steele is forcing it. Its like my dad trying to HipHop. Steele has no MOJO, he sounds stupid.

[MapleTreeOfKnowledge]

I second that.

[SICKMINDED666]

or a drunk Madonna

[TheRagingCelt]

The RNC has the survival instincts of drunken lemmings.

[atripa645]

This firing squad is getting circular

[leftofcollegestation]

I thought he was supposed to lead not follow...

[wayne388]

There were several Democrats in the House who voted against the stimulus, yet you don't see the Democratic party making them outcasts. They are free to represent their districts as their constituents want them to. Apparently in the GOP one must toe the line or be forever punished.

[MidnightChimes]

Maybe those Senators ARE listening to the voters in their state. He's talking about Maine and Pennsylvania.

[fishhead06]

Narrow and ideological! Yay! The GOP is marginalizing itself!

[Karlfalcon]

They're only hurting themselves, and they can't even see that. All they care about is rhetoric and playing to their ultra-conservative base.

250 years ago do you know who were considered "Conservative?" British loyalists.

All they care about is the Status Quo. Keep the system in place because it's good for them.

[cobmojo]

He needs to make way for the new progressive era.

[MooseOfReason]

"I'm open to everything, baby."

Hahahaha.

Duncanisms. "Get ready to get knocked over!"

[kcp12304]

still trying to keep that hand on the lever of power

[entropyfu]

moderates will be cut off

[gplex86]

This may cause the Republican party to go the way of the Whigs and the Federalists.

We may have a period of time with just one functioning political party (it's happened before in this country). Eventually another party will emerge (Libertarians, maybe?) and we'll be back to the two-party system.

[Karlfalcon]

Came here to say this.

Bot God help us if Bob Barr is ever President...

[Nutrino2179]

Great plan, Steele. Further pare down the Republican party and increase the extent to which it is nothing more than an ideological cult that hasn't produced or embraced a new idea in thirty years. (Well, I guess I do have to give you preemptive warfare and the revival of medieval torture.) And do it while you're "taking the party beyond the cutting edge by applying Republican principles to urban/suburban hip-hop settings."

And comedians thought the end of Bush would bring them hard times.

[robinvan1983]

have the GOP been sleeping during politics class? they only have it 50% right. when you are the minority in the government, you take the no stance, but you also present a different plan to make you look better than the ruling party...... but the GOB forgot to do that last bit

[mikebee02]

Nail meets RNC Coffin. This will be sooo much fun to watch play out. So much for claiming bipartisanship next time around, and you can bet we won't be hearing about "Mavericks" from the right anytime soon.

[hyperrreal]

The new Republican motto seems to be "if you're already in a hole keep digging". Steele as GOP chairman is the Democrats dream come true.

[dralavant]

Micheal Steele reminds me of my friend's dad. He always acts like he's "Hip and Cool". Steele looks like a moron. Just when I thought the republicans made a smart move, we now come to find out he's just plain Stupid! "Government don't create jobs"? That's retarded! His own job was created by the Government.

[DeletedDelusion]

"... always open to everything baby"

I guess we have another case of, republican closet homosexual. LOL

I can't wait for the breaking news report.....

[CYLONEJACK]

Why does he keep saying "baby"? He reminds me of the movie "tropic thunder" for some reason lol.

[vertigate]

"... always open to everything baby" ?? What is he, the motown pimp?

[crimsong19]

So Steele isn't going to give funding to the 3 GOP senators who voted for the stimulus? Jeez! So you won't give money to those who want to help other people who are experiencing hard economic troubles?!

[PoliticalSkeptic]

this clip was almost useless. That's the problem with some of TPM's videos. They are so short that it's hard to get the full context of the video. even 1.5 minutes should have been enough for me to get a decent picture.

[azas1949]

baby - what a dork !

[SubmarinerAndroid]

It's a dork-off.

Cavuto vs. Steele: One will fail. The other will lose.

[biggerflexible]

So I guess the GOP was like grab ANY black guy crazy or not lolololololololol I thought Sarah Palin was the end but I was wrong.

[ramone2185]

what's even funnier is that they're seriously considering making sarah palin their party leader. just amazing

[a2zdiy]

"they're seriously considering making sarah palin their party leader"

...YES! oh, please, oh please DO!

[SubmarinerAndroid]

They need to bring back Alan Keyes in a big way. He's the all-time champion crazy Black Republican. Keyes on a ticket with Palin or Jindal would be sweet.

[biggerflexible]

Alan Keyes is a very sick man, he will be in my prayers. We all are witnessing the end of the Republican party and North American capitalism. Prepared for the Soviet Union Of the United States lol.

[dogstar7]

Oh Yes! Plee-e-e-ese run Alan Keys as the GOP's Great Black Hope on a Palin/Keys ticket in 2012

Bahahahahaha!
