RNC Chairman Michael Steele to Joe Scarborough: "Spare Me"

Joe Scarborough disagrees with RNC chairman Michael Steele's suggestion of tort reform, which prompts Steele to say to Joe, "Spare me."

Steele suggests he doesn't want the government to make medical decisions for him, and Scarborough agrees with Steele that rushing the bill is "politically reckless... At the same time, just saying no and not having a long-term approach is also politically reckless."

"No one is saying no," Steele responds. Let's stop that political talking point."

We pick it up from where Donny Desutch asks Steele to give an answer on healthcare, and Steele responds, "I'll give you three." He then appears to go from one to "number three" and "I'll give you an extra one." Does the RNC chairman not know how to count, either?

@concious2 And Obama spoke openly about being in favor of tort reform. And thats even as a candidate. Repubs are completely full of shit, and to be honest, Steele has only acted so dishonest and clownish as RNC Chairman. They muzzled him and scripted him, he was never allowed to say how he really feels about anything. Before and after chairmanship he talks real Republican principles, many that I agree with. As Chairman, it seemed his job was to only attack and demean others, and he sucks at it.

I love how he says democrats cut Medicare and Medicaid. They didn't cut benefits, that's what is important. They act as though they loved them but just had fiscal problems now they essentially want to eliminate them. Ask poor and disabled people and seniors if they like the changes it's no

[concious2]

portability, isn't that the same as out of state health care systems being able to promote in all states? Co-ops- isn't that what President Obama talked about ? Deduct their health care if not getting it through employer- can't you do that already?

I could not help but notice that you are gangster. I'm pretty gangster myself.

The answer is THE PUBLIC OPTION.

Tort reform will do little.

Steele, you say "I release my supporters and exit stage right" and "I resign my post" You must be JOKING. You didn't have enough VOTES to win a 2nd term which is the reason why you are "exiting stage right", and how is it that you are "releasing" anyone you fuckin narcissistic bastard. You're NOT realeasing anyone, they are RELEASING YOUR PATHETIC AS.

NOW GET LOST AND DON'T COME BACK, AND DON'T LET THE DOOR HIT YOU IN THE ASS ON YOUR WAY OUT, YOU DELUSIONAL JOKER.
