"All Those Problems"

OK, I promised myself I wouldn't kick around Michael Steele again, but I can't help it; it's just too tempting.

He was just on Wolf Blitzer's show. When asked about Trent Lott's election as Senate Minority Whip, and why he fell from grace a few years back, Steele says he'll make a great leader. He also says he forgives him for those unfortunate comments he made about why Strom Thurmond should have been elected President in 1948; apparently, humoring another man's racism is just something you do at birthday parties. Of course, it helps if you're a stone-cold racist yourself.

I also learned that he nothing to do with the deceptive sample ballots the Republicans passed out to African-American areas of Maryland; this despite his having claimed credit for the scheme earlier this week.

Amazing, such moral idiocy on display...
