Michael Steele, head of the RNC, has a proclivity for putting his foot in his mouth. In a time when republicans have the democrats on the run, Mr. Steele continues to shoot himself squarely in the foot. As a result, he gives fodder to the democrats and helps them to live to fight another day. Someone once opined that when your enemy is destroying himself, stay out of his way. Mr. Steele seems bent on helping the enemy. His several gaffs make me wonder if his staff reviews his speeches or if he speaks “off the cuff” or from some other place every time he speaks. I hope in the days to come that he will “think twice and speak once.”
While his comment about Afghanistan being Mr. Obama’s war was ill-timed, his other comments or lack of comments bother me even more. I recently wrote an article, “A Message to Michael” which discussed his inability to explain to a group of black students why they should be republicans bothered me even more. If our leader does not know why someone should not be a republican, should he be our leader?
The good news is that Mr. Steele’s term will expire around January 2011…the bad news is that Mr. Steele’s term will expire around January 2011.
Republicans will have the chance to take back the house and probably more seats in the senate. However, if our leader continues to speak such foolishness, we could end up continuing the nightmare in which we presently exist.
