All I can think of is back when Michelle Bachman was shouting out loud "you da man." As much as I may completely disagree with everything Steele supports a small part of me feels some sympathy for the guy. It just seems so... patronizing and embarassing for the guy.

I don't understand. I wasn't disagreeing with the poster. I was tossing out something only slightly related. An observation. I do not understand the profanity or the implication that I am disagreeing (or even care) about Michael Steele. But I DO think that Bachmanns stupid shouting exemplifies something of a confused crypto-racist complex within the GOP.

11. I always use profanity. It is my thing. But I don't see it as embarrassing

for him because he's correct. The fact that he's an idiot. Now that is embarrassing.

5. Close. They *dislike* him because he's black.

They ignore his direction because he's black. They have no respect for him because he's black. I don't think they *fear* him because he's black.

8. funny both because Steele seems to believe that Obama hates him for the same reason
and because the right always accuses the left of being afraid of black people.

12. They don't fear him, they use him, and he's too dense to see it.
