They can’t stand it.

Republicans, you see, are the party of racist bigots, therefore the election of Michael Steele as the Republican National Committee Chairman is nothing but smoke and mirrors, racism hiding behind some sort of camoflage, a scam to get over on voters. I was wondering how long it would take for the Dems to start picking Steele apart.

Looks like they got right on it:

“Are Republicans now picking Democrats to run the RNC?” a DNC member asks. “Shouldn’t they pick someone who was proud to run as a Republican?”

He was caught hiring homeless people to hand out literature (misleading literature at that) in African American neighborhoods during that same campaign.

“If that is their national strategy to broaden their appeal to minority voters,” emailed another Democratic source, “it’s going to get awfully expensive…..”

Wait….as far as I can tell, Steele is nothing BUT an unabashed Republican. Of course, that doesn’t stop the Dems from babbling this sort of nonsense, nor does it stop them from criticizing Steele for hiring “homeless” to hand out literature for his campaign, completely ignoring the glaring fact that ACORN did the same thing during this past election. And much, much more of it.

These people are shameless. Utterly, completely shameless.

But, wait, there’s more fun. Check out this litany of petty criticisms against Steele:

More facts were pointed out by Judd Legum, Hillary Clinton’s former research director and now heavily entrenched in Maryland politics:

“Steele compared stem cell research to Nazi experiments during the Holocaust.”

“Steele was endorsed by Mike Tyson during his run for Senate. When Tyson, who used to be married to Steele’s half sister, pleaded no contest to assault in Montgomery County in 1998, Steele was on hand to support him.”

“Steele defended former Gov. Bob Ehrlich’s decision to hold a $100,000 fundraiser at a country club that did not allow non-white members, saying that the club’s membership’s policies were “not an issue” because “I don’t play golf.”

Finally, a reader points out that Steele failed in his only attempt to pass the Maryland Bar exam. “This is a joke,” the reader wrote, “isn’t it? Michael (can’t pass bar exam) Steele, about to become RNC chairman?”

Mike Tyson? Mike Tyson? Good Lord, the man is barely sentient. Why in the wide wide world of sports would anyone care who he endorsed? Come on, folks (meaning you Dem Droids out there), you’ll have to do better than that. Mike Tyson. Yeesh.

Anyway, you can bet the farm that this is only the beginning. They’re going to go after Steele like they went after Palin (maybe not quite to that extreme, but go they will). And they’re still slamming Palin by the way. And it won’t stop, at least not until the Republicans find a way to get a candidate-in-a-jar, one without a past and who is absolutely pure and mistake proof, just open and elect. Perfection. You know, like a Democrat.

They are, after all, perfect. If you don’t believe them, just ask them.
