Michael Steele

How would you like to be Michael Steele on a day like this? The guy is getting virtually nothing but ridicule for kowtowing to Rush Limbaugh. There's a lot of laughter today, a lot!

Oh, that has to be embarrassing. I know for myself alone, any little headache is magnified, like if someone looks at you funny, you think the whole town's in on it ... when they're not. But what if not just the whole town was in on it but the whole country and world? That would make for a very bad day! Steele;s not just incompetent, he's gutless, servile.

Bobby Jindal seems to have weathered his days of ridicule and scorn recently. All you have to do is drop out of sight for a few days till it essentially blows over. Try to say little about it. But even he was back in the news today, saying he thought it was a good thing that Steele apologized. A good thing? Give me a break. Apologies like this are never a good thing. It shows he's weak and spineless. If that's a good thing, may we have plenty more of it!

If I'm Rush Limbaugh I'm also embarrassed about it, but the actual Rush probably isn't. This is something I would think through were I him. Yes, Steele apologized. Yes, Jindal is cooing in your ear. Yes, Eric Cantor has his mouth shut for now. But Rush has got to know these people actually hate his guts. You can't convince me they respect him or enjoy kissing his ass. No one wants to be in that position.

So Rush has a lot fewer friends than it may appear. If he were to stumble and fall, that'd be better news for the Republicans than it is for the Democrats! Basically everyone hates him.
