When asked if President Obama's plan represents socialism Michael Steele responded, "Yes. Next question."At the 2:58 mark:





The AP reports:

The chairman of the Republican Party on Monday called President Barack Obama's plan to overhaul health care "socialism," accusing the president of conducting a risky experiment that will hurt the economy and force millions to drop their current coverage.

Michael Steele, in remarks at the National Press Club, also said the president, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and key congressional committee chairmen are part of a "cabal" that wants to implement government-run health care.

"Obama-Pelosi want to start building a colossal, closed health care system where Washington decides. Republicans want and support an open health care system where patients and doctors make the decisions," Steele said.

Asked if Obama's health care plan represented socialism, Steele responded: "Yes. Next question."

Obama has repeatedly said he does not favor a government-run health care system. Legislation taking shape in the House envisions private insurance companies selling coverage in competition with the government.

Michael Steele On His College Experience: "I Partied My Behind Off." (Video)

"I heard there were classes," the former Freshmen Class President at John's Hopkins says to a group of students.



From The Swamp:

Michael Steele, chairman of the Republican National Committee and onetime lieutenant governor of Maryland, was not always a high-achiever.

He once got kicked out of Johns Hopkins University, he allows, because of some
hard-partying.

"I partied my behind off,'' Steele explains.

"I heard there were classes, and some people told me I really should go. But I was having a good time. I was freshman class president ... I just networked the heck out of that bad boy. I was getting there. I was talking. I was grooving. I was having a ball."

He says all of this, by way of imparting a valuable lesson, in the "Students and Leaders" program that C-SPAN will air next week. C-SPAN taped the RNC chairman speaking with students at Woodson Senior High School in Washington, D.C.

With "Students & Leaders," C-SPAN and Comcast are sponsoring "a unique educational experience for students at five Washington, D.C. public schools.'' Several leaders of Congress, reporters, and others are discussing leadership and service.

In his talk, Steele speaks of having to inform his mother that he was expelled, and then fighing his way back into school -- to achieve straight A's.

UPDATE: Welcome to the ConservativeXpress, Fox Nation!

In a CNN interview, RNC Chair Michael Steele says he has tried to reach out to President Obama to no avail.

"I'm done," he said.

He also addresses CNN's criticism of Steele's failure to recognize the "historical" impact of Obama's election.

"I'm supposed to support him because I'm black?" said Steele.

This is what I want to see from the RNC chair and screw CNN for trying to portray him poorly.

It's Time For Michael Steele To Resign

Scorecard: RNC $5.1 Million; DNC $3.26 Million in Fundraising

Michael Steele, despite marred in a Rush Limbaugh faux-media-induced scandal, out-raised his Lib counterpart Tim Kaine!

The Revolution will not be televised!

In its first full month under the chairmanship of Virginia Gov. Tim Kaine, the Democratic National Committee only raised $3.26 million in February, according to figures released by the committee this afternoon.

The total lags behind the February fundraising total at the Republican National Committee, which raised $5.1 million during the month.

RNC chairman Michael Steele, who faced a tumultuous first month as chairman, will get to claim an early fundraising victory over his Democratic counterpart.

The DNC fundraising total is down considerably from the $5.5 million the committee raised two years ago under former chairman Howard Dean. A Democratic operative notes that the low total isn’t surprising, given that Kaine faced limits on his fundraising with the Virginia General Assembly in session.

The committee has also not utilized President Obama's formidable e mail list, Organizing for America, for fundraising. And Obama has not yet hosted any fundraisers for the DNC.

The DNC now has $8.6 million in its campaign coffers, and holds $6.9 million in debt. The RNC has over $24 million cash-on-hand.
