Michael Steele Names His Blog “What Up”
Is Michael Steele biting of the Urban Daily Blog, Thats Whatsup? Because he just changed his blog on GOP.com has been changed to What Up. Is he playing off Black people slang stereotypes? At least he could have made it more grammatically correct with What’s Up? Conservative columnist, Meredith Jessup writes.
GOP chairman Michael Steele is not 13-years-old and, therefore, should not have a blog entitled “WhatUp?”
“Something is happening at GOP.com,” booms the voice of Steele as the page loads. No joke: a digital Michael Steele struts across the computer monitor to explain the new website and how “that something new — is you!” Sure this tiny Michael Steele and cheesy line is enough to make you roll your eyes, but it gets worse. Much worse.
“It’s the new GOP.com. It’s a forward-looking, open-platform for the party of new ideas. If you’re a Republican activist, this is your space,” Steele’s digital likeness says. As a conservative with traditional conservative values, it’s clear the Republican institution did not learn any of the lessons from the last election and/or the rise of the modern-day tea party movement. People aren’t showing up at town hall meetings of Democrats AND Republicans because they are looking for “new ideas”–they just want the “conservative party” to remember its conservative roots and shape new ideas today in the mold of our traditional values handed down to us by previous generations of Americans.
The “Republican Heroes” page includes seven African Americans, one Hispanic-American, four women and four white men. I’m not exactly sure how baseball hall-of-famer Jackie Robinson is a Republican hero, or even if he was a Republican, but I think it’s disgraceful the GOP can’t come up with a list of AMERICANS who have shaped the party and the country; a list of people who succeeded in moving the country forward while holding onto tradition.

The problem with Steele’s pathetic attempt at trying to steer the black community over to the GOP, is that its futile and will never work. There might be a few that are attracted to their movement. But the fact is that the GOP have never stood for anything that benefits the black community and them getting Steele to lead over the RNC was their equivalant to Obama being elected president. He is a puppet or should I say a prop to show that the GOP are not racists. The problem is that we all know they are and always have been. Putting urban slang on a website won’t change the minds of the black community in this country. I honestly think they are trying to appeal to the latina community because of their growing numbers in the US voting arena. Their stand against immigration have hurt their plea to the spanish community and we all know how they have stood against any positive movement of the black community. The GOP is a dying breed and its the true racists in this country that our protesting and being loud and spewing hatred. The right is being divided into two parties now and they don’t even realize it. We all just should lay back and watch their party emplode. They are fighting with one another and attacking members of their party for trying to achieve true change in this country. I also think by next year, Steele will no longer be the front man for the RNC. I guarantee he will try and switch parties after that. Another sucka sellout…

the GOP told him to, “go get us some ni99as” and he’s comin up with all possible ways.it won’t be long before they drop him and he’ll be caught up in some BS.
Michael Steele is no more than a right wing black faced rodeo clown. He needs to wake the f*** up and gain some sort of dignity.
You know maybe somebody should just send this guy some pointers rather than posting an opinionated article on here.
HE IS AN IDIOT
