WTF? Steele is an oreo and just made a stereotypical racist comment. I like fried chicken and potato salad myself. lol!!!! But I’ll never trust the Republican party at all. They don’t have the regular people best interests at all.

and the dems do they show up for the black vote every few years and play the race card and blacks fall for it everytime the dems will never tell blacks what they really think of them because they will lose votes no dem running for office will tell the truth that blacks need to grow up and stop having so many bastard babies.

what a freakin moron. my grandmother always said. “if you don’t have anything intelligent to say then don’t say anything” and its obvious he doesn’t have anything to say.

palin is just annoying to me for some reason… every time i see a video of one of her speech’s quick to turn.. she reminds me of a real world cast member.. someone just looking for the spotlight.

I am so tired of Michael Steele. He is a scapegoat and a mascot for the Republican party and he will learn just like Colin Powell did that if you’re going to be a Black Republican your party expects you to be rabid towards in anyone who goes against the right. If you don’t they attempt to rip your credibility to shreds and turn their backs on you. In his case, poetic justice, because he’ll be somewhere trying to find Black folks to hide behind then, possibly with the same racist joke-offering he just used. Idiot. Sheesh, that’s putting a damper on my day.

Whoever posted that Blacks need to grow up and stop having bastard babies is a coon and probably a Michael Steele supporter. What about all these hillbillie White people who are on welfare and exploit the government assistance more than the stereotypes Blacks are potrayed in the media? Both political parties are full of shyt and need a major overhaul actually.

The white man’s black puppet! He is out of order, and when it comes time for White republicans to support him, they won’t be caring about his black ass!

I am not a republican nor am I a huge Micheal Steele fan, but you have to show some sort of respect to a educated black man in such a role. He is the chairmen of the GOP and we should be proud to see black figures in these positions! Black people want to give props to coonin a$$ rappers, but none to educated black men.

If any African American people show up to support him you need to have your head examined.As far as i’m concerned when he said Y’all come he was talking to the unfortunate woman that gave birth to that SON OF A B***H! And the crazy woman that married him and any offspring that he may have brought into the world. Keep bending over and letting the Republicans f**k him in the ass without no vaseline, don’t try to have any of us join you you stupid a*****e. OBAMA IS MORE MAN THAN HE WILL EVER BE!!!!!

IM OFFENDED! WELL I HAVE THE “40. CAL AND THE PUMP” AND P.S. THIS COUNTRY IN NOT “UNDER GOD”! IT TRY’S TO BE “OVER GOD”! CHECK YOURSELF YOU FOOL!

Palin isnt credible and neither is Steele! Palin is a crybaby, simpleton! enough said ! Steele is so far disconnected from the black reality, he isnt even on the same planet as the rest of us!
i will give him a point for trying but as the ole song goes, and what black americans say eveyday “What have you done for me lately?!” he does not nor does his republican party “walk the walk”, but all they do is talk the crap and drink the repub KOOL AID!
NICE TRY BUT NOT EVEN CLOSE TO THE CIGARS IF YOU WANT US TO BEGIN TO LISTEN TO YOU!
once they walk a mile in outr shoes, then they might see and feel our pain as well and until that is answered, NO DEAL!!!

that comment seemed to be a joke in response to a joke…this headline is a bit sensationalized..You may not agree with Mr. Steele and his views, but it can’t be denied that this man is intelligent and can effectively articulate his views..We as a people get to sensitive over these comments, while Obama is out here undermining Africa and the economy with his economic hitmen, Larry Summers and Tim Geitner…

This black “man” is allowing himself to be USED by the GOP. Where was he prior to Obama being elected? The Gop thought “Hmm, you got a black man well we got one too, and he’s a blacker black than yours.!” If he was about something he would stand up and speak out when people from his own party speak against the 1st family. I’m not saying supporting their views, but as another black man support each other. He’s a freaking pansy and Uncle Tom for real!!!!

And this Cameron Cowan…I heard that crap you’ll bring the collard greens you fat bastard!!! What about the menudo? hmmm or the egg rolls? Ignorant chump~

U ALL R TAKING IT OUT OF CONTAX U ALL NEED TO STOP BEING SO DANM INSECURE AND UNSELFCONSCIOUS ABOUT BEING BLACK EVERY SOMEONE SAY SOM ETHING A BOUT fried chicken U WANT TO ACT ALL UPSET LET SEE U GET MAD THE NEXT TIME ONE OF YO FRIEND OF FAM CALL U A NIGGA

They are all politicians and can’t be trusted with a dime, Obama included.

Now lets go and clean up the black neighborhoods.

I agree with this being taken out of context. Is this a hit job on the only black man in the GOP? He was responding to a smart comment if you listen closely(“I’ll bring the collard greens”). Give me a break. If this was a big deal, the major networks and cable outlets would of covered it. Instead, this garbage is buried on blackplanet. If you really feel offended, contact Al. Newt and Rush have to be writing these posts.

Sounds like he has been hearing to many of those jokes and he’s become numb to them.

brotha well finnnng said

surprised at BP…as much as i don’t like steele, i can’t agree with insinuation…

i watched the video twice…he was talking about everybody…not just blacks…

Every time Republicans try to explain how they can diversify GOP, the only thing they have to reach for is that they were the Party of Lincoln who freed the slave. Black people need to understand even though Lincoln was a good man, his reasoning for freeing the Slaves was to intensify Industrialism. The North could not compete with the free labor that the South had with Slaves. Someone need to make Michael Steele aware of this!

Definitely taken out of context. I don’t like Republicans and basically it was in a joking manner RESPONDING to someone in the audience. Once again we are suckers to Blackplanet and Newsone for desperately needing ratings of some type. (sigh)

well to attract a people you first have to refrain from making stereotypical comments. That only push us away from the party. Plus I don’t believe that rep or dem is for minorities.

I think as the head of the GOP I think he should’ve represented the party better. That’s why the GOP looks as bad as they do now. It’s really a shame that these ppl are not aware of the REAL issues. We don’t need no damn chicken, instead put that money towards after school programs. Encourage community service, something..SMDH at him and all the other airheads representing his party.

What an a-hole…..They really enjoy poking fun at Black people, don’t they! Talk about the ultimate Uncle Tom…..

ya’ll don’t know michael steele.. he’s the fakest f**king black man you can meet.. i remember when he was running for lt governor of maryland.. the things he said. this fall right in line.. don’t think it’s a joke out of content.. he plays the black card and he always say stupid s**t when he do.. believe it..

Talk about an Uncle Tom. This is why a lot of black people aren’t fooling with the Republican party. All of the black front men that they love like Juan Williams, Jessie Lee Peterson,and Michael Steele are house negroes.

People call him an Uncle Tom but he probly gots less drama in his life than yal muthaf**kas. Who said he cares if he black, he don’t needs to give a f**k about nobody.

I didn’t realize he [Steele] was so IGNORANT..he’s one of those that think he’s white and think ‘white people’ love him b/c he’s doing and saying things towards his own ppl..he’s the ULTIMATE UNCLE TOM!!,I bet he will glady accept an invite to a KKK meeting..smh

This nigga here… wtf, Can’t Stand these newport ass niggas.

Michael Steele don’t represent black people f**k him. I hate Republicans they are showing more and more how desperate and idiology they are to make a come back since they have lost face with Americans and other Countries.

I’m no fan of Michael “The Token Nigga” Steele, but in this instance he’s being smeared. Don’t do that. The Republicans will give us more than enough fodder to use against them without us resorting to their slimey tactics.

He is not an uncle tom, not all black people have to be Democrats, im gonna break it down for ya, people who vote democrat 8 times out of 10 regardles of color wont free money but dont wanna wrok to it, Conservatives wanna give you help but aint gonna give you a hand out, both Bush and Obama suck. The only REAL president we ever had and that was Kennedy and he got murdered by his own government because he stood for the people and knew the corruption that was going on higher up.

SouthSide4Life23 you do make a good point. Why do black people automatically assume republican=bad and democrat=good. When in fact they are both ran by white folks who really don’t give a damn about either people. Republicans are clueless about us and Democrats manipulate and use us. Minorities would simply be better off branching off from either party.

the bird joke he could’ve kept,and i dont eat alot of potatoe salad.hes not a stand up funny man so quit the jokes b***h ass nigga,and we all know what the other side claimed they did in the 1800′sbut like janet jackson said,what have you done for me lately.NOT A F**KIN THING!!!!they need to do more than tell stale jokes and smile.substance might help.

oh whatever people are jsut looking for something to b***h about. If it were Chapelle or Steve Harvey saying it people would back them up and be laughing. Anywhoz next topic…….yea that Burr Oak s**t bogus as hell right?

the ideal of cracking a joke that appears to be stero typical to gain acceptence takes away from your agenda and makes you out to be what everyone wants you to be and worse. a house nigga, sale out, uncle time or whatever terminology that might discredit you. we need to be taken serious and this is not a good way to get respected or noticed.

read up on ur history dude….jfk was shot because he tried to bite the hand that that helped him get elected…do a search on jfk and the mob and see what u find out……dems and rep both suck i agree both parties suck they only use us to get what ever they want…..BLACK PLANET is not ran by black people it wasnt created by someone black so becareful of what u read on here….havent u noticed all the negative s**t they put on here about black people….9 out of 10 are negative….thats all they feed us…wheres the positive black planet…..

BLACKPLANET STOP IT RIGHT NOW!! stop using subliminal messages to patronize African Americans making us believe your fighting for us. He didnt mean it like that, Chicken as you already know is a popular commodity and potato salad is no where historically tied to a stereoptype. He could have said chicken and noodles and ya’ll would have made a big deal about it. if u listened to what he had to say after that you;ll know what he meant!

Have yall ever thought thats really what he eats, that it was just what came to mind? I mean that is something I would say. Yes 9 out of 10 articles are negative on here but we feed right into the negativity and think exactly what they want us to think. Do we ever try to think of the positive side or what someone might have meant? No we think negative and assume negative. I wish people would stop playing the victim and shut up. We do what we allow ourselves to do. We are put down because we allow ourselves to be put down.

it’s not steve harvey or dave chapelle saying this, it’s the leader of the REPUBLICAN PARTY..this nigga aint no comic, he’s an elected offical and should act as if..chicken & potatoe salad aint gon make black folks join his party..Mr. Steele tries to hard to gain acceptance from the black community, he needs to lay off the jokes, AND HELP FIX AMERICA !

If you listen closely, someone off camera said, “I got the collard greens” and he was responding to that joke with one of his own. I agree with some of the posters that more positive news should be the cornerstone of Blackplanet. Every other media outlet is feeding negativity. Enough of insinuating conflict and drama…

i feel republican had their chance but did nothing but get the economy in a mess, now democrat have to fix problem,rep.are trying to use a strategy on young voters.(f**k! some damn chicken)take that an shove it up his candy ass! sarah palin i would’nt vote for her to open a bag of potato chips. (he need some police brutality to wake him up).

this is really sad that republicans are still trying to lay claim to the fact that their party actually did stand for something positive at one time; liberation of blacks from slavery…although this is true, this is nothing more than a history lesson now…the republican party’s principles are no longer in the best interests of any americans not just blacks

He sounds as DUMB as Palin!

what a uncle tom , he is a jerk….wake up black people!!!

@ AHARDFIND

I couldn’t agree more with you fam.Its good to see there’s folks out there that are not reactionary, but solution base. We need more of you in the community. Hotep

Few Points:

1) Lincoln DID NOT FREE THE SLAVES(our Ancestors). Please pick up a book and learn to question the things that they are feeding us. Lincoln abolished slavery in order to save the union and to hinder the economic prosperity of the south. YOU ever wonder why Harriet Tubman hated Lincoln? Also, Lincoln’s mother is half black. He’s the real first black president, and actually have a slave blood unlike Obama.

2) Democrats and Republicans are just the same. Obama is also a puppet of the white men.Go check out Council of Foreign Relations, Trilateral Commission, Bilderburgers, Bryzenski and Rockerfeller etc.. . .read WHite face ,Black Mask by Frantz Fanon (Grandmaster Teacher).

3) Check who Michelle Obama really is, and figure out who she represents in reality.

4) Michael Steele and his antics are just smoking mirrors so Obama and his comrad can look goog.Its all PR remember that.

jazz man good post and thx for the info am hv 2 check sum of them books out ..

It’s interesting how our words get taken out of context. Not that I am standing up for Steele, I think he is a joke for the R Party at this time. But he never really said come on black people “I got the fried Chicken and the potatoe salad”, directly. He responded to a comment by someone in the back ground saying I got the collard greens. Reporters are truly a trip.

these blackplanet news headlines are really not truthful…iono..reminds me of faux news in a way. damn u bp newsone

Slavery ended because it was no longer needed, the industrial revolution had already started in the north rendering chattel slavery inefficient and less profitable. So Lincon did the right executive thing expunging it from our system setign the way for Reconstruction which did not become fully affirmed until blacks started moving in mass for their equal rights 100 years later. And Lincon did pay with his life for signing the emancipation proclimation And this Idea that Obama is a puppet is silly. Why is African americans are always lookiing for an excuse to render themselves powerless even in the face of the obvious phenomenal acheivement. We do it with all our greatest leaders, “oh there not really who you think they are”. Obama is the leader of the free world, he commands the greatest and most powerful army the worls had ever known and he has his finger on the button of a nuclear arsenal that can blow up the planet several times over. White people are saying he has too much power, “he took over the banks, the automotive industry, health care, wall street…” Yo with black preseident and black first lady, if we as indivuduals can’t figure out to put together a couple of dollars using 1/1000th of the brain power Obama used to get to the presidency, than that’s your own dam fault. I’m no Steele fan but thats all Steele is trying to say to black folks. And if you do your homework, a lousy hour a day, stay the hell out from under the influence of some DA, figure what you want to do in life and go get it, there is nothing stopping you from being the best you can be. We are not ever going to get around the accountability peice either here are on the African continent, even as we fight the forces that threaten our economic, political, and personal affirmation.

Imitation white man steele could’nt attrack ants to sugar.plus white people have always understood that blacks that turn on their own people,can’t be trusted by anyone. They live their lives stabbing people in the back,they can steal the hair off your back even when your wearing a shirt on.that’s why,he has noooo.power at all.he’s just a talking head.

This damn Sambo,Pick-a-Ninny,House Negro,Uncle Tom,Crackery Coon needs to sit his ass down somewhere!!!!

well i take great pride in sayin i made this b***h ass nigga come back to earth in 06 , i was workin airport security and he tried to storm thru like he jesus wit an easy pass , get your ass in the wanding booth b***h, i cant stand his uncle tom ass , he was pissed after the fact he threw his shoe at me i said we’re gonna test it for explosives and made him late for his flight , the fact he was so pissed off brought me great joy , i shoulda spit in his fcukin face

Youre right Lincoln did pay for his life, so we revere a man that hated blacks because you believe that he freed the slaves.Also, because the people outside of the US were pressuring Lincoln to do so. well, I guess you forgot what happened after that, that’s called sharecropping. Sharecropping is a legal way of slavery, and since you want to talk about economics. The break down of sharecropping is the same breakdown to why Afrikan countries, South and Central Amerikkkan, Caribbean and Pacific Island countries are so much in debt. Moreover, so we celebrate Lincoln because you believe he freed our ancestors. Yet, over 200 million native amerikkans and over 60 million afrikans who were genocide and massacred by claiming the land as the New World and creating the Slave Passage, we should turn the other cheek like it never happened. As a community, we cannot continue to live in an adage where we turn our cheek and forget our history, and what brought us here today. This has nothing to do with hatred, this has something to do with empowering our people with the right information that pertains to us and not HIS STORY, and not sensationalism and superficiality. You have to understand, the system is in place for reason. Those that thinks Military Industrial Complex and Prison Industrial Complex is not a way to continue our bondage to the system then go ahead and walk your way in believing that you’re equal to your counterpart. I can share you this if you are equal to them, how come you ONLY HAVE CIVIL RIGHTS AND NOT HUMAN RIGHTS???? AND WHY OUR CIVIL RIGHTS HAVE TO BE EXPIRE AND SIGN AGAIN BY THE GOVERNMENT??? thats why Malik Hajj EL-SHabazz is more important dead than alive to them.Why do you think they killed MLK? the real reason not the PC BS.

IF YOURE EQUAL TO THEM WHY ARE THE LAWS PERTAINING TO LAW OFFENSES ARE SKEWED FOR THEM GET SLAP ON THE HAND, AND YOU AND I GET TROWN IN JAIL FOR LONGER TIME????

IF YOURE EQUAL TO THEM HOW COME YOU DONT HAVE THE RIGHT RESOURCES REGARDING EDUCATION, CREDIT SYSTEM, ECONOMIC EMPOWERMENT ETC.???

IF YOURE EQUAL TO THEM WHY DO THEY HAVE TO SIGN AND ENACT A VOTING RIGHTS BILL FOR YOU TO HAVE THE RIGHT TO VOTE???? WHich Stands for 25 years, and they have to sign it again for you to have that right. WHY ARE we NOT INFORMED ON THE ELECTORAL COLLEGE????

IF YOURE EQUAL TO THEM, HOW COME THE PATRIOT ACT, read it, IS GEARED TOWARDS YOU AND I??? which denounces our constitutional rights as AMERICANS.

These are some of the things that we are against with as we live our lives everyday. It is important that I and CONSCIOUS BROTHERS AND SISTERS to continue to spread the reality that we are in. Its better to know whats going on than be in the dark and get lost in the system, which most are. You ever wonder why there’s so much hatred in our communities????

This guy is a joke.

He must have that “Deer in the headlights” syndrome going down ya dig. I just like how the republicans jumped on the band wagon of having a black person rep the GOP all suddenly since Obama became president lol.

How about we as Black People actually have a calm, rational conversation on here for a change. Stop the hostility.

thank you @ JazzPast

i disagree with Steele, he could get more “diversity” by using celebrities….rappers,actors, athletes, etc.

then again politics is bulls**t and neither the democrats NOR the republicans give a fVck about the citizens. politicians are traitors to the Constitution and WH0RES to Corporations.

This guy is simply an “uncle tom” so what ever he says or does means nothing to me in regards to what he wants to do with the republican party!

http://www.TEACHBLACKHISTORY.com

WHERE DO THEY GET THESE SUPER UNCLE TOMS FROM??? STEEL AND CLARENCE (UNCLE)THOMAS

I MEAN REALLY I CAN ALMOST STOMACH A RACIST PERSON I KNOW WHERE THEY STAND, BUT RACIST UNCLE TOMS THAT DO NOTHING TO BETTER THE BLACK SITUATION IN THIS COUNTRY IS SAD AND A DISGRACE TO BLACK PEOPLE AND ALL PEOPLE THAT’S WORKING TOWARD SOME POSITIVE.

Personally i was more offended while watching the rapper Game use the N word in his concert overseas. Now that was some ignorant sht. talk about uncle toms. young people wake up

The fall guy for the G.O.P.He want’s to lead for them great.He’ll have his wish to be the head “TOM” I’m sure his Massa,would really appreciate that!

@WestsideCartelAtl85- Right on, well said. @CNoriega- Get a clue.

Can you say “BRAINWASHED”.

This reminds me of when Africans was selling Africans to the slave masters or the Massa needed another Black to make them behave or to do what the Massa wanted them to do.

What A Slaaaaaaaave

This guy is the poster child for ‘Stockholm’ Syndrome aka “Unkle Tom loves his “ol’ massa”…I know some black republicans and that’s seems to be in effect for the lot of them.

Uncle Tom is an incorrect reference reference. Only people who never read Uncle Tom’s Cabin would use it to mean sell out. how ignorant. It frustrates me to no end because it’s a decent book (considering) and Tom was one of the strongest, noblest, self-sacrificing characters. He wasn’t a sell out by any means.

read the book please and thank you.

This guy continues to shoot himself in the foot. It’s starting to actually become a bit sad.

Poor Steele, he has clearly lost his way.

Naw white people suffer from Stockholm syndrome esp if they hand round nothing but blks and get beat down daily…I dont see why everybody must like one another…and blks r the most ignorant and dumb fycks out there…and ur dem party is the ones that organized the damn kkk ….po kids

A slave n****r used by the devils to do their dirty works.

I wonder does this idiot realize that the only reason that he has a job is because the republicans believe that using using his dumb a**, minority people may actually start believing their crap. Republicans have never cared for anyone other than their white base, and they will never care about anything but their white base. Just because they have the face of a ignorant Tom, Steele, trust me there is no future for persons of color with the Republican party.

The gop was instrumental in ending slavery in the U.S.but eventually has become a party of racist sc** and stepin fetchit lackeys like Steele,Ron Christie,Alan Keyes,JesseLeePeterson,Armstrong Williams,& Ward Connerly.

If sarah palin ever becomes president, i will move to europe… lmao @ steele and that comment… doesn’t it seem like since obama has won their is a lot more overt racism….hmm

To VANITY666BONET & Txbadboy, I am no fan of either party of politics because of my Cherokee and African American heritage. I trust neither because they both lied to the Native Americans and to the Blacks (for all those Blacks that do not believe go see the ABRAHAM LINCOLN doc**entary on HULU), I trust my family and my GOD, he has been my guide and strength.If that is not good enouh for you then let me spell it out, there are still people in this Country that Hate Blacks, There are still people in this Country that hate Whites, and there are DAM sure a great number of people in this Country that would still like to kill the Native Americans, just to get the money from the Casinos. But I have been assured by the Elders on my Mother side of the DNA strap that Wounded Knee will never happen again.
So you two lighten up and do some reading, I should be the one that is MAD, but I smile and laugh.

Danged fool just set himself up for racial backlash . . .does “House N****r” ring a bell????
