This is true: Michael Steele is terrible at not being black.
I’ll admit this was only based on gut instinct from vague memories of nearly a decade ago, involving poor messaging, improper use of funds or some other scandal. But I can’t find it now. It may be that I was remembering his senate campaign rather than his chairmanship or remembering a level of incompetence that was remarkable at the time but in the current climate seems quaint.
I withdraw the accusation.
The RNC has released his official job description, including required qualifications. There is nothing in it about being black. Case closed, fake news.
Florida schoolchildren can’t trust their legislature to help, nor the “brave” LEOs who stood around waiting for the maniac to run out of ammo, so they’re asked to rely on magic words? If Words of Power are now the GOP’s thing, why not load up the plaque with more potent spells? :—

To be fair, Michael Steele was not so well versed in being black, either.
Pbbpbbpppthth!
So…Delta cuts ties with the NRA and the Lt Governor of Georgia says they’re attacking conservatives, basically admitting that the Republicans and the NRA are one. Which we already know, but it’s nice to have it openly confirmed. And also that Republicans are perfectly fine with taxes…as long as they only apply to people they don’t like.
While the thought of them moving their hub over this has its appeal, it would probably be a lot cheaper for them to [del]buy a new Lieutenant Governor[/del] put their money and marketing efforts toward supporting a less idiotic candidate for Lieutenant Governor in the next election.
…at which point conservative snowflakes will whine about how persecuted Christians are in this country.

As someone commented on the WaPo article : “If Atlanta was on the list of twenty finalists for Amazon’s HQ2 last week, it is no longer on that list today.”
Avada kedavra, for that matter.
