Michael Steele and Bird Flipping

.

It doesn’t appear that RNC chairman Michael Steele is too pleased with the Senate health care vote.

“I’m tired of the Congress flipping the bird to the American people.”

To which Harry Reid responded…

“FU”

Ok, Reid didn’t actually say that…but he wanted to, I’m sure.  Instead he opted for this…

“I’m disappointed that someone with the title Mr. Steele has would be so crass and such a terrible example for the youth of this country.”

I understand Steele is just doing his job but please, get serious.  He’s taking Dems to task for doing what it is they were democratically elected to do.  Republicans are simply unable to deal with the fact that they lost the election and it’s driving them insane.

Implosions are never pretty…for either party.
