Michael Steele's Hip-Hopification of the GOP: A Look Back



Let's travel into the future and see how Michael Steele's attempt to bring the Republican message to "urban-suburban hip-hop settings" works out:

  • 04-15-09: Physician warns participants in upcoming break dancing demonstration that he cannot guarantee the integrity of their hip replacements.
  • 06-18-09: Peggy Noonan's live presentation of Ronald Reagan speeches set to break-beats is met with booing and jeers from the audience, but becomes a YouTube sensation nevertheless.
  • 07-11-10: Newt Gingrich appears on Meet the Press wearing a yellow Fila track suit with matching Tommy Gear doo-rag.
  • 10-23-10: Hairdresser informs Bobby Jindal that if he doesn't stop fidgeting, he'll have to live with half a head of cornrows.
  • 01-30-11: George Will listens to Straight Outta Compton three times through but is "unable to fathom its metaphors."
  • 05-15-11: Waiter at the Four Seasons discreetly informs Mary Matalin that she has pâté de foie gras stuck to her custom "diamond grillz".
  • 01-08-12: GOP pundits debate whether or not Lil' Bow Wow's victory in their New Hampshire primary is a good thing.
  • 10-18-12: Controversy erupts when Politico reveals that candidate Sarah Palin's hot pants and tube tops were purchased with RNC funds.

Somewhere along the way they are sure to open a clothing line. FUBY: For Us By You. Karl Rove will be the white Suge Knight and the NRA will sponsor the Source Awards.

I pulled up to a house about seven or eight and I yelled to the cabby, "yo, home, smell you later." I looked at my kingdom, I was finally there, to settle my throne as the prince of Bel-Air.


/hangs head in shame for playing the Bel-Air card on PSP's blog.
