Rush Would be Crucified For This

The left is evidently very upset about the idea of Lt. Governor Steele from Maryland running for the US Senate. The kind folks at "The News Blog" have nicknamed the African American "Simple Sambo" for being a Republican, and even doctored a photo to put him in black face makeup, evidently if you are already black, but a Republican, you aren't truly black.

I don't know Mr. Steele, or even follow Maryland politics, though I live in the next state and work just a few miles from the state line. However, this is twice he's been whacked by the left. The first being when a couple of Democratic workers on Chuck Shumer's payroll ran an illegal credit check on him. What, you didn't hear about that... Oh yeah, the MSM ignored it. In these days of rampant fear of identity theft it's okay to do if you work for Chuck.

If you really want to get sick about it, though, go to the comments, it shows the left's true colors.

They show once again, their disdain for anyone who jumps from the Democratic party. So, Mr. Steele, through your decision to run, you've helped show the world the fallacy of the Democrats, that blacks are only useful if they vote for them, and run as them. Otherwise, you might as well be , well, a rich white guy.

Charlie Sykes has a pretty strong opinion on this one, too.
