The Obama-controlled media is in full cover Reid’s ass mode by already misrepresenting what Michael Steele said on Fox News Sunday.
If you look at a report from Politico calling Steele a flip-flopper for insisting that former Republican Majority leader Trent Lott didn’t need to resign in 2002 for comments he made about Strom Thurmond that Democrats found offensive, but instead calling for Reid’s resignation for his remarks calling Barack Obama “light skinned” and without “negro dialect”.
Look at what Steele actually said.
As you can see Steele is calling for Reid’s resignation not solely because of what Reid said about Obama, but because if the Republican leader in Lott had to resign for offensive comments, then Reid should also be made to resign for his offensive comments.
It’s totally irrelevant what Steele’s position was concerning Lott’s resignation, but the MSM is using it to discredit Steele’s argument that there should be only one standard for all politicians instead of separate standards for Democrats and Republicans
