— Ibid. Steele, referring to Obama’s stimulus package.

“This party [the GOP] has got to take its head out of its you-know-what and recognize that America doesn’t look like America in 1952. That America now is something very different, very beautiful that it has a lot of strips and strains to it. But, it’s real and we’ve got to get in the real.”
— Ibid. Steele.

“Sometimes I wonder whether the world is being run by smart people who are putting us on or by imbeciles who really mean it.”
