Video: Another Broken Obama Promise – ObamaCare is a Tax
Actually, President Obama’s health care reform law, the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (ACA) is a series of tax increases over time. The increases have just not been assessed or paid yet – except in a few instances.
The Republican National Committee in their video above aptly reminds voters about Obama’s broken promise from 2008.
But, the verdict is out whether this will be the prominent issue that Mitt Romney and GOP use against the President in November.
It is the economy…..

President 2012: Republicans Call Obama’s Campaign – Hype and Blame
Hype and Blame pretty much sums up the Obama Presidency.The Republican National Committee is getting ahead of President Obama’s official campaign kickoff in Ohio and Virginia on Saturday with a media blitz labeling his reelection as the “Hype and Blame” tour.
The RNC will sell “Hype and Blame 2012” bumper stickers — a twist on Mr. Obama’s “hope and change” campaign of 2008 — accompanied by digital advertising, a fundraising strategy, radio and TV ads, and op-eds in local media. RNC Chairman Reince Preibus and state party chairmen will detail the strategy in a conference call with the media Thursday.

President 2012: The GOP Sends Obama’s Getaway Postcards from Martha’s Vineyard
In a humorous fundraising e-mail the Republican National Committee is playing upon the recent Obama vacation on Martha’s Vineyard.Right after his tax-payer funded campaign tour of the Midwest this week, President Obama will be flying to Martha’s Vineyard for a nine day vacation. Before he jets off, send him a postcard.
He sure needs a break after a long year criss-crossing the country raising money to save his job – all the while over 14 million Americans are out of work and even more are suffering because of his policies.
After you send President Obama and your friends & family a postcard please take a moment to make a secure online contribution of $10, $15, $25, $50, $100 or more to support conservative candidates and help our Party defeat Barack Obama in 2012.
Sincerely,
Reince
PriebusChairman, Republican National Committee
Well, it is kinder than Matt Drudge’s treatment of the President.

Republican National Committee Pulls Nancy Pelosi – Pussy Galore Video Yet Again
The Republican National Committee Video on Nancy PelosiThe Republican National Committee has asserted a copyright claim to remove their Nancy Pelosi – Pussy Galore video from You Tube. As you can see above it has resurfaced for a time at another site.
Flap does not think the video is offensive and the RNC did NOT make a mistake so why the big deal now?
Do these GUTLESS WONDERS just like shooting themselves in the foot?

Video: The Obligatory Nancy Pelosi = Pussy Galore Post
Republican National Committee video on Democrat House Speaker Nancy PelosiThe Politico has tried to make a big deal of the “below the belt” shot at Nancy Pelosi.
She’s the 69-year-old speaker of the House of Representatives, second in the line of succession and the most powerful woman in U.S. history.
But when you see Nancy Pelosi, the Republican National Committee wants you to think “Pussy Galore.â€
At least that’s the takeaway from a video released by the committee this week – a video that puts Pelosi side-by-side with the aforementioned villainess from the 1964 James Bond film “Goldfinger.â€
The RNC video, which begins with the speaker’s head in the iconic spy-series gun sight, implies that Pelosi has used her feminine wiles to dodge the truth about whether or not she was briefed by the CIA on the use of waterboarding in 2002. While the P-word is never mentioned directly, in one section the speaker appears in a split screen
alongside the Bond nemesis – and the video’s tagline is “Democrats Galore.â€Flap says BFD.
You think this is sexist?
Why?
Flap’s friend Darleen Click has the answer.
First off, we can probably question why little Ms. Andie’s editorial is listed in the “news†section of Politico. Secondly, we can then wonder where Ms. Andie was when Her Lord and Savior Obama was (using her metric of OUTRAGE over teh sexism) much less subtle in calling Sarah Palin a pig and flipping the bird to Hillary Clinton.
Two other women friends of Flap “GET IT.”
Well, booh-frickin’-whoo. Where was Politico when the Dems were calling Condoleezza Rice the “house negro“?
No, I don’t think the idea of the video below was to call the Speaker of the House a “pussy,†though the final tagline does allude to the Pussy Galore character, and does indeed imply that Nancy Pelosi is on the wrong side here, having taken on the intelligence community in the aggressive fashion that she did. Ultimately, the video’s implication is the opposite of what we usually mean to communicate with the word “pussy……”
What are they smoking? The President of the United States once made degrading remarks about Hilary Clinton’s menstrual cycles as part of his vicious primary battle against her; if the RNC is comparing Nancy to a femme fatale, that’s pretty small potatoes.
Alas, both AllahPundit and William Jacobson think the RNC shouldn’t have made the ad, since they should have known that it might be “distorted†by the opposite side. What are we permitted to say that cannot be distorted by the opposite side?
Again, BFD.

Michael Steele: Raising GOP Campaign Cash

Say what you will about RNC Chairman Michael Steele but he is raising the campaign cash for the Republican Party.Moe Lane has run the numbers and finds that yet again, the RNC under Michael Steele has outraised the DNC under Tim Kaine, $5.76 million to $4.52 million; the RNC’s cash on hand margin is $24.38 million to $9.09 million; and the DNC owes $5.42 million in debt while the RNC has none.

Michael Steele – Abortion, Gay Marriage – The GQ Interview
Republican National Chairman Michael Steele
The Michael Steele GQ interview is here.Some conservatives may NOT like it but Flap understands what Steele is doing – It is called OUTREACH.
On the other hand, it is Steele’s inconsistencies on the abortion question and OTHERS that have some wondering what utility Steele brings to the national GOP and Republican National Committee.
I have seen the man speak with conviction and passion at conservative events and leave everyone mightily impressed, but now we have to wonder whether Steele just tailored the message for the audience, as he appears to have done with Hughley and GQ. I don’t necessarily buy that, as he has easier ways to get media air time than being in the Republican Party, but it’s hard not to ask the question these days.
One thing is certain: he’s a lot less media savvy than most of us thought. And since he doesn’t seem to have much skill in organization, we have to ask ourselves why we should support his continued tenure as RNC chair.
Looks like to Flap that Michael Steele is a good pitchman on television and sells himself well, but that is all. California had that problem with Arnold Schwarzenegger – much to its later detriment.

Michael Steele and the Katon Dawson Republican National Committee Coup
Former Maryland Lt. Gov. Michael Steele speaks after being elected the first black Republican National Committee chairman in an election by the RNC during their winter meetings in Washington, January 30, 2009
There is more about Republican National Committee Chairman Michael Steele being on thin ice. And, guess who is instigating the FLAP?Katon Dawson, who came in second to Steele in January.
Republican insiders tell Political Wire that a no confidence vote on RNC Chairman Michael Steele is likely to be called after the NY-20 special election on March 31 — regardless of whether Republicans win the seat or not.
Katon Dawson, who came in second in the January RNC vote, is said to be quietly organizing a vote and is getting the support of several state party chairmen who want to dump Steele.
Flap agrees with Jim Geraghty over at National Review that Steele will NOT be replaced no matter what happens in the New York 20th Congressional race.
However, if the FBI investigation into his sister and his 2006 Senate campaign sprouts new legs, Steele could be forced to resign.
Probably much to the relief of the old guard on the RNC.
But, the next in line will NOT be Katon Dawson, despite his machinations.

Michael Steele OUT As Republican National Committee Chairman if GOP Fails to Win in New York?
Former president George W. Bush’s Republicans, groping their way from their November elections rout, need a “hip-hop” makeover to court younger voters, the party’s chief said in an interview. “We need to uptick our image with everyone, including one-armed midgets,” Michael Steele, elected in late January as the first black chairman of the Republican National Committee, told the Washington Times.
So say ex-RNC staffers.Wishful thinking from the LEFT mostly and stirring the pot.
Jim Geraghty has the RIGHT view.
But, Steele must quickly organize his staff and demonstrate that he has command of the party apparatus as a change agent.
