Nine months after he was elected, Republican National Committee Chairman Michael Steele has finally gotten around to starting up his own blog. And perhaps not surprisingly, it’s named after the one “black” expression that white people instinctively use when they’re trying way too hard to “relate.”
The name of Steele’s blog?
Yeah … it’s called “What Up?”
For realsies.
Way to “rap with your homies,” there, Mr. Chairman.
Of course, Steele’s blog is no doubt an improvement over what Republicans might have had under former SCGOP Chairman Katon Dawson‘s tenure.
“Mint Julep Musings,” anyone? No?
UPDATE: Well, whaddya know. Shortly after FITS story ran today, Steele changed the name of his blog to “Change the Game.”

Steele has someone like Frank Lunz tell him what to say and how to say it. It is all carefully “staged” to keep the same people voting Republican by using just the right words and lingo. Some call it magic, others call it propaganda.
Apparently “What’s Up ” did well in a poll for targeted Republican voters.

Come on, Steele.
The kids say “Sup, dawg?”
What’s next, bringing in blacks with fried chicken? Oh, right.
