:: Steele, annoyed by CNN's D.L. Hughley, who referred to radio host Rush Limbaugh as "the de facto leader of the Republican party", says "NOT. I am the defacto leader of the Republican party."
Steele goes on to say that Limbaugh is nothing more than an "entertainer" whose radio broadcast is "incendiary" and "ugly".
As was predictable, Limbaugh responded like the puffed-up pig he is, on his radio show today.
From HUFFPOST:
"So I am an entertainer and I have 20 million listeners because of my great song and dance routine," Limbaugh said. "Michael Steele, you are head of the Republican National Committee. You are not head of the Republican party. Tens of millions of conservatives and Republicans have nothing to do with the Republican National Committee...and when you call them asking for money, they hang up on you."
"I hope that changes," Limbaugh continued. "It's time, Mr. Steele, for you to go behind the scenes and start doing the work that you were elected to do instead of being some talking-head media star."
What a completely laughable entity the GOP has become.
