Michael Steele:Bipartisanship “Is A Fiction Of Politics”Michael Steele does not believe in bipartisanship,for the RNC chairman it is just ‘a fiction of politics.’ Steele was interviewed by Washington Times’ Cal Thomas,to whom he said:

bipartisanship “is a fiction of politics. It’s an idea people work toward, but the reality is something else.”

Michael Steele also blamed his party for playing the same game in the past,he explained:

“Having a photo-op with a bunch of Republicans, inviting them to have a beer with you, or watch a football game is great theater, but when you don’t take our suggestions seriously, when you don’t respect our staffs and involve them in the vetting process; when you don’t confer with the minority party … you’re not serious about bipartisanship.”
Didn’t Republicans when they ran Congress do to Democrats what Democrats are now doing to Republicans? “Right,” Mr. Steele admits, “and everyone [then] clamored for bipartisanship. Did they get it? No.”

That’s the latest news on Michael Steele.
