During a debate, Michael Steele said his favorite book was War and Peace, but then quoted from Dickens' A Tale of Two Cities,
"It was the best of times, it was the worst of times." Republicans sure
know their literature; they knew Steele actually meant Tolstoy's famous
line, "It is a far, far better rest that I go to than I have ever known" and then actualized it by not voting for him.

Republican National Committee Chairman Michael Steele has apologized for a recent comment he made that linked Mitt Romney's failed presidential campaign to Republicans' concern about Romney's Mormon faith..  Michael Steele has put his foot in his mouth so many times that his Secret Service code name is Joe Biden.

It took six ballots to elect Steele.  A spokesperson said Steele was elected when several old white male Republicans couldn't wait any longer and had to use the restroom and were unavailable to vote. 

GOP Chairman Michael Steele has apologized for statements that many people of his party didn't vote for Mitt Romney because he was a Mormon. Steele also added that he has no problem with Romney's religion, and that anyone able to have as many white wives as possible is off-da-hook.
