About LinkBacksThe new GOP website is apparently targeting a "younger, hipper" audience. Shown on the Daily Show, the new site features a blog from Michael Steele called "What Up" and a pimped out American flag that links to "Republican Heroes" that shows notable African Americans like Jackie Robinson, Fredrick Douglass, John Langston, Hiram Revels and others.
The GOP seems to be trying really hard now to appeal to certain demographics and shake their image, marketing their "product" now in a much different way. Of course, it probably has nothing to do with Obama's presidency.

Michael Steele is determined to turn the GOP into a parody of itself. It is sad watching how pathetic that party has become, though the website is unintentionally hilarious.

Maybe Obama should start a show and call it "Golly Gee Willockers".

Welcome back, Defensor.
Yes, it is a parody now. The interesting thing is that nobody who backs them seems to notice. Why do people laugh? Only they do not know."There is, of course, some connection between the scene outside and the mind through which we watch it, just as there are some long-haired men and short-haired women in radical gatherings.

That would be hilarious.
Did you get a chance to play with the pimped out flag on the homepage? It has hydraulics too."There is, of course, some connection between the scene outside and the mind through which we watch it, just as there are some long-haired men and short-haired women in radical gatherings.

My favorite part is the "GOP Faces"
It looks like 90% of them are black too.

It's getting harder and harder to distinguish Fox News from the GOP website."There is, of course, some connection between the scene outside and the mind through which we watch it, just as there are some long-haired men and short-haired women in radical gatherings.
