Fire Pelosi.
That was not just the message that Michael Steele, chairman of the Republican Party, delivered in a speech here on Friday. They were also the words that he wore on his head, a slogan emblazoned on red baseball hats that he handed out during the summer meeting of the Republican National Committee.
“This is not complicated,” Mr. Steele said. “Fire Nancy Pelosi, retire Harry Reid, give us our country back.”
In his speech to Republicans leaders, Mr. Steele made repeated references to Ms. Pelosi, the House Speaker from California, as he worked to motivate party activists for the midterm elections. He invoked her name far more than that of President Obama, even announcing that Republicans would sponsor a 17-city “Fire Pelosi” tour after Labor Day, complete with a red bus painted with this motto: “Need a Job? Fire Pelosi.”
