American Conservatives HATE The USA
"The outrageous reaction by Rush Limbaugh, RNC Chairman Michael Steele, and others to President Obama winning the Nobel Peace Prize is the latest sad example of Republicans putting politics before country by rooting for America to fail. House Republicans should immediately condemn these outrageous statements asserting that they are 'on the same side as the Taliban.'
"Rush Limbaugh and his Republican allies may, as Rush Limbaugh said, 'all agree with the Taliban and Iran,' but millions of Americans see the President's winning of the Nobel Peace Prize as an affirmation of our nation's values and it should be celebrated.
"Democrats and Republicans should join President Obama in seeing this award as a call to action against the common economic and security challenges we all share."

Would it be safe to call Michael Steel an 'Uncle Tom'?

It would, or the term Oreo also works.
Republican leaders are pseudo-patriots. They love to wrap themselves in the flag, but only when it furthers their own policy goals. They know that a successful Obama Presidency will relegate their party to opposition status for a generation or more. They don't care what they have to say, or who they have to hurt to prevent that from happening.
