I nearly fell out of my chair laughing, reading this

Dear Red State guy. The left did not destroy Rush's big dream. Rush's lazy, racist, hateful, intolerant and obscene fat mouth did. He dug his own grave. It's not nearly enough recompense for the pain he's caused with his bigotry and hate mongering over the years.

"Put the bone back in your nose" is one of my favorites, shouted at a black, female caller on his radio show. Actually, his racism is very well documented, has been posted to this board, and can be found with a simple internet search. Rush Limbaugh is a racist, without a doubt.

...

Ok, I think this argument will go no where. If you honestly believe, DE, that Rush Limbaugh is in no way a racist, we just can't see eye to eye.

Seriously, guys. You need to step back from being on the conservative side and really take a long hard look at the mouth pieces that drive the movement, and what they say and promote.

Except none of the supposed racist quotes could be sorced to him by any media agent.

"Right. So you go into Darfur and you go into South Africa, you get rid of the white government there. You put sanctions on them. You stand behind Nelson Mandela — who was bankrolled by communists for a time, had the support of certain communist leaders. You go to Ethiopia. You do the same thing."

"Look, let me put it to you this way: the NFL all too often looks like a game between the Bloods and the Crips without any weapons. There, I said it."

"Have you ever noticed how all composite pictures of wanted criminals resemble Jesse Jackson?"

"Take that bone out of your nose and call me back."

"I think the media has been very desirous that a black quarterback do well. They're interested in black coaches and black quarterbacks doing well. I think there's a little hope invested in McNabb and he got a lot of credit for the performance of his team that he really didn't deserve."

Ok, let me preface by saying I don't know if Limbaugh is "racist" or not. In fact, I think every single one of you is wrong in saying anyone isn't racist because that simply isn't true. And I do not know what Limbaugh's stance on other policies or anything is because I don't watch his radio shows or tv shows.

Anyway, if he is indeed "racist" does that invalidate any of the other critcisms he makes?

I don't really buy the "everyone is racist" thing because it tells us nothing useful. Ok, fine. Everyone's a racist. Now, either the term is useless because it's simply stating the obvious, or else we start using it to refer to people who are racist in a significant fashion.
