"Bowlers have BIG balls!"  |
The only reason the left is attacking Rush by calling him racist is because he opposes liberal stupidity...   "The World's Finest" |

Um, I'm fairly certain that Rush has been labeled a racist because of the racist things he has said. |

Rush is not an elected official, he has never even held an appointed office...HE IS A FREAKIN' ENTERTAINER!!! AND, he holds down a job...can either Jackson or Sharpton say the same?
If he has the money, and places the highest bid, and can demonstrate a financial ability to carry the burden of ownership....what is the problem? Some players say they don't want to play for him? Fine...take off your uniforms, climb into your Mercedes or Rolls and head for home! I am certain that there are any number of equally skilled (or even superior) who WILL play. The MLB does have a special legal status, the NFL does not. They CAN be sued for discrimination...and don't you think Rush would LOVE that? |

Courage is doing the right thing when no one is looking. |
Um, Id ask for proof but then again, you would call him a racist if he muttered anyhting that you disagree with. GRAYMAN |

The problem with calling anyone a racist is that the term has been so over used that it has become meaningless. The Congressional Black Causus used it to force the acceptance of Roland Burris and when subsequent facts clearly demonstrated that he had engaged in questionable activities they refused to step up and explain themselves. We're at the point that if a conservative orders a cup of black coffee he/she is instantly called a racist...I know nothing about Limbaugh so whether or not he is actually a racist is impossible for me to consider. What I do know is that whenever the term is used by a liberal to besmirch a conservative it is heralded by the lamestream media and then promptly ignored when any defense if offered. It is truly a sad state of affairs when so serious a social problem has become trivialized to the point of inconsequence. |

That's a joke, son. |
The right is going to call personal foul? They have that hypocrite meter pegged. I say they need to turn the heat up a notch or two.

As usual you have it utterly wrong. Calling anyone a racist is a meaningless act that ultimately will have little or no consquences. Personally I do not understand why anyone bothers to support or defend the likes of Limbaugh, but then again I don't understand the appeal of collecting PEZ dispensers either so to each his own I suppose. As for Limbaugh, I certainly hope he takes the time to thank his detractors for all of the free publicity... |

Did he say it or not? |

Saul Alinsky playbook comes to mind. Anyway, this gives Glenn Beck a break. Maybe they will have the New Black Liberation Movement stand outside his studio with nightsticks to block the facility. Anyone who opposes the current administration's agenda will be labelled as Racist. Read below the lib comments.  "We have met the Enemy and he is Us." Pogo |

Equating the seeming rise in criminal activity among NFL players to gang activity is racist? Is this one of those where you have to go thru several steps to make your point? The bus service in my city is very bad that is racist! Forget the dog, Beware of Owner |

That's a joke, son. |
That is not what he said. He said:
In which case the answer is yes. |
|||
|
|
That's a joke, son. |
There are over 1500 NFL players. How many are contributing to this "seeming rise in criminal activity"? |

What if he had said the Hatfields and the McCoys? Would anyone even give a schit? He11 no. The NFL is 70% black, so Crips and Bloods is probably more appropriate. The poor little victimized people of color who are offended by this statement, and the holier-than-thou white liberals need to quit whining and grow up.

The term racist has lost its meaning and its sting...much like the term 'viciously smeared' used end to end in consecutive sentences, and compounded by the term 'racist smear' two sentences after that.
Hyperbolic rhetoric comes to mind, but that one's kinda lost its punch these days too. Poor Rush. Now go a-way or I shall taunt you a second time! |

Sorry, but I do not see it. And I do not like the man. |

Sorry you don't I do for my stated reasons. And I don't care for either of them. |

Actually, Rush made no such quote. There is no source that leads anywhere other that a hater's blog and a subsequent series of repeating that cumulates at Wikipedia who refuses to remove but has posted that the quotes are in dispute.
Limbaughs broadcasts are all taped and available from day one. All you need do is a nexus lexus search. Which, if you want, I can have done over the next week as I have indirect access and am, personally, unwilling to pay the subscription price. |

Case closed, Thorin doesn't like Limbaugh. No team for Rush when the NFL gets this news alert. "We have met the Enemy and he is Us." Pogo |

Google is much better and cheaper too.

Being a White, Southern Born Male puts me in the distinctive category of A RACISTS ! ! !
Yes, its true..., I believe in Personal Responsibility / Individual Accountability, and that "given the opportunity" is a handout... Also, I hold no regard to anyone, I say again, anyone that doesn't "make the opportunity" for themself... Yes, I don't lead the lazy by the hand. I have total disregard to those that do not respect the value of an education, or giving something to their respective community. You know, that word called V-O-L-U-N-T-E-E-R... So, with pride I proclaim my racists ways, as stated above. Your LIBERAL interpretation of that word, I could care less... |

Well said Elliott. Except I'm a 'Southern Belle' lol.. I say let the players refuse. Paid way too much anyway. Sharpton has been charged via FBI for these racial 'shakedowns'... Use Google.. ((Some charges were dropped after the One was elected..but others are still 'pending)) |

So I read the entire transcript, and it appears he may have made the statment. Now, he's been on the air since 1988 and that's the "best" you've got?
Frankly, I lost interest in pro foootball years ago. But thst exchange cleared up why. It was the thuggish behavior that has invaded the sport. Cripps and bloods indeed, and the simily was used because no one would "get" "Sharks" and "Jets". In context, the remark is not racist, but descriptive. Now, what is next on your "hit" list. After 31 years blabbing for 3 hours a day 5 days a week, in the event that this is a racist, there must be many more actuall attributable remarks than one in 2007, right? |

Darn Elliott, I'm from Northern Indiana and find that according to your beliefs, me too. Must not be just a Southern thing, but a values system we see here. "We have met the Enemy and he is Us." Pogo |

And I'm sure Marge Schott held those very same values. It's just the words that came out of her mouth people took offense to. |

Bunch of hub bub. Rush is not racist...but Sharpton and Jackson definitely are.
|

May have? You got to be kidding? I produced the link to his site where he said that. May have....Geeeze. |

"The day is wasted in which you learn nothing" |
Unbelievable just what some people will call "racist". How long before Sharpton, et al, pressure Crayola to remove the black crayon? It's especially pitiful considering the dilution of the term this behavior causes. At a time when undeniable progress toward racial equality has been made, this can't help.

As long as you claim a southern part of Northern Indiana as your home, you're more than welcome. Yes, Values indeed... One that "values" GOD and Country over themself One that "values" Family before themself One that "values" Common Courtesy/Decency over self-absorbed motives Yes, Values indeed . . . Just like what I see in our Warriors |

If not today, I am sure he was at one time. If I had to guess many men older than 45 more than likely was at one time, if you say you never were your probably not telling the truth. I admit I USE to be a long time ago because that's what I grew up in. But like many other things I learned to grow OVER stupidity and ignorance of useless hate. You boys talk about Rush speaking the truth, now lets really hear the truth and quit playing the games. I would bet my military pension for the rest of my life that he was at one time, maybe not now, but only HE will ever know that and he like many will never admit it, so it could never be proven either way. Now step up to the podium boys and repent your sin, the water feels great.
