quote: ORIGINAL: Sanity Limbaugh was mocking Harry Reid, the "racist comments" you're bitching about are those of the top Democrat in the Senate. quote: ORIGINAL: Politesub53 RML, sadly he isnt kidding you. Those that try and support Limbaughs racist comments are no better than the man himself. I think you need to revisit what Limbaugh said about the Haiti crisis, which has naught to do with Harry Ried

Sanity -> RE: Rush Drawing fire for his haitian comments (1/15/2010 2:21:28 PM)
The "light skinned negro" quip was Limbaugh mocking Democratic Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid's comments about Obama. Reid also marveled at Obama's lack of a "black dialect", "unless he wanted it". Beside that what are you referring to as "racist"?

Try just the Snopes quotes on for size http://www.snopes.com/politics/quotes/limbaugh.asp

Silly girl... your Snopes link says over and over again that those quotes cannot be verified, and the quotes that can be verified aren't racist. And we're not discussing ancient history, we're discussing Limbaugh's remarks on Haiti. Please try to focus.

The FOCUS of the article was how yet again, without care of how he is viewed, Rush opens mouth and chews on both feet. He is very entitled to say what he wishes, lord knows he never bothered to restrain himself before.... but both side of the political fence are coming out against him at his timing.... Do i doubt it wont be spun to Obama's advantage? not at all. every politician will be angling for a way to say during election time. "I was in Haiti!" I do believe what had so many upset was merely his piss poor choice of timing. WTF cares WHY Obama and other countries are helping. Do you believe that they DONT deserve help, Sanity?

Limbaugh is a huge pile of shit. "Critics have characterized Limbaugh’s comments as insensitive and tone-deaf at a time when heartbreaking images of the devastation dominate news coverage. Confronted with some of that criticism, Limbaugh slammed a caller as “close-minded.” “What I’m illustrating here is that you’re a blockhead,” Limbaugh shot back. “What I’m illustrating here is that you’re a close-minded bigot who is ill-informed.” “If you had listened to this program for a modicum of time, you would know it,” he said. “But instead, you’re a blockhead. Your mind is totally closed. You have tampons in your ears. Nothing is getting through other than the biased crap that you read.” http://news.yahoo.com/s/politico/20100115/pl_politico/31539 He must have a tiny little dick: only a man with a tiny little dick can be that rabid. That, combined with erectile disfunction, makes for a very nasty combination indeed. He should come with a fucking FDA warning: what a tool.

Thats a red herring because what julie was trying to say is that Rush's words mocking Harry Reid were racist... which, Harry Reids' words were racist. But Rush's mocking Reid isn't racist. What I find funny is how Reid can say it and its nothing, but Limbaugh says it (to mock Reid) and you far leftists come unhinged.

tazzygirl -> RE: Rush Drawing fire for his haitian comments (1/15/2010 2:42:54 PM)
I never said it was fucking racist. I said in the face of a disaster affecting so damn many people, for Rush to pull this stunt now is in bad taste.... Now, argue that.

Sanity -> RE: Rush Drawing fire for his haitian comments (1/15/2010 2:43:52 PM)
Tampons in your ears... thats funny. What he's saying there, what Rush was saying (and he's right) is that his words are being taken out of context. You're ignorant if you don't get it. And Rush is right...

He's right on planet neo-con. Meanwhile, in the real world, he's a tool, and a despicable pile of shit [:)] .

~ FR ~ I take Limbaugh's remarks on a case by case basis, so I'm not going to defend him in any kind of wholesale fashion. But I do hope y'all realize he pulls a lot of these as publicity stunts... Wednesday RUSH: I could sit here and be really cynical. I'll hold off on the cynicism for a couple hours, I'll hold off on it. I'm going to hold off on it, give the show's flow a chance to establish, *'cause it's going to be the Media Tweak of the Day. [...] RUSH: Yes, I think in the Haiti earthquake, ladies and gentlemen -- in the words of Rahm Emanuel -- we have another crisis simply too good to waste. This will play right into Obama's hands. He's humanitarian, compassionate. They'll use this to burnish their, shall we say, "credibility" with the black community -- in the both light-skinned and dark-skinned black community in this country. It's made-to-order for them. That's why he couldn't wait to get out there, could not wait to get out there. Thursday* RUSH: All right. Now, this is funny. *This was our Media Tweak of the Day yesterday*, April. You know, what we do here on this program is, purposely, play the media like violin, like a Stradivarius. And I love tweaking them. I love irritating them, and I love upsetting them and all you do is take words uttered by liberals and apply them to current events. It was Harry Reid who looked at Obama and said he's a "light-skinned" guy that "doesn't speak in a Negro dialect." CALLER: I'm not talking about Harry Reid. RUSH: Well, I was. Not sayin' they're always, or even ever, in good taste. But he's not putting out this stuff as scripture from the Book of Rush. He does it to tweak people who just listen to his show looking for something to go off about. K.

Nothing wrong with me, I'm just not from planet Libtard. I don't eat and breath and dream lies like you and so many of your misguided friends do.

tazzygirl -> RE: Rush Drawing fire for his haitian comments (1/15/2010 2:50:41 PM)
Master Kirata I often wonder if he simply falls behind that shield of an excuse when his ass is backed up too cloesly to the fire.

Projecting again Panda? I suppose that from this point on you're devoting the rest of your life and everything that you own to helping the people of Haiti... quote: ORIGINAL: ThatDamnedPanda They don't deserve any help because Sanity works hard for his money and they must not or they wouldn't need help.

Not surprised at all. [sm=soapbox.gif]

kittinSol -> RE: Rush Drawing fire for his haitian comments (1/15/2010 2:54:31 PM)
You'd think that with all the power and airtime he has, though, that he'd fucking well DO SOMETHING about the Haitian earthquake crisis. Or at least shut his trap, just out of respect for the victims - has he even seen the news? Any human being watching these terrible images is shaken by them. But what does he choose to do instead? He keeps on peddling his hateful crap, even deciding to use the earthquake as a means to score yet another cheap partisan point. How fucked up is that? It says everything anyone with an ounce of humanity within them needs to know about his character. I mean: does he call himself a fucking Christian? Because that would be rich, it really would be.
