Discussing Obama, Limbaugh suggests Dems, media believe "you can't criticize the little black man-child"
On the August 20 broadcast of hisnationally syndicated radio show, Rush Limbaugh asserted of attacks by Sen.John McCain against Sen. Barack Obama: "[S]ee, there are Democrats -- thedrive-bys" -- a term Limbaugh uses to denote the national media -- "are just so upset with these so-called'ferocious attacks.' These have been benign. Even the BritneySpears/Paris Hilton ad was funny. It wasbenign." He later added: "It's -- you know, it's just-- it's just we can't hit the girl. I don't care how farfeminism's saying, you can't hit the girl, and you can't --you can't criticize the little black man-child. You just can't doit, 'cause it's just not right, It's not fair. He'ssuch a victim."

Any doubt that Rush is just dying to scream out the N-word in hopes of no one caring or noticing?
Coulter, Savage, O'Reilly, Hannity, Beck, Levin, etc, etc must all be sitting at their desks wondering which one of them will be the first to scream out the word first in the race to the bottom?
Is there not a brave one among them?

If Grampy is the first to blurt the word....... any chance that it would finally put the nail in his political career coffin?
Or would the rightwing corporate owned media simply chalk it up as just another 'senior' moment?

It's not the N-word Limbaugh is hinting at here. It's the S-Word. The LBS-Word, to be precise.

I thought America was a melting pot. By saying someone who is an "America hater" is a racist, means you ASSUME (there you go again!) that America is only full of white people.

Nice. You didn't rebut my post nor respond to any of my points. Instead, you listed lunatics as representatives of the left-wing.
Which Senator called soldiers 'baby killers'?
And speaking of radical gays (of which I am one), we're nowhere near as lunatic as you want and portray us to be. At least radical gays don't shoot people, blow up clinics and Federal buildings to prove a point...unlike the those on your side who relish in terrorism, authoritarianism and hypocrisy - all under the mantle of the flag and G-d.

Your comment…..“First of all, ignoramus, Farrakhan, Wright and Ayers are not members of the mainstream left. They are lunatics that most mainstream liberal Americans despise.”
My comment …….Does the fact that Senator Barack Obama has said many times he admires Farrakhan, Rev. Wright and Ayers and has called them his friends classify Mr. Obama as a lunatic also?
Your comment……”At least the Democratic party doesn't make it common practice to carrouse (sp?) with such satanic inbreds - as the Republican party does with it's racists.”
My comment………The most hateful remarks and racist statements I have ever heard toward right wing thinkers are on left wing cable shows such as Bill Maher and the always fair minded Keith Olbermann show. I won’t bother to list the myriad of blog sites that spew hate and anger with their comments.
My question is…… Why are Democrats so angry, hateful and mean toward anyone who would disagree with their comments or choices?.

Have you actually heard any of Wright's sermons -- entire sermons, not just the clips on the Internet? Have you spent any time at the church? Where do you get your information that Wright is an "America hater?" Sources matter.
Do you listen to Pat Buchanan? How about Corsi? They have been openly racist for years. By your own logic, if Obama is racist, so are you.

So basically you're saying that Senator Obama is a racist because he went to a church where YOU say the pastor is a racist.
OK, so that means that practicing Catholics are child-rapists - even if they haven't engaged in such dispicable behavior (because of the actions of a few pedophile priests)? Your logic sucks. Again.

Good point - McCain's associations with Limbaugh and Hannity are just as strong as Obama's associations with Wright and Ayers.
IIRC Michael Pfleger echoed what Limbaugh once stated about Hillary Rodham and only one of them was blasted to pieces for it...

Ok, I get it, you hate Rush, and to a degree I can see your point, he can be a blow hole, but to even remotly try to connect an American bomber and American hater to a republican hack is a far streach.

Are you suggesting Obama go negative?
I doubt the wisdom of that. Also, McCain can't really be linked to Limbaugh ... who is lukewarm at best in his support of "da mav". Hannity might have better linkability, since Sean made an iddy-biddy freudian slip on H&C a few weeks ago, acknowledging himselft to be a McCain surrogate. McCain, on the other hand, hasn't acknowledged Handy-Sean's surrogacy, but instead has made a big effort to remain detached from the rightie-hate-radio pundints ... fact, not opinion. Obama's campaign can't afford to stab blindly at McCain making false accusations about McCain/pundint collaborations.

Socilized medicine / healthcare ( Englands is BROKE, out of money, rationing, Same in Canada ), class envy, ( pitting Evil Rich against do nothing welfare handout waiting leachs ). That will not win, nor has it won your side elections.
The far left in this great country has to HIDE it's real intent as long as it can. It nevers tells the truth about what it has planned for America. Total welfare state, ALL services and needs PROVIDED by the commie elites, no incentive to work, just wait for your handout, rampant drug use and lawlessness. What a great utopia that is...

Rampant drug use and lawlessness MG? That's pretty funny, considering Rush Limbaugh's percocet popping past. Remember, he made his housekeeper buy him narcotics on the street? I believe that buying and using unprescribed narcotic painkillers is against the law, even for a facist.
Also, we are the America lovers! We love freedom, including freedom of speech, even when we do not agree.
I am appalled that anyone would even try to defend Rush's words about Barack. The words he used are so obviously racist, there is no way to defend them at all.
You have not come up with one shred of actual evidence to back up your claims of racism or hate speak on the part of liberals or Barack Obama. You just do a lot of vitriolic spewing.

"I guess the mainstream media is keeping its hands off of the messiah."
This "messiah" crap was started by cons like you.
The political side that considers itself to be the most holy, the most faithful, and the most devout is so sacred of Obama that they've found it necessary to hijack and propagandize a term that I thought mistakenly thought was sacred and exclusive to their Lord and savior, Jesus Christ.
The conservative right has taken "messiah" and turned it into a cheap school yard taunt. I hope you're all proud of yourselves.

BHO took the flag of the USA off his plane, replaced it with his "new one world order" OHB symbol, talks about being "a citizen of the world" and I wonder just who is the radical... BHO or Rush.
At least Rush talks about pride in America, while the Obama's do not...

Lets's get some facts straight.
FACT - Obama's plane was owned by North American Airlines. Their trademarked logo, a stylized American flag, can be found on the tail of all their planes. What was removed was a trademarked image.
FACT - Obama's campaign plane was repainted, just as other candidates have repainted their campaign planes to make them function as a marketing tool.
FACT - Obama's plane has an American flag on it, right next to the registration numbers on the fuselage. Which is the traditional place to put the flag on an American plane.
Again, people don't have any real issues to bring up, so they nitpick minutiae. If you really want to bother with this, explain why McCain is riding in a FRENCH made plane that is white, blue, and yellow -hardly patriotic colors, don'tcha think? If it's silly to bring this up regarding McCain, then it's silly to obesess over this with Obama.
For me, patriotism isn't about clothing or logos or pins or buttons or stuff like that. That's all surface, and is easy for anyone to do. I care more about someone being a patriot than them showing off their patriotism like it's some cheap accessory. I care about issues, not presentation, then again I'm a liberal.

ONE person from the Dem party has referred to Obama as the messiah - and not even in the way you douches on the right mean it. Then, you righties took the moniker, ran with it, and use it, as Pete said above, as a school yard taunt. Nice. You're dispicable.
And to respond briefly to your post about liberals being commies, want a communist nation, etc. That's all bs - and you freakin' know it. Communism wouldn't advance our causes and the things we care about. In fact, Communism would kill our side just as much as Fascism is killing your side right now.

What do you want then?
Are you for the GOV controling / providing all healthcare?
Are you for re-distribution of wealth?
Are you for the GOV "socilizing" oil companies?
Are you for tax increases?
Are you for cradle to grave "social" programs?
We can go one by one and debate them..

Pelosi said that Obama was a blessing, not the messiah.
Pelosi probably has too much respect for Jesus to describe Obama in the blasphemous way that conservatives have.

If McCain can literally,legally say 'dont vote for the N**R' and get elected, he would be shouting it from the roof top tomorrow. And there will still be people voting for him. Enough to get him elected? We will know how race conscious Americans are (similar to taliban in a way), in November.
He has no principles, he is no maverick, and he is no different from Bush.

redbaronfoe,
Thank you for your pointed instruction and encouragement against the use of insults. The manner of your conduct here over the years, fully demonstrates how to keep the dialogue above the demeaning use of insults and allow those who visit here, to see the benefit and gain from your fine examples of 'insultless' discourse posted here that show that insults should not be used as a part of one's efforts to win the debate, no matter how tempting it might be for someone, not you of course, to fill their postings with insult after insult with those with whom they disagree because of course, placing of insults in comments demeans the process of exchanging ideas and would indicate one's inability to demonstrate superiority of rationale or clearly have lost the argument. To see it otherwise would be....insulting.
Thank you for continuing to lead the way in refraining from any insulting insinuations or comments that are intended to insult and therby show weakness in the core of your belief system.

What's the matter, PC? You've spent the same amount of time here doing just that. Sorry to hear you can dish it out but can't take it. Get used to it, y'all lowered the bar on civil discourse. I'm just playing by your rules. So stop crying like Depends John, you suddenly found civility PC.

Talk abaout a lie...
RACE is NOT the reason we want to defeat BHO...
I think he is a radical, far left socialist...
If Condie Rice was running I'd vote for her, and last I looked she is a WOMAN and African American.
So piss off...
It's policies, judgemnts, taxes, oil, socilized medicine that I hate...

Snoopy,
Jesus Christ was no political figure, though he affected the politics of the day, but He was all about saving souls. When our Lord died for the ungodly, he bore the sins of all who would believe in Him as their Savior, from the ills of sin in this world and the next.
Many wanted Him to become a political or military leader to expel the Romans and re-establish a physical government at that time. But His kingdom is spiritual and anyone who calls upon Him, will be saved!
His work is way beyond politics because correct politics never saved anyone from damnation. Having the proper political beliefs are not the way to obtain eternal salvation.

Well, I like to use strawman arguments against people who are making strawman arguments. Seems only fitting.
Like your two comics though. It's good to have a sense of humor.

I'd still vote for her, I never said I want to overturn RvWade, it's the law... I'd say it stands... Nothing wrong with Affirm Action either, hand up, not hand out, I have said from start.
She is smart and loves this country... nuf said.

Then you better find another party because the Republican party platform is for overturning both roe v wade and affirmative action.

So, do you agree that Obama is a "radical socialist"? If so, would you please provide a web definition from a non-partisan source for the term "radical socialist" for me, and make a case for how Obama fits the definition?
Otherwise, careful readers here might assume you are a right-wing hack spewing red-scare propaganda.
FYI radical socialists, marxists, and communists all have their own parties. The democratic party supports capitalism, and is neither communist, marxist, or stalinist, no matter how many times a day you hear right-wing radio pundints claim it. Dems like Obama do support higher tax rates for the very wealthy than the working class, and tighter regulation to keep greedy corporations in line, I'll grant, but that's not socialism.

Ann is 10,
Here is what makes for a marxist:
Seeking the endorsement of the CDSA in his first election. ttp://www.chicagodsa.org/ngarchive/ng45.html#anchor1078925
What's the CDSA you ask??????
http://www.chicagodsa.org/index.html
And ne'er we forget William Ayers, the unrepentent leftist terrorist of Weatherman infamy....
"Mr. Obama also fit in at Hyde Park’s fringes, among university faculty members like Bill Ayers and Bernadine Dohrn, unrepentant members of the radical Weather Underground that bombed the United States Capitol and the Pentagon to protest the Vietnam War. Mr. Obama was introduced to the couple in 1995 at a meet-and-greet they held for him at their home, aides said."
That from this article..

PC, at least you tried to respond rationally, so props for that.
You've adequately proven that CDSA is a communist group.
However, ju
