Fair enough.

If Obama was to come out and say "that fat honky cracker doesn't know what he's talking about" and defended the comment by saying "a WHITE commentator said it first"*, how would that go over?

Probably not well, and I have a few doubts that ol' Rush would say "well, he got me there" if it were to happen. That tubby fool would be shrieking like a hog in a slaughterhouse if a prominent black man attacked him with a racial slur and said "that's what white people say so I can say it too".

It is mind-buggering to me how so-called conservatives continue to listen to this guy. He is a draft dodging, thrice-divorced drug-addicted glutton. He talks about family values and patriotism and the American way but he clearly does not believe what he says.

It's like a group of liberals hanging on every word spoken by some unabashed homophobic Hummer-driving banker in a sealskin coat. It doesn't make sense.


*I don't have a direct quote, but I've heard Bill Maher, Jon Stewart, Al Franken and a few others talk about Limbaugh and I know he's been called all those names
