    I heard it, it's not that offensive. I don't see the big deal about it. Whatever happened to just changing the channel if you don't like it? Why is it then when some group is outraged, that they always want the head of the supposedly guilty party? Before long, there won't be any scalps left.

    The problem, if you want to put it that way, is that Obama himself laughed it off. Literally.

    Whether that should be enough to undercut all criticism of the thing -- and obviously it's not -- it certainly undercuts any chance of making this fit into the Rutgers template.

    The fact that Limbaugh is getting a free pass on this Magic Negro thing, not to mention the fact that he's made millions with "outrageous social commentary," is proof that your statement is incorrect.

    What do you expect from Rush, the Corpulant Drug Gobbler?

    Rush, as always, wants it both ways. He's been race-baiting for years . . . hell, it worked for George Allen, for a while, huh? But Rush is Rush . . . when he says something exceptionally-stupid (nothing new or different), he won't be held responsible . . . he'll say he's just an entertainer. Yet, he
    keeps up rolling out wingnut pronouncements from on high, as if they're gospel.

    They're all after your money, Tubby. No one could love you, for you.

    Ohhhh, everybody expects Rush to spew out racial insults. It's what he does, it's what he is.

    Like the Imus/Stern/Opie & Anthony crowd, the Fatass Pill-Popper is just itchin' for the day he can come up with an excuse to drop the N-bomb on the air. "Chigger, jigger, trigger... uhh... what comes next?"
