Hmmmm...if you say so.

Hard to believe though. Very, very hard. I think you're giving Limbaugh a big 'ole pass here. I know you don't give a damn what i think, but i just gotta put it out there.

Besides, a large portion of his audience? Italians? Really? I didn't know that.

What's he pulling these days? Seven million listeners a week? I'm sure there's a few 'paisani' among them.

LOL...yea, that's pretty likely. I thought he had more listeners than that. He's good at what he does, i'll give him that.

I know one or two Italian Americans who listen to him, but I doubt they make up a big percentage of his listeners.

If a famous black or Hispanic person would've said this, NO WAY would folks let it slide. Hell no. Man, Jesse Jackson said Hymietown damn near 25 years ago and even non-Jewish conservatives act as if they're offended even TODAY!!

I'd take it further, if anyone who isn't a right winger said this they'd be crucified.

Seems like right wingers get a lot of latitude when it comes to making ethnic or racial stereotypes
