"Go paint in the projects where all the Obama supporters are at"


I fail to see a word in the above quote that relates to race.

To be honest with you, no, it's not very nice to be a white male.

Why is that you ask?

Because we have to put up with all the whining, crying, moaning & whaling black people who place blame and point fingers at white people for their friggin' lot in life. People you've never met, and never will meet.

...and after all that, you wonder why some of them despise the sh** out of you.

so it must be MORE than RUSH pushing this agenda... threads like this are just as guilty.

That is a valid point but even octomom can be considered to be black, but I can see your point. But sence you are not a avid rush-head the experiment would not have worked on you anyway

So the statement itself doesn't seem to take it in the racist direction, but the fact that Rush said it overrides the actual words stated and makes it racist?

Most people would not have used these words simply because it's not how people speak conversationally:

"Go paint in the projects where there is a segment of people who are likely to be Obama voters." If they had, it really doesn't seem to change the meaning much from this anyway as far as the racial element is concerned:

"Go paint in the projects where all the Obama supporters are at."

It seems that the main argument is that the words themselves are not racist but because Rush said it, it's racist. I don't like Rush and have never listened to more than 5 minutes of his show. I agree that he can be rude and is generally obnoxious, but I can't identify the racism in his sentence.

Most people in this country don't give a damn about skin color.

It's the politicians and the media who hype it up.


Really people should ignore the instigators.

When you talk to the man or woman in your community - whether White or Black - you get along and respect each other - and like each other.

It is the media and the politicians that are trying to divide us. Don't fall into that trap.

Ok, but why does all of the Obama supporters have to come from the projects? Why could'nt they have come from the trailor parks? Or from the suburbs? Like I said before consider the source.

Maybe because you decided to oppress everyone around the damn world. Some of them? Like who? Let me guess.

If Rush is such a racist, why did he hire his call screener, twice. If his call screener thought Rush was a racist, why did he move from NYC and buy a home in West Palm Beach to work for Rush, again. Or is Bo Snerdly just another uncle Tom?
Liberals can enter their snide, snarky remarks in the next post.
