The Racist Truth About Beck and Limbaugh »
Posted By Tumultuous 2 months, 2 weeks ago in Political OpinionWith admirable calm, President Obama has sought to deflect the supercharged politics of race by expressing his optimism about American attitudes and ignoring the most extreme statements by his critics. For his own sake, as well as the nation's, he is wise to give a pass to the likes of Glenn Beck and Rush Limbaugh. That is not, however, what they deserve.

The past has a way of defining our character in the present. Both Becky's and Limpball's past is replete with their racial animus towards blacks. Just look it up, the evidence is there in black & white and in color. And their antics now does little to dispense the notion that race baiting is one of their modus operandi in opposing Obama. It's sad that many of our citizens tolerate and support their racial hatred and animosity towards others with a different skin color.

i'd say it was the democratic modus operandi to proclaim ANYTHING not in line with party thought is racist.

i had to laught when i saw a picket sign that read:
'it doesn't matter what this sign says. It's racist'
this post is a self parody of any real thought.

it is great how Obama has refused to lower himself down to the level of the becks and limbaughs of the world.
Reply
and this piece lays it out nicely, that by their own measuring sticks, if beck and limbaugh took an honest look at their pasts and the things they've said, publicly and on the air, they'd have to label themselves as racists. -

Sorry j, they're already flowing down the sewer, along with their dilllldo heads and mormon teliban. Floating with the floaters and dead rats, occasionally erupting like some foul geyser to stink up the air waves.

In the red states, its called entertainment gossip news, used to be called lynching back in the good ol' days, now they call it fixed noise infotainment.

I'm shocked. I tell you I am absolutely shocked. You mean it's really true - Beck and Limpy are Racists? And because those bumps on their butts are Hannity and Colter and Humphrey and...you mean they are racists too?

Next thing I know you'll be calling the Republicans racists.
And I can just see it now. They will claim they are not racists as they continue to bring their Jungle Bunnies to rallies and construct their signs about watermelon patches and - well you seen them.
And I disagree with fifty nine in a sort of way. I think the die hard Republican supporters will proclaim their intelligence because they have promoted Limpy to head of their party. You know the "Excellence in Broadcasting" guy?
These people know who are the good Americans , Limpy has told them so. And don't forget that light of brilliance Sarah Palin.
Would some good Samaritan put me out of my misery if I ever again vote for a Republican Candidate for office? -

was beck a hypocrite when he was praising bush's huge bailouts and huge spending?
Reply
and beck was surely being a racist when he regularly mimicked African-American speech patterns for fun on his old radio show and esposed the philosophy of Mormon crank author and conspiracy theorist W. Cleon Skousen, whose writings he enthusiastically promotes to this day.
Among Skousen's pet theories was that Southern slave owners were actually the victims of the plantation system.
and hey, we all know mormonism has racism built into it.
you should read the piece. -

Dumbocrats or ditto heads? Automan, what difference does it make what party you support if you are a racist? Daddy Limpy done told you, huh?
Reply
Is it true that if a racist Democrat changes to the racist Republicans - the net effect is an increase in the intelligence of both parties?
There are probably as many racists in one party as the other. But this article was about Beck and Limpy. Those who say that the two are not racist do so because they want to , not because they believe it. Unless of course they've listened to the EIB one time too many. -
