Rush is the profesional wrestler of broadcasting. He has syolen Jessie Jacksons style and applied it to conservitism. The only difference is Rush weighs more.

And thats what makes it so digusting. When did a white person ever HAVE TO sit at the back of the bus, use a different restroom,..... It was less than 40 years ago that black people in this country were actually allowed to exercise their civil rights that should have been afforded to all people no matter of race. Come talk to me in 50 years or so and you may have an argument. Seeing how all us latino's are getting to be a larger and larger percentage of the population. But I'll save that for another thread!

Thanks for the heads up Ryan. I'm not flaming anybody. Just stating facts. A white caucasion male is becoming a smaller and smaller percentage of the general population. The guy said that Rush stole Jackson's style and applied it to conservatism. I always thought Jackson's style was speaking out for minorities rights. I would never want anybody to have negative attitude's about their history or who they are. You should feel proud about your lineage and what they stood/stand for. I respect you for wanting to keep that heritage alive.

As suburban or rural white guys we cannot even imagine the situation for most urban minorities. The shame that is still heaped upon most poor kids of color in this country through the media is staggering and reason enough by itself to diminish their chances of ever doing better than their parent(s). Until this country keeps it's promise of "equal opportunity" to the children of succeeding generations of poor minorities there will be no end to the racial and ethnic discord we continually see.

Rush did steal Jacksons style. They both make a lot of money promoting racism all the while claiming that they are just trying to tell the "truth".Why is Rush more popular? Because white people make up the majority in the USA.

We should all feel proud to be Americans.

Actually that was a whole different issue, but since you brought it up; Rush just announced 12 noon PST that he was addicted to prescription pain killers and has been for the past 5 or 6 years. I know the drug he was taking, I know what it does and doesn't do. I have had 10 surgeries in the past 3 years and takew this medication also. I also know how stinkin hard it is to get off of. Rush is going into a 30 day treatment center. He can do that, he's wealthy. But for alot of us with jobs and families to support we don't have that option. I do know that when Rush Limbaugh talks about his struggles and his pain and this med, that he's telling the truth. For whatever that is worth, if anything.

I think Rush is basically a windbag. Being mostly conservative myself I have ferreted out some things I agreed with the few times I listened to him.
I would have to side with Rush on this one and I don't know didley about football players. I think it is just a game and look at it as such.
Waxy it is amusing how much like Rush you are in the way you express yourself.
