Will Limbaugh ever be held accountable for his racist BS?
Edited on Mon Sep-12-11 01:39 PM by maxrandb
Happened to catch a few minutes of the "round mound of ass-clown" during lunch. He played one of those sophomoric parody songs equating President Obama with "Shaft"...ya' know, the "bad mother....."?

How this ass-hat is able to get away with this is unbelievable. I wonder when folks in the MSM will start asking the Republicans if they share the same beliefs as the titular "LEADER" of the Republican Party? Hey CNN...are you listening?

This fat pr#*% ought to be hung around the Repubs neck like an albatross until they start renouncing him.

Oh, and if and when they renounce him...watch the fur fly!

2. That's top shelf humor for his listeners. Barack the magic negro song they love even more.

3. The problem is that the repugs no longer conceal their racism
It is now a proud part of who they are.

He does it because he gets paid to do it.

7. Didn't the Dems do something behind the scenes a few years ago?
I seem to remember James Carville taking credit for the whole 'Rush Limbaugh is the Republican Party' thing. That wasn't exactly what you are talking about, but it was subtle maneuvering to use his reputation to harm the Republican brand.

But anyway, what you are proposing wouldn't work or go anywhere. If you ask any Republican if they support something distasteful that Limbaugh said they would just say 'no . . . next question.'

8. What accounting would you like to have?
I think he is accountable for them, since he's disliked by people who dislike them. What more do you want?

9. I would like to see him fired
...he hasn't said anything new for 21 years anyway. I bet if they played a tape of Limbaugh from 1994 one where he wasn't calling the Clinton's mass murderers, that no one would notice it was an old tape.

10. Why? He's an industry.
Don't look a bloated, drug addicted, philandering, racist, bigoted, gift horse in the mouth.

12. No.
He will go to his grave without ever being held accountable. It sucks. But that's how it goes sometimes.

15. Re-enact the Fairness Doctrine.
I think (think, mind, I'm not an expert) it's the only way to get rid of this shitbag and his brethren and sistern...at least on radio and television. You may dislike me for saying this, but I'd gladly give up the handful of more leftish broadcasters we've got out there to rid ourselves of these poisonous racist Nazi liars.
