re: Another black sportswriter comes out against Rush.

It's a vulgar term. Trying to get ratings by calling for segregation is something completely different. Hell, I get offended when I deal with Black people who want to self-segregate, but that's another story...

Being "offended" by someone implying that (1) you're less intelligent, and (2) implying that because of the color of your skin is totally different from someone using vulgar language.

At this point, Michael J. Fox has not played a down in the NFL, which makes that comment a bit less relevant to this discussion.

When you summarize what he said the way you do, you are intentionally trying to make him look like a dick.

No I'm trying to summarize what he said.

Rush said Mcnabb is overrated cause he is black, TRUE OR FALSE?

Jay Z don't try to divide people, use scare tactics to scare people. Jay Z don't bring up people's race, skin color, religion, political views, etc. That's what some people are opposed too. The NFL UNITES people black, white, hispanic, arab, etc. No matter what your political views are people get along.

you just opened yourself up to a grab bag of people quoting JayZ lyrics and beating you over the head with them. Congrats

WHen Rush said there should be segregated buses that says a lot. For all I know he probably think sports should be segregated too, I mean a black athlete hit a white athlete recently. He brought up that segregated bus shite to get people riled up and there's a segment of this population that would love to go back to those days.

wow you are dumb

Referring to an incident in which a white student was beaten by black students on a bus, Limbaugh said: “I think the guy’s wrong. I think not only it was racism, it was justifiable racism. I mean, that’s the lesson we’re being taught here today. Kid shouldn’t have been on the bus anyway. We need segregated buses — it was invading space and stuff. This is Obama’s America.”

---

it appears using sarcasm and a sardonic style is way over your head

and he went even further mocking the whole story:

quote:

---

“In Obama’s America, the white kids now get beat up with the black kids cheering, ‘Yay, right on, right on, right on, right on,” Limbaugh also said. “I wonder if Obama’s going to come to come to the defense of the assailants the way he did his friend Skip Gates up there at Harvard.”

“White Americans are racists who have created what they call free markets that really just enslave the rest of America and her trading partners,” Limbaugh also mocked. “I mean, it was white Americans that ran off Van Jones. No, look, let’s just follow Eric Holder’s advice and not be cowards about all this. Let’s have an open conversation, an honest conversation about all of our typical white grandmothers. You had one, I had one. Obama had one. They’re racists just like our students are. ACORN — hey, nothing but racism fueling the pursuit of ACORN.”

Limbaugh also suggested that racism itself was acceptable.

“If homosexuality being inborn is what makes it acceptable, why does racism being inborn not make racism acceptable?” the talk show host asked. “I’m sorry — I mean, this is the way my mind works. But apparently now we don’t choose racism, we just are racists. We are born that way. We don’t choose it. So shouldn’t it be acceptable, excuse — this is according to the way the left thinks about things.”

---

that is the jist of all of this: "this is according to the way the left thinks about things"
not a return to segregation

This akin to having someone ask you why we went to war in Iraq and you saying "because Bush lied."

It is a one sided synopsis intended to present things how you want them presented.

Do you really believe Rush said that exactly like you are presenting it?

---

Rush said that shite to get people riled up. I know what he was doing. I live in an area that's about 2-3% black,very conservative and a lot of idiots in this area loved that idea. They took what he said seriously. They don't want their kids on buses with blacks, don't want their kids associating with blacks and we have a small black population. Rush should watch what he say even if he's joking because people do think like that. Jay Z don't influence people political views, social views, racial views like Rush does.

Can some point me to some of the things Jay Z did or said that divides people?

ETA "right on right on." Yeah he was trying to get whites riled up during that lil segment.

a 3 setnence statement by Rush compared to the Iraq war? lol


I think it is possible to summarize what Rush said very simply, and not possible to summarize why we went to war in Iraq quite so simply.

I'm going by what HIS listeners feel in my country backwoods area. How they LIKED that idea. You don't live here, you don't represent 2-3% of the population here.

You don't think that young black men are iunfluenced by rap insofar as how they treat women and how they live their lives? I'm not saying all, but some?

Yes. Jay-Z raps about watching sex and the city with Beyonce and everyone knows black males are a large core of that shows viewers

What Rush said was not that simple though. When you state it like that, you leave out the media, which was the focus of his criticism, and you only include Rush and McNabb. And it makes it a Rush criticizing McNabb thing instead of Rush criticizing the media.
