By now pretty much everyone knows what Rush Limbaugh's comments were on ESPN:
"I think what we've had here is a little social concern in the NFL. The media has been very desirous that a black quarterback do well. There is a little hope invested in McNabb, and he got a lot of credit for the performance of this team that he didn't deserve. The defense carried this team."
To me, it sounds like a simple observation and it could have been made about any other player. The obvious problems for the liberal elitists are the first two sentences about social concerns in NFL and media's desire to see a black quarterback do well. Those two points got already bloodthirsty liberals all hyped up about it.
I'm not going to talk about what these comments mean. You can find Rush's own explanation and analysis at rushlimbaugh.com.
I just want to take a short break and look at how liberals reacting to this. Even if you think that these comments were over the top or whatever, just contrast the liberal media's, democrat presidential candidates', liberal hacks' reaction to say... dear senator Patty Murray's obvious propaganda to high school kids about Osama. She outright lied to young Americans to make a terrorist who masterminded the most deadly attack in the United States to look good. Do you remember the apologists who tried to spin what she said? We supposedly need to take time to understand our enemies. We supposedly admit that ultimately we brought these attacks ourselves by our own actions in the past. Do you remember how many high schools and colleges instituted islamic studies where students asked to read Koran? I have never ever heard from any of those same people asking us to try to understand Rush Limbaugh by listening to his show. They just want him fired. They just want him destroyed. See if you are a fanatical terrorist bent on killing innocent Americans, practicing elementary school takeovers in your training camps so that one day you can kill American children, dreaming up unspeakable terrorist acts against innocent people you sure get a better treatment from American liberals. But if you are a conservative commentator who is stating an opinion you must be destroyed.
Think about it...
