Al Sharpton accuses Limbaugh of anti-Chinese racism; wants FCC to crack down. Al Sharpton is exploiting another non-story by jumping all over Rush Limbaugh’s imitation of Chinese (communist) President Hu Jintao. On a portion of yesterday’s Rush Limbaugh program, the radio host made the point that he was watching the speech that Jintao made at the White House during his recent visit, yet no one had the courtesy to translate on the channel he was watching. Limbaugh added that this was unusual because a translator normally speaks at the same time a foreign leader is giving a speech. So, to demonstrate the unintelligibility of Jintao’s words, Limbaugh took a few seconds to imitate what he heard—what any non-Chinese-speaking individual would hear. Predictably, liberal rabble-rousers like Sharpton are capitalizing on this non-story by accusing Limbaugh of racially mocking the communist president and even demanding that the FCC step in.

Liberals are only interested in silencing their critics.

like I said before - why is it ok for SNL, yet the media cries foul when Rush parodies?

Translators translate written documents, INTERPRETERS interpret speech into another language. I’m weary of illiterate journalists.

More racism...

Seriously SHUT SHARPTON UP .. loud mouthed childish hypocrite

[sweet_diane]

I wonder if he felt the same about Rosie O’s “ching chang chong” comments.

Hell, Sharpton needs closed captioning since he does not speak English.

Liberals should do what they've been preaching for years -- if you don't like what's on tv (or the radio), JUST TURN IT OFF!!!

Liberals have no conception of being hypocritical.... It's like the part of their brain that would recognize they're being hypocritical doesn't exist.

The next year and a half is going to be a nightmare.

Ear plug industry could experience a boom.

Wasn’t Sharpton and his bullhorn responsible for causing a riot that led to the death of Korean storeowners who had the audacity to run a store in Harlem?

[smartymarty]

Hey Sharpton....there is a ‘doctor’ in Pennsylvania brutally murdering children of color....and you’re picking on this?? Get a life!

[Doogle]

1000 more hits on Rush’s homepage.......

Sharpton warm up for Chinese reparations shakedown.

Big Al plays the Chinese race card.

[Doogle]

STILL paying your taxes Al?

[Dr. Ursus]

Hey,AL,the Han Chinese refer to non-Han as the (Blank) minority.The Chinese don’t need a fool from the black minority defending them!

[Conservative Vermont Vet]

I wouldn't worry too much about the "Reverend" Al's complaint to the FCC, unless they have someone who can translate "Ebonics!"

Is that raaaaacist? lol

[SC_Pete]

I hope Sean Hannity has seen the light with regard to Al Sharpton. I always wondered why he gave that racist POS any airtime whatsoever. Let’s hope that’s the end of it.
