I have been a faithful Rush Limbaugh radio show listener for almost 20 years. I have never heard Rush make one racist comment. As a matter of fact, I am a black man who has been inspired and encouraged by Rush on numerous occasions. Rush is part of a partnership bidding to purchase an NFL football team. I am highly offended watching the liberal media's all out assault on this great American. In their efforts to block Rush from ownership of a team, the liberal media and the Left are attempting to brand Rush as a racist.
The media's charges of racism against Rush are totally based on supposed "racist quotes" which cannot be documented and comments knowingly taken out of context from his radio show. As a member of Rush's weekly 20 million listening audience, I take the assault on him personally. If Rush is a racist, then isn't it logical to assume that we, his listeners, are equally guilty for tolerating his racism? Obviously, Rush's accusers have never listened to his radio show or else have an agenda. It is truly disheartening and infuriating to witness the media's frenzied character assassination of Rush built on falsehoods and hearsay without one shred of evidence. Knowing the truth about Rush, how can I possibly trust any reporting by the mainstream media?
Adding insult to injury, Rev. Al Sharpton, considered to be a respected spokesperson for the black community by the liberal media has weighed in with his opposition to Rush being allowed to own a team. Given Sharpton's role in the Tawana Brawley scam, it is truly amazing that he is considered a credible representative of the black community... talk about Bizarro World. How dare this characterless con man pass judgment on Rush!
Beyond Rush, the larger issue is the tyrannous yoke political correctness has on our society and the swift punishment delivered with an iron fist by its enforcers, the liberal biased media. Rush's true crime is boldly speaking the truth about several of the liberal media's sacred cows, challenging their premises and opposing their far left agenda.
For example, the NAACP, a sacred cow of the Left, is without question a liberal partisan organization. Rush, a white guy, stated this truth out loud, thus violating rule number one on the media's politically correct list of do's and don'ts. "Whites under no circumstances are permitted to publicly criticize blacks." Offenders are verbally flogged within an inch of their lives and branded with a virtual "R" on their forehead for racist.
The liberal media has no problem with throwing Rush's 20 million listeners along with Rush under their "you're a racist" bus. They are relentless in protecting their sacred cows and are willing to sacrifice and impugn all. Take their sacred cow ObamaCare, outrageously, the liberal media calls the over 50% of Americans who oppose it racists. When their married president Bill Clinton had sex with an intern, the liberal media told us that every man in America, fathers, clergy, coaches and whomever would behave as Clinton did if given the opportunity. To defend Clinton, the liberal media sacrificed the morals and character of all men. In essence proclaiming, "All men are dogs".
Remember what the liberal media did to a young beauty pageant contestant who shyly gave a politically incorrect response when asked about gay marriage, another of their sacred cows? Miss California, Carrie Perjean was vilified.
While I stand beside my hero, Rush Limbaugh, as I stated earlier there is a much larger issue at stake extremely threatening to our freedom, liberty and culture. We cannot trust the mainstream media. We are at war; liberal media's and the Left's Political Correctness versus the Freedom and Free Speech of the America people. Our enemy's mission is to silence all dissent. We serfs must worship their sacred cows or suffer the consequences.
The liberal media and the Left have been attempting to silence Rush and other conservatives for years. Make no mistake about it, their latest bogus "Rush is a racist" campaign is another stealth attack on our freedom of speech. It is extremely important that lovers of freedom rally around Rush Limbaugh. Silencing Rush would be a major victory in their quest to silence and control us all.

Anyone who's listened to Rush very long knows that he's not racist. The main stream media partisan liberal media has had it in for Rush for a long time and they see this as their chance to stick it to him for being a conservative voice.
To date, Rush has mostly ignored or joked about all the attacks over the years, but this is different and he needs to draw a line in the sand and go after every single scumbag, and HARD!
And the almighty TV camera.
Rush is being lynched by a bunch of made up by some internet blogger which are being taken by the MSM as fact. Rush has some good lawsuit material here and I hope he pursues it.
Well the truth is that the liberals do not want to here the truth, so they call anyone who disagree with “racists”. They know Rush is RIGHT.
....Also I did hear that Rush is looking to sue those who slander him.
I wasn't until Obama.
I was a white middle class kid in Boston Trade (about 90% black in the early 60's) and I was what the kids call today a 'wigger'
My hip eye days were very intergrated .. but now?
teacher! ... teacher!
No most of the racist today are black and/or liberal.
Well if that is the case, then the college football world is now ready to receive me with open arms. :)
UConn here I come!
Excellent piece.
I also enjoyed your video. http://www.lloydmarcus.com/?page_id=546
Keep up the worthy fight.
What is evolving is that White, conservative America is being inoculated against the "racism" meme. Soon, we won't care if some Lefty calls us the R word.
Ignorance is one thing; 'willful ignorance' quite another. It is the latter that drives and animates the Left - people of the lie, really - as they construct their false paradigms and/or deconstruct the truth; as they must, to survive.
Time for Rush to take his enemies - and America's - on! As must we all. . .
I'm thinking along those same lines.
Of course they are. Accept it. There is nothing you can do about it. You could be the adopted parents of 14 orphaned black children, you’d still be a racist for daring to let your radio let his voice through. Hell, you could be BLACK YOURSELF and guess what? Yep, you’re a racist. A self hating racist.
I’ve given up even caring what people think anymore. It seems nothing can be done to avoid being called/considered one.
Marcus doesn’t understand the liberal mindset when it comes to looking at others not sharing their views. Liberalism is at its core elitism and true liberals regard the vast majority of Americans as too stupid to make the “right” descisons in their lives. Obama’s famous comment about “bitter people clinging to their guns and religion” is really how he and other liberals see those of us who do not espouse their beliefs. Liberal often denigrated the “ignorant” people who voted for George Bush and the 20 million Rush listeners have always been derided as mind numbed robots who listen only to to brainwashed. It is elitist arrogance that have labeled the town hall protesters as nut jobs and insist on shoving socialized health care own the throats of the American people even when the vast majority are opposed to it. Thus it is easy to characterize Rush as a bigoted racist homophobe as that is how they see us too.
The Left knows this best; and why they crafted this truth-denying construct in the first place. Change minds; the way we think (per the inoculation); change the world. . .the power of the 'word'.
By their own hate; this 'Left' wants the Rush name, not only tarnished; they want it to evoke the most powerful, hateful responses when and wherever Rush's name is mentioned. They want to make 'Rush Limbaugh' a generic for racism, bigotry and ignorance and by turn, all who utter his name in his defense.
(Same MO working against the Left's more recently declared enemy, 'Fox News' - and by association, their audience. Add to that, the 'issue' of global warming and their broad-brushed slanders against all critics. One can safely note in conclusion, that the 'Left' owns a long and hate filled time-line of history where their 'ad nauseum' fills the nastiest and most degraded dustbins of history.)
