Why are they standing up for a friggin’ Chicom leader? That place is, geographically and culturally the LEAST “American” state in the Union. Give ‘em independence, if they want it....

Have they asked Donald Trump to apologize? The Donald said he hates China and that they can’t be trusted. Personally I agree with Trump.

“urging radio show host Rush Limbaugh to apologize for comments on China’s”

As a second thought, Rush should agree to apologize, as soon
as Hawaii releases Obambie’s REAL birth certificate.

Straight up trade, one insincere apology for one valid long-form Certificate of Live Birth for Obama. Rush might go for that. He could have great fun with the apology.

Every time these Libtards go after Rush with some silly crap all they do is increase his popularity and ratings.

Yesterday it was Moochelle chomping down on a rack of Ribs and her Boob belt accentuating her lack of a rack.

Can't even remember what the Hate Limbaugh crap was from two weeks ago. It rolls of Rush's back like water off a duck.

Dud the idiots in Hawaii already get an apology from the SNL cast? Must have missed that one.

The chip-on-shoulder, perpetually offended minorities have been emboldened by decades of dominance in popular culture, mass media and many of our most visible institutions by self-hating white liberals.

It is at least some small consolation to get in the face of these types, whenever the opportunity presents itself, to palpably and forcefully illustrate that not all European Christian Americans despise their heritage.
