Sorry, but I disagree with you. I find the comment by Rush calling Senator Mark Kirk a white boy elitist very racist. You see it works both ways and both ways are wrong

Blacks are BY FAR AND AWAY the most racist sphincters on the planet. While there are notable exceptions to this fact, the most racially-tinged, racially-intolerant screeds and diatribes consistently come from the most deeply pigmented members of society and have for decades.

The reason is simple: Whites, by and large, want racism in any and all forms to disappear from our National discourse, while Blacks want to feed the smouldering embers of that otherwise dying fire and fan it again into a raging conflagration, to justify their self-serving, denial-strewn desire for unrealistic things like "reparations" (giving taxpayers' money to Blacks because there once were Black slaves) and "a redsitribution of America's wealth" (taking money from those who earned it and giving it to those who either can't or won't earn it).

The problem with this short and short-sighted wish list is that there is no probative justification for either. America gives all her citizens the same opportunities (except in the case of "Affirmative Action," which has tilted the scales of Social Justice in patently unfair favor of Blacks for several decades now, and has done so with no objectively observed positive result—we still have a miasma of racist Blacks whining and snivelling for ever more handouts from a society which has bent over backwards to accommodate their petulantly adolescent beggary and extortions.

The day is quickly coming when these ruptured discontents will crush themselves into oblivion under the unsustainable mass of their pecuniary intolerance and abusive demands.

America will (and has... for decades!) extend a helping hand to those who need assitance getting back up from a fall, but she will not be raped and robbed and sit still for it. The American Black can either crap or get off the pot on this one.

The free ride is over, and the racism being spewed by these amoral slobs is precisely the evil that they pretend to rail against. Enough is enough. Get a life, you bigots.

Or, better still, a job. If, that is, you can find one in Obama's New and Improved [sic] economy.

This is a common event in Obamastan. DOJ says that it may be a crime to insult a muslim. So, what is it when a muslim says KILL ALL NON BELIEVERS, JEWS ARE DESCENDED FROM PIGS, CONVERT TO ISLAM OR DIE? What about all of the Christians that are being murdered for their faith? What about all the Christian churches that are being burned? Jesus said DO UNTO OTHERS AS YOU WOULD HAVE THEM DO UNTO YOU. I think it’s about time we did to them what they do to us.

No jail space?

What did England do?

Deportation!

They claim africa as their continent of heritage. If they can't follow the laws and customs of America, they should be sent home.

The term “boy” can be used to insult someone if it is preceded by “white” but terming Barack Obama, someone few have wanted to say “no” to a “boy king” with little maturity is “racist”.

Orwellian/Stalinist is what it is.

Maybe I should call Barack a “white boy” king since half of his parentage (and much of his upbringing) was white.

A friendly greeting.

It's as friendly as they get coming from them.

The answer is: It depends. It's impossible to determine the correct answer without knowing whether the epithet came from the white politician or the black politician.

That's not entirely true. It also depends on the political party. As we have seen with Senator Byrd, using a racial slur has no negative consequences whatsoever as long as you are a white DemocRat.

White men are routinely called the offensive term “white boy” by blacks with impunity, but just see what happens when a white man calls a black man “boy.” All hell breaks loose.

Kirk is the Republican in this scenario. You did know that, right?

...actually, I believe he thinks the Rush in the article is Limbaugh...

I think if Kirk used the second of the two words Rush used to describe him, he would have been run out of the Senate on a rail.

Love that song. Brings back great memories of working at the theater, beyond its era.

Bobby Rush is right 98.7% of the time? Are you sober?

The fundamental irony here is that ex-Black Panther (Black Panthers used to recognize the 2nd Amendment as a basic human right kept from them by the KKK) Bobby Rush is now working to keep guns out of the hands of Chicago blacks. Such are the things of politics, no?
