Rush Limbaugh Wants Segregation Back

September 18. 2009

In a sensationally bad interview, radio host Rush Limbaugh called for the return of segregation, separating blacks from whites, due to an incident involving a Caucasian young man, who was attacked by a group of black teens on a school bus. I denounce the beating as racist and ugly and the kids involved should be legally punished.

Back to Limbaugh. Rush really showed his true colors with this one. There have been racially motivated assaults regarding whites ganging up on blacks and blacks ganging up on whites. Both races are guilty of that.

However, there are many blacks and whites, who are not racist and do not wish to return to the primitive, hateful ways of slavery, segregation and Jim Crow.

Mr. Limbaugh has discredited himself with these regressive, racist statements and amazingly spooled the President into his diatribe, referring to America as Obama's nation.

Obama does not own America and neither do you, Rush. God made and owns this country and every other nation in the world. He did not create it for people to abuse and harass others or lay claims to superiority over one's fellow man.

While, I don't agree with President Obama's views on abortion and stem cells, I'm tired of people negatively bringing up his race. The President is black, get over it. It is really sad that nine months into his presidency, this is still an issue for some people.

One day I hope there will be a Hispanic president as well. While we're at it, an Indian president as well (Hey, if you want to get technical, Rush, they were here first).

Some people care too much about race and not the real issues and it is proving to be a terrible distraction. I can understand one faulting Obama on abortions issues, on the grounds it goes against religion, but do not fault him for being black, as such racism is just vile. 

Side Bar: people should give Rush the Kanye treatment for his statements.

Limbaugh: We need segregated buses

Published: September 17, 2009 - In a remark extraordinary even by the standards of conservative talk show host Rush Limbaugh, the right-wing radio heavyweight declared on his program Wednesday that the United States needed to return to racially segregated buses.

Referring to an incident in which a white student was beaten by black students on a bus, Limbaugh said: “I think the guy’s wrong. I think not only it was racism, it was justifiable racism. I mean, that’s the lesson we’re being taught here today. Kid shouldn’t have been on the bus anyway. We need segregated buses — it was invading space and stuff. This is Obama’s America.”...

“Police initially said the beating of the white student by two black students appeared to be racially motivated,” the Associated Press wrote. “But police on Tuesday backed away from that.”

That didn’t stop Limbaugh from making his comments Wednesday.

“In Obama’s America, the white kids now get beat up with the black kids cheering, ‘Yay, right on, right on, right on, right on,” Limbaugh also said. “I wonder if Obama’s going to come to come to the defense of the assailants the way he did his friend Skip Gates up there at Harvard.”

“White Americans are racists who have created what they call free markets that really just enslave the rest of America and her trading partners,” Limbaugh also mocked. “I mean, it was white Americans that ran off Van Jones. No, look, let’s just follow Eric Holder’s advice and not be cowards about all this. Let’s have an open conversation, an honest conversation about all of our typical white grandmothers. You had one, I had one. Obama had one. They’re racists just like our students are. ACORN — hey, nothing but racism fueling the pursuit of ACORN.”...
