Oh good lord. Conservative does not = racist. Don't let your political alliances motivate your feelings on race.

Please provide some form of proof to that accusation before slandering someone. And no, I'm not a Limbaugh fan, he's too conservative even for me and I don't like his religious ramblings in political contexts.

Please Rush is kick ass.

It pisses me off that everyone is going nuts about this. McNabb is not doing too great this season and he is stating that but usually what he is saying is true.

What he was stating also was not Racist. Even McNabb himself said that he did not consider that comment racist and he ddin't expect an apology but he thinks that statement shouldn't have been said since it's talking about how much he sucks this season.

and i don't undertsand how a Black person can make fun of white guys all they want and then when i white guy make a comment about blacks the media goes crazy.

this is a f***ed up world and Rush just got screwed for speaking his mind. Remember it's "COMMENTARY," that means his opinions so if you don't like his opinion well then F*** off.

Just because someone discusses race has a factor in something, that does not make that argument racist. What Limbaugh said was that the NFL wanted a black quarterback to succeed because of the stereotype that black quarterbacks are not good. It was a comment about the NFL, not black people.

But hey, a white guy used the word "black" in a sentence, so therefore he must be racist. Is that the point that we've come to in this country? Has race become so volatile that even a mention of another race by a white person equals social judgement without trial or even logic skills?

I hope that Rush does not roll with this, but since he resigned I think he will. He should fight this tooth and nail. Someone needs to bring some sense into the world.

All signs point to Rush being forced to resign. ESPN doesn't want this taken any further...

It's a shame, really.
