stoprush and the word Negroes.
@stoprush is using his blog to drum up anti Rush Limbaugh propoganda the same way liberals always do it. They tell half truths. Yes Rush Limbaugh said what stoprush quoted him as saying but it was in the context of satire after Harry Reid was said to have called Barack Obama a "light skinned negro". Harry Reid admits that he said it and it is also reported that Bill Clinton said Barack Obama should be serving him coffee rather than running for president. Rush Limbaugh combined the sentiments of two liberals who have never been accused of Racism and @stoprush tried to make hay out of it. Liberals have been guilty of fabricating supposed racist statements made by Rush Limbaugh in the past. Rush has threatened to sue them and blogs such as the Huffington Post have been forced to make retractions. Some liberals might not be aware that Rush Limbaughs call screener Bo Snerdley whose real name is James Golden is black himself.
stoprush lies about Rush Limbaugh
@Stoprush recently spread an unfounded lie that Rush Limbaugh made prejudice statements about Jews. This is categorically false. Here is what Norman Podoretz wrote on the subject. I sure hope @stoprush tweets again correcting his false allegation.
A Statement from Norman Podhoretz,
Author of "Why Are Jews Liberals?"
January 21, 2010
In my new book, "Why Are Jews Liberals?", I argue that it no longer makes any sense for so many of my fellow Jews to go on aligning themselves with the forces of the Left. I also try to show that our interests and our ideals, both as Americans and as Jews, have come in recent decades to be better served by the forces of the Right.
In the course of describing and agreeing with the book the other day, Rush Limbaugh cited a few of the numerous reasons for the widespread puzzlement over the persistence of liberalism within the American Jewish community. And while discussing those reasons, he pointed to the undeniable fact that for “a lot of people”--prejudiced people, as he called them twice--the words “banker” and “Wall Street” are code words for "Jewish." Was it possible, he wondered, that Obama’s attacks on bankers and Wall Street were triggering a certain amount of buyer’s remorse within the American Jewish community, which gave him 78% of its vote? Finally, taking off from my observation that many Jewish liberals like to call themselves independents, he wondered whether a fair number of the self-described independents who deserted Obama and voted for Scott Brown might actually have been Jewish liberals. If so, he concluded, Brown’s “victory could be even more indicative of an even bigger change in the political temper of the country than has so far been recognized.”
For this, Rush Limbaugh has been subjected to a vile attack by Abraham Foxman, the national director of the Anti-Defamation League. Of course, Mr. Foxman has a long history of seeing an anti-Semite under every conservative bed while blinding himself to the blatant fact that anti-Semitism has largely been banished from the Right in the past forty years, and that it has found a hospitable new home on the Left, especially where Israel is concerned. This makes Foxman a perfect embodiment of the phenomenon I analyze in "Why Are Jews Liberals?" Now Foxman has the chutzpah to denounce Rush Limbaugh as an anti-Semite and to demand an apology from him to boot. Well, if an apology is owed here, it is the national director of the Anti-Defamation League who should apologize for the defamatory accusation of anti-Semitism that he himself has hurled against so loyal a friend of Israel as Rush Limbaugh.

Rush Limbaugh agrees with Frederick Douglass
Liberals are fond of saying Rush Limbaugh is racist but so far all they can do is fabricate quotes in an effort to smear him. Rush Limbaugh is actually the champion of black people. He wants government off their backs. Rush is on a mission to destroy the statists who would have us believe that black people need the government or a white person to help them in order to suceed. Unlike Democrats Rush Limbaugh believes black people are capable of taking care of themselves. His philosophy regarding black people can be summed up in this quote from Frederick Douglass
Everybody has asked the question. . ."What shall we do with the Negro?" I have had but one answer from the beginning. Do nothing with us! Your doing with us has already played the mischief with us. Do nothing with us! If the apples will not remain on the tree of their own strength, if they are wormeaten at the core, if they are early ripe and disposed to fall, let them fall! I am not for tying or fastening them on the tree in any way, except by nature's plan, and if they will not stay there, let them fall. And if the Negro cannot stand on his own legs, let him fall also. All I ask is, give him a chance to stand on his own legs! Let him alone!
--Frederick Douglass
