Racism loud and clear from the voice of the Right


As if we needed further evidence that Rush Limbaugh is pure evil, we have this from dailykos:

"Mr. Limbaugh wasted no time trying to turn the horrific tragedy in Haiti into a sleazy partisan attack on the very people working around the clock to save as many lives as possible:


[Paraphrased via Media Matters] I want you to remember, it took [Obama] three days -- three days! -- to respond to the Christmas Day fruit of ka-boom bomber ... He comes out here in less than 24 hours to speak about Haiti ... [later in same program] ... they'll use this to burnish ahhh their, ahhh shall we say, ahhh credibility with the black community, both the light skinned and, ahhh, hmmm ... dark skinned black community ...

Wow. At this very moment the streets of Haiti's capital are still littered with bodies of the dead and dying. Thousands of men, women, and children -- including an unknown number of Americans -- are buried alive under tons of rubble, many no doubt crying out in agony for help that will come too late. And this sick twisted racist monster doesn't even have the decency to wait for them to finish dying before equating their death and suffering to an incident where no one got a scratch except the bad guy.

Given this week's earlier antics, you'd think that might result in bipartisan demands for a deep, sincere apology to the friends and family of the missing. But don't hold your breath."


Unbelievable.  Where are the Morality Police?
