Rush Limbaugh takes a giant step toward racist bigotry by promoting an Al Sharpton talk radio program. Why? Because pimping for the really stupid "Reverend without Church" and launching him on a talk radio career literally assures everyone that this low grade political whoremonger will speak for Black America to white America. He will be quoted by every asshole (that means me and the rest of the Blogosphere) as an example of the successful Black leader; a sage. Sharpton is a living example of Black self loathing that continues to elect and promote raging incompetents, racists, and poverty rights hustlers. Should Blacks suddenly turn to the educated and successful among them they will lose their sugar tit of the Welfare State; their "it's whiteys fault" excuses for criminality and spousal abandonment; and their excremental Hip Hop culture that extolls rape, murder, and robbery. Sharpton will continue down the path of blaming Whitey for everything and empowering Republicans everywhere.
If Limbaugh really gave a dam about Blacks and their success he'd promote a radio show by someone like those listed in Heather MacDonald's column. But that would mean Blacks might actually contribute something relevant to the political dialogue and we don't want that, do we?
Thanx Rush, this will probably keep the GOP in power for four or so more years.
