		<description>You bring up an excellent point, Chermone. The author of that statement from The ConservativeXpress blog was writing in inaccurate, broad generalities, and should have narrowed it down. Instead of painting a broad picture using just the term &quot;blacks,&quot; which makes it sound like all blacks are using racial slurs and slander (which they are not doing), it would have been more accurate for him or her to have qualified it, should have instead said &quot;some blacks&quot; or &quot;a number of blacks&quot; and not left it as just &quot;blacks.&quot;

You are absolutely correct - not all blacks have done this, in fact, I&#039;d say not a majority have done so, and there are many whites (you correctly cited Jimmy Carter) who have been just as guilty of wildly throwing around racial slurs and slander. However, high-profile black leaders, Rev. Al Sharpton and Rev. Jesse Jackson to name but two, have been actively fanning the fires, not just on this Rush Limbaugh incident, but a number of other ones. From their rhetoric, a number of African-Americans are being convinced/influenced that it is racism to not agree with our president or racism if a person of color is disagreed with or criticized. But by all means, this is NOT true of all blacks. Let me point out that I never said this. It is from a quote from another source, and I&#039;d like to give the author the benefit of the doubt here, since I&#039;ve read other postings at that site and have no reason to think this author is a racist. It looks more like an accidental omission rather than one of hostile, ignorant bigotry.

Thank you for your input.</description>

		<description>While I agree with pretty much everything that was said, there was one portion that bothered me.

 -Our “post-racial” America has become a hotbed of unfounded racial slurs and slander by Blacks.-

This is where I will draw a line with you.  Not every black person is touting unfounded racial slurs and it bothers me that you would allow that statement on a pretty decent site.  I&#039;m sorry, maybe that&#039;s not what you intended to portray, but that&#039;s how it came across- at least to me.  Again, while I agree with everything else said (especially about Ms. Jackson being wrong in her actions against Rush), there have been plenty of white people throwing out the race card (former Pres. Carter to be the latest) as well.  I just hope you would take my constructive criticism to heart. Yes, there will be blacks- and whites- that disagree with our conservative way of life. However, there are just as many blacks, whites, latinos, asians and others who agree with what we believe.  We must not give sure footing to the opposition to let them stand upon.

		<description>Admin, nothing against Rush, my comment concerned the politicians that take us for fools, and consistently demean the intelligence of the American People in general.

I didn&#039;t mean to jump the thread.</description>

		<description>Yes, I totally agree - but since this post was about the liberals&#039; vicious smear job on Rush Limbaugh&#039;s bid for the NFL, including Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee&#039;s appalling, demonizing plea to the NFL to ban conservative Limbaugh from pursuing the purchase of the St. Louis Rams, I focused just on that in my reply comment.

The statist garbage is flying in all directions from the windows from so many of these liberal weasels, it&#039;s too much to cover in each post without writing a bloody novel (LOL). So, I must focus on one issue, comment, move to another, comment, etc. Thank goodness I&#039;m pretty good at multi-tasking. I think some conservative bloggers are starting to burn out from trying to keep up with all that is going on in Washington, DC these days. Some days, I know how they feel, it&#039;s so overwhelming.

Allowing elected members of our Congress, servants of the people,  to willfully attack and malign private citizens from the House floor is irresponsible and is soft tyranny, which leads to hard tyranny. Freedoms taken away rarely are returned. We can&#039;t let Queen Sheila&#039;s attacks become acceptable, because otherwise, we will become Venezuela or Cuba with dictators and no Constitution to protect our inherent rights. Rush Limbaugh has been denounced by a member of Congress based soley on his conservative politics, statist lies, and rumors. That&#039;s how gradualism starts.

Yes, Rangel, Dodd, Frank, Pelosi, and so many others must be held accountable for their despicable actions. Voting them out and keeping an eye on the others (including most Republicans, who are not all angels, either) is imperative.</description>

		<description>Admin,....
Rush Limbaugh ?
Charlie Rangel, Chris Dodd, Brarney Franks,... hell they&#039;re all crooks.
The cap and tax bill that they will run down our throats stands to make Nan Pelosi milions of dollars, along with Al (gore the American people) Gore.
And who knows who else !

Obama is obviously a charlatan and preying on the astounding ignorance of an increasingly ignorant populace due to the fact of socialistic tendencies in our public schools, that we are MANDATED TO PAY FOR !

despicable !</description>

		<description>Excellent points made here, AFVET. Thanks for your intelligent input to this growing problem in our government. 

This shameful woman is but one small portion of the pompous audacity, bigotry, intolerance, and totalitarian/socialist mentality that is coming forth from so many elected Democrat representatives. 

I doubt (at least, I hope not) that Queen Sheila speaks for most of the people in Texas... I have always found Texans to be among the most level-headed, intelligent, patriotic people I&#039;ve ever met. This smear job on Rush Limbaugh is detestable... no evidence, no proof, just a bunch of concocted garbage floating around.</description>

		<description>Isn&#039;t desperation a remarkably revealing thing!
I think our &quot;representatives&quot; know their time is spent.

Information is a powerful weapon, and that is why they hate Rush, and his friends, and that is why they are going to attempt to shut down the conservative internet, radio, and TV.

The ancients tried to build towers to the sky to raise the elites above the &quot;common people&quot;.
The elites in Washington contend that they can do that to us, the American People.

In their arrogance (the elites) have no concept of the intelligence of the people that will vote in the next election.

Their efforts to dumb us down, and withhold information from us, consistently, will be their downfall.

Stand up America, the 1st Amendment is in effect as we speak !!!</description>
