Hannity Show: Racial Buffoonery, Rush Limbaugh, & NFL Politics (video)
Posted By Vicki McClure Davidson on October 16, 2009
Radio talk show host Rush Limbaugh, upholder of the US Constitution, personal freedom, and capitalism... withdrawn from NFL bid because of media lies and his conservative politics
Outstanding, lively, thought-provoking discussions in these videos about Rush Limbaugh being denied ownership of the NFL St. Louis Rams on Sean Hannity’s TV talk show and with Bill O’Reilly.
In the first video, Stephen A. Smith, Michael Myers, and Sean Hannity have an intelligent debate on what is going on in America with race issues, Rush Limbaugh’s controversial bid for part ownership of an NFL team, and the sensitive, hypocritical nature of NFL politics.

Interesting observation posted on NRO:
…The media was fact checking the SNL Obama skit while preparing the stories on Rush. CNN is literally more interested in “disproving” satire about Obama than bothering to confirm bizarre and scandalous things said by Rush. I am literally amazed.

It seems to me that all the negative vibes this blowhard (Rush Hudson Limbaugh A.KA. Jeff Christie) has been spewing over these many years has come back to blow back on his face (A classic “Blow Back”). He always tries to give off the airs that he can have anything he wants but as we all witness those with more money and more influence tossed him aside like sack of potatoes and the ultimate insult was that it was done in public (money don’t buy you everything butterball).
Now of course he blames everyone else (Michael J. Fox, Perez Hilton, Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson, Obama, Oprah Winfrey, Sonia Sotomayor, Hillary Clinton, Olympia Snowe, ESPN, NFL, the media, basically people of color, the handicapped, women and gays) when of course all you have to do is listen to his show and plainly hear his daily prejudices filled sermons. So NFL, I salute you decision, job well done. And to the whaling cry baby perched on his self made pedestal, quit your whining it was your own fault. Don’t we all feel better?
To Paul – You lying hypocrite.
First of all, you’ve not listened to his show. Maybe a doctored sound bite here or there put out by the MSM, but you have NOT listened to him, especially this week in regards to what happened with the attacks from Sharpton and Jackson concerning the NFL (it was all over the news, so yes, I do blame them as race-baiting instigators for spreading rumors of stuff he’s saidthat no one can cite a source to – make up crap like all leftwingers do). Rush blames Perez Hilton for this NFL embarrassment? Your “People of color” is racist, something Rush has not done – he just doesn’t give anyone a free pass, even if they are of African descent. Your lying hyperbole is ignorant, racist, and totally fabricated. Yes, he rants, but NEVER does he spew the vile garbage that MSNBC Keith Olbermann does. Rush has never attacked anyone for their race or gender, only for their actions, their lack of performance, and their character. Prove your lies… oh, wait, you can’t. He calls conservatives on the carpet as well as liberals… something I’ve NEVER seen or heard a left-wing commentator do.
Here is a portion of Diane West’s take on that nutjob hater Olbermann. She expresses the left-wing extremists’ hypocrisy and Olbermann’s hatemongering much better than I can:
Before I get to the chilling implications for free conservative speech underscored by the vicious, public campaign to blackball Rush Limbaugh as a potential owner of an NFL team, I want to provide a little context about the pre-existing NFL comfort zone of expression.
I will start with two words: Keith Olbermann. In addition to his nightly gig on MSNBC — a numbing blend of Leftist politics and something approaching Tourette’s syndrome — Olbermann is a co-host of NBC’s “Football Night in America,” the pre-game show that leads into “Sunday Night Football.” Naturally, that would be Sunday night NFL football.
This job, now into its third season, makes Olbermann not a team owner, of course, but certainly a public face of the NFL. And a public face of the NFL with many filthy things coming out of it. These include, just sampling from recent days, his pronouncement that Limbaugh claiming his own success paved the way for Glenn Beck is “is like congratulating yourself for spreading syphilis.” We could slap a headline on that — “NFL talker compares star radio and TV conservatives with venereal disease” — except that trash talk against conservatives doesn’t generate mainstream outrage.
Take Olbermann’s noxious attack this week on Michelle Malkin for what he characterized as her “total mindless, morally bankrupt, knee-jerk, fascistic hatred without which Michelle Malkin would just be a big mashed-up bag of meat with lipstick on it.”
Get that? Olbermann calls an accomplished and best-selling conservative author, commentator, blogger, wife and mother (who also happens to be beautiful) a “big mashed-up bag of meat with lipstick,” but such dehumanizing venom doesn’t count as controversial, or even lightly strain his NBC-NFL connection. Why, at this rate, he could end up on a box of Wheaties. His comments certainly don’t rate as “divisive” or “inappropriate” – two of the coded charges leveled at Rush Limbaugh’s “public remarks” by NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell and Indianapolis Colts owner Jim Irsay that got Limbaugh’s blackball rolling in the first place.
He has spent years unfairly labeling others, now his own judgement day came.
Montana, please give a few examples of who he has unfairly labeled and what those “labels” were.
Is freedom of speech only for liberals, or should anyone who has unlabeled someone unfavorably be punished? For instance, did you think Janeane Garofalo’s nasty labeling of conservatives all being racists is “fair” or that they are all “teabaggers” (which is a sexually implicit slur)? She has yet to explain how black or Hispanic or Asian conservatives are racist. How about Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi saying that those who disagree with the government as being Nazis or terrorists, and has applauded dissension when Bush was in office but now attacks those who dissent? Even the president has unfairly labeled Americans who don’t agree with his socialist policies.
Tell all of us which labels of Rush’s were “unfair”… or rather, which were UNTRUE. The word “fair,” after all, is in the eye of the beholder. Then we can have an honest discussion. Otherwise, you’re just parroting the same old liberal rhetoric out there and attacking freedom of speech. What has caused the big hoopla are a few lies that left-wing bloggers put on their websites that Rush said racist things, which he did not do. You’re saying it’s OK for him to not be able to buy something with his own money because of proven lies told, a few football players whining, and Sharpton going on umpteen TV and radio shows saying he isn’t of the high standard of character demanded by the NFL. But Keith Olbermann is of that character? Fergie and J-Lo have more character so they can buy into a football team, but not Limbaugh?
We live in America, not the Soviet Union and not Cuba. What you’re suggesting is that if someone says something unfair, then he or she should not be able to pursue the American dream. Should be punished because someone’s political view (in this instance, conservative views) doesn’t match your own.
WOW !!!!!!!!
Admin you just ROCKED IT !!!
That last paragraph said it all.
The hypocrisy is rampant and we, the American People DO SEE IT AND WILL PUT IN THE FIX!
The earlier post with the picture of Sarah hanging in effigy should ignite the desire of the folks to realize the degree that the left has manipulated the media to ignore the conservative values that the majority of Americans espouse.
Life goes on, The Constitution guarantees the structure this Country was founded upon.
That is unless the American People allow someone else to take it from US.
AFVET, I believe this will indeed get uglier before it gets better. What has been happening to conservatives is despicable, and now, many are standing up against the double-standard assaults.
Montana ?
Great state.
Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson, how do you condone their comments over the years.
Both have been indicted many times and always escape serious prosecution.
How does that work ???
Where do they get their money to fly at will from coast to coast and sea to shining sea at will?
If they had been conservatives, they would not be seen on today’s media.
If you disagree with that, you are ignorant, not stupid, merely ignorant.
The NFL decides who becomes an owner not the other way around.
All this blowhard (Rush Hudson Limbaugh A.KA. Jeff Christie) has to offer is his money and his opinions, (which in my opinion are on the fringes of racism, one mans opinion). There are many more groups biding for the Rams, not just his group. Lets face it there are more men with money (Marshall Faulk) that will gladly fill the slot and the Rams will win or lose depending on how well they work as a team and not on whether or not Rush is an owner.
As for Vick, well he is a player (he has talent not like you, Rush or I, unless you are a NFL player?) and he served his time and the NFL decided we live in the land of second chances, so why not (I personally don’t like it but, oh well). Life has never been fair (NEWS FLASH!)
Now as to the “Free Speech” argument, I guess many of you like myself heard Rush on Thursday “Almost in tears”, priceless. But the last couple of days he now is in his normal ranting and will continue until someone surpasses him, “Free Speech” continues, so what is being stifled, it simply is not true, of course, you may not have a radio, so you might want to get one.
