Rush Limbaugh has recently adopted the theme of referring to President Obama as a little child when attacking the administration's various political moves.
Today Limbaugh referred to President Obama as an "out of control little child who thinks that he is the Messiah" while criticizing the federal spending. Last week Limbaugh also referred to the President as a "little man-child" when government expansion. These are the two most recent references and Media Matters documents at least six other occasion including times when Limbaugh used the phrase "boy" in referencing an adult Obama.
Curiously these references have drawn little scrutiny from the press or Limbaugh's followers. It is possible that the media has simply grown to expect a hint of racism from Limbaugh and that they therefore view it as a "non-story." On the other hand Limbaugh is still perhaps the most influential right-wing commentator in the United States. Therefore if his statements truly do reflect a racist stereotype it seems the story should get more attention given Limbaugh's importance to the political debate.

Yawn. How many insults have been thrown in Rush’s direction? If the libs can’t take it they shouldn’t dish it out.
Well, then - MEdia Mattr is a unbiased source. NOT.
IF they are upset aobut Little Child they would freak out at names used here (blush) on FR>
Of course it’s racist , we all know white people never have a childhood.
Yes, but to appreciate the show one must get past Limbaugh's
constant references to how superior he is to us all.
He only means it half of the time.
How the hell is it racist to point out that the president acts like a spoiled, petulant, child? Oh wait, any criticism of the anointed zero is racist, I forgot. Poor little baby may get his feelings hurt.
In the eight years of the Bush administration he was called every name the Left and media could think of ...
Rush is just being a typical white person.
As far as I can tell Obama has gained more from racism and sexism than anyone in the history of this nation nation (if we are to assume that voting for someone specifically because of race and gender is still racist and sexist) and possibly in the history of the world. But then again who knows . . . perhaps the fine art of having an individual opinion has itself become racist and that is biasing my judgment.
I don't think so.
It is if a lib wants it to be.
Just like jello racist
horse racist
Lincoln Town car racist
chilli racist
pumpkin pie racist
A lib CANNOT be racist ... do I have to teach everybody that !!!
Of course it is.
Referring to Barry as anything other than “Your highness” or “your excellence” is racist.
Yawn is right, has Rush called nobama “boy”?
I think zero is actually more of a girly man. An indecisive wuss.
With regard to Obama, it is ok to be racist and impossible not to be.
I wonder how many other Barrys his groomers had on the vine in case he didn’t work out.
