MSNBC: Rush's racism 'had lethal consequences' (Video)
Times247 ^ | 3/23/12 | Scott Whitlock

MSNBC analyst and Democratic strategist Karen Finney disgustingly smeared Rush Limbaugh and several Republican presidential candidates on Thursday, charging that the racist hate of these conservatives had "lethal consequences" in the case of Trayvon Martin, an African American teen shot in Florida.

After decrying "bigotry and stereotypes tak[ing] over our better judgment," Finney sneeringly insisted that when "Rush Limbaugh calls a presidential candidate, Senator Barack Obama, a magic negro ... in the case of Trayvon, those festering stereotypes had lethal consequences."

Rush’s RACISM??

Rush has never to my knowledge demonstrated any racism ever. And I’ve been listening for 17 years.

So does this have anything to do with reports now out of Durham NC that a black male shot and killed at least 2 people at a tire store?

Does she realize that Zimmerman is hispanic? Or is she going by media reports that labeled him as white? My local Scripps Howard rag via Associated Press finally referred to him as a “light skinned hispanic”. WTF?

Rush's racism 'had lethal consequences'

Wow...so George Zimmerman killed Travon Martin, because Rush told him to kill him.

How many bottlecaps of 'Two If By Tea' do you have to send in to get Rush's secret decoder Ring?

I’d like to see Sharpton protest along with her seeing that the lyrics are his quotes.

That's the great thing about being a liberal - you don't need to think or be weighed down by facts or logic.

Oh yes and I’m so sure that ‘Jorge’ Zimmerman listens to Rush everyday.

Karen Finney's personal example of sluttiness led to the false charges by Crystal Gail Mangum against the Duke lacrosse players.

I read it on the Internet.

First I wrote it down, then I read it.

Liberals are obsessed with skin color.

I am still waiting for the coverage of the incident last week where three blacks allegedly set a young white boy on fire with gasoline, while using the “w” word...
That got choked off the media somehow.

It needs to be repeated until they get it.

Wasn’t referring to her credentials, her education, or her connections. She may have “book learning” as they say, but it didn’t seem to take. I was referring to the lumping of all conservative celebrities into one, convenient, prejudicial, bucket. Where’s her “tolerance?” Her understanding? Her open mind to which her education was to have exposed her?

BTW, I don’t give a hoot about what Politico has to say.

I almost expect a Tuscon Memorial type speech from The 0ne. “Together We Thrive” t-shirts and all.

If only the victim had been a white democrat - Palin could have been blamed again.
