When it ALREADY IS this way; how or why is his commenting upon it being "BLAMED" upon him?
Let me give you another example: A teacher in a classroom teaching math -- suddenly injects a "newism" into her lecture as to how stupid the Bush Administration is for not doing the math correct in projecting what this war would cost. Student replies -- Projections are necessary and because we are at war, there are so many variables, and the constants are upon which the hard stats reside, Ergo, Bush is doing the right thing. Teacher then says: I don't appreciate you injecting politics into my math class.
Let me give you another -- Preferential Affirmative Action. In the early days of Prop 209 -- 209 people were massively accused of trying to politicize "affirmative action".
The very process of what became affirmative action -- the very deed of what is now preferential discrimination, had been politicized LONG before 209 arrived on the scene. It had become a political "football". But then, folks begin commenting upon it -- and so many people were upset that 209 was "politicizing" preferential affirmative action. When in fact, 209 not only was disagreeing with politicized affirmative action, it was daring to make it clear how off track of original intent it had become.How "political" it already was!
Rush called the kettle and the pot black, and he is not to be blamed for it, in my books. He addressed a political "hidden" assumption. Hidden only in that the "diversity/tolerance" crowds demand that what they believe, what they promote "politically" never be questioned, commented upon, or addressed. And nor do I think he in any way was casting aspersions upon McNabb -- Rush was addressing a "lowered standard" sportscasters are carrying (and we already know what those lowered standards do to everything it touches (education, for one)). And he called them on it.
