Rush limbaugh is a hypocrite, the stereotypical scared white male who views it as the end of the world if anyone who isn't white, male, or republican takes charge. He never notices what Republicans say or do wrong, only Democrats.
What is more racist to me than anything is George Bush was established to be an alcoholic C student with a DUI arrest who was such a screwup he couldn't even show up on time for national guard duty, and who seemed to gain the White house largely because of who his daddy was, and many of the people who ignored these things and found some justification, some deep down indecribable inherent 'goodness' that obviously just didn't show up in his past or in his speaches, that made them cast their ballots in that direction. These same people seem really really pissed off that Obama won.
They cast that idiot Pailin for vice president and there are 3 year old special ed students who probably have a better understanding of politics than she did. Id love to have seen a black female make it even that far just because she is female like Pailin did.
People asked me if I was excited about the first black president. I say yes, and no. When the one comes up who doesn't have to be twice as smart and twice as clean as any white dude that ever came before him just to stand a chance, THEN I'll get excited. When the black Dubya runs and people ignore is flaws the same way they ignored them in the white Dubya, THEN we've really come a long way.
Most people who feel one way or another about Obama just have a negative knee-jerk reaction to everybody feeling excited about the first this or the first that and probably don't even have a complete understanding of any policy he's ever spoken about or what his plan is. Not saying anybody who hates Obama is stupid, but there is alot of fearmongering started by people who hate on him just to hate on him.
