Butt?
@IVE GOTTA PACKAGE 4U I have learned from you on short responses, I just typically don't exhibit it. Is this good for an attaboy?

AND THAT’S THE BOTTOM LINE
Rush was a propaganda machine. He preyed on republicans, pandered, told them exactly what they wanted to hear.
He wouldn’t have lost an ounce of sleep if you passed before him. Why the sensitivity?

Never a fan, didn't realize how effeminate he looked.

Rush was successful because he told the truth. Exposed Democrat lies. Dems had to be a lot more careful in what they said and did because he brought attention to it. And they hated him for it. I remember him showing Clinton saying one thing to a crowd then the next day saying the polar opposite to another crowd. There will never be another as politically astute or as enjoyable to listen to. R.I.P. Rush and God Bless. That he inspired such vitriol in this little corner of the internet shows just how effective and influential he was.

I love how in your worldview a racist that plays Barack the magic negro is someone to be proud of. The fact that people hate a racist piece of human garbage isn’t something to admire.
The fact that you can't handle satire demonstrates how racist you are. We need people like Rush pointing out your facist, racist buffoonery.

As long as he made black people upset he was ok by you. What a sad shell of a party Republicans have become under the influence of Rush.

He criticized Saint Barack. Oh No!
It isn't as if he said anything bad about President Trump.

Interesting you pick out that piece of satire but ignore the source. It's making fun of liberal voters thinking he will change the world as by magic. History shows he failed to bring any of us closer.

Actually the roots are here
Obama the ‘Magic Negro’
By DAVID EHRENSTEINMARCH 19, 2007 12 AM PT
L.A.-BASED DAVID EHRENSTEIN WRITES ABOUT HOLLYWOOD AND POLITICS.
AS EVERY CARBON-BASED life form on this planet surely knows, Barack Obama, the junior Democratic senator from Illinois, is running for president. Since making his announcement, there has been no end of commentary about him in all quarters — musing over his charisma and the prospect he offers of being the first African American to be elected to the White House.
But it’s clear that Obama also is running for an equally important unelected office, in the province of the popular imagination — the “Magic Negro.”
Obama the 'Magic Negro'
The Illinois senator lends himself to white America's idealized, less-than-real black man.

And, from Larry Elder, a commentary addressing the lefts conniption fit. @It will be fine included.

Larry Elder, from article:
"This is how the whole thing started.
David Ehrenstein, a writer who happens to be black and liberal, wrote an opinion piece in March 2007 in the Los Angeles Times called "Obama the 'Magic Negro.'"
He argued that whites, according to sociologists, stereotype blacks as "dangerous." But whites consider Obama accessible, likeable and "benign." This, according to Ehrenstein, explains Obama's "crossover" appeal.
The article insults a) Obama, by virtually ignoring his effectiveness as a candidate, b) whites, by accusing them of voting for Obama merely to assuage their own guilt, and c) Sidney Poitier, the brilliant, groundbreaking actor, for ascribing his success to whites who find him safe and non-threatening.
The article produced virtually no outcry."
Conservative talk show host Rush Limbaugh then aired a song parody --set to the music of "Puff the Magic Dragon" -- called "Barack the Magic Negro." Referring to the L.A. Times article, an Al Sharpton-like "singer" called Obama inauthentically black. Why, complained the singer, should white folks vote for Obama rather than a true black man "from the hood" like -- me.

What else would like to talk about. The “No, sometimes means yes.” When talking about sexual consent? Or football games are the same as gang fights because the players are black.
Rush was a piece of trash that you like because he upset people. That’s the goal of all right wing media and thought, piss off people that believe in equality.
As long as he made liberals upset, no matter the color, that was fine with me. He exposed the corrupt, money making machine the Democrats are. How they used the poor, especially poor minorities, to enrich themselves. Building a solid economy is hard. What Republicans are about. Dems prey on people's fear to push wealth redistribution instead of hard work. Plenty of minorities have realized the Republican message, what Rush pushed, is what will ultimately make them prosper. And those numbers are growing. Exactly why Trump was such a threat to the Democratic establishment and their RINO buddies.
