I'd respect Rush and other lunatics so much more if they came out and said what really.rustles them about the president.
I'm curious why you don't think the stuff they complain about for 4 hours a day 5 days a week (or however long radio shows typically last, I really don't know) is actually rustling them.

Because even Rush can't just come out and say "I am uncomfortable having a black man in this position of authority." Not that I think that is really the root for all of them. Some of them, sure, but not all.

If a kid who looked like he could very well be related to me got shot, and the media was hyping it up, yeah man that would have an impact on me. That doesn't mean anything about any other situation, it has nothing to do with race really, it just inspires an emotional reaction in him. As it would in anyone.
That's nonsense. WHY would it evoke an emotional response? A guy who could be my twin once robbed a bank my mom worked at. It didn't evoke any response from me when i saw the photo other than 'huh cool ... uhhh I was in another city when that happened and I can prove it'. I didn't get upset that there was a manhunt for him. I didn't get upset at the bank because they wanted to put him in prison. I didn't get upset at the dude because he somehow betrayed me by breaking the law while looking like me. That shit would have been retarded and what you're talking about is retarded attention whore shit too.

I could buy it if you wanted to make the case that 0 knew he had a 17 yr old kid living in florida that he hadn't seen in a while, and he thought this might be him. But other than that ... no.

You don't think it's infinitely more likely that they are uncomfortable having a democrat in this position of authority? But hey, don't just use your gut to answer, see if you think of another democrat president who wasn't black. Did they hate on him the same way?

PS, just because bill called himself the first black president doesn't mean you get to treat him as a black president for the sake of this exercise.

Oh shit, is it disrespectful for me to shorten William's name to bill? You know how much I care about that touchy feely garbage.

Maybe Obongo should do a personalized response for every murder victim in his shitty country.

When it first happened it pretty much looked like that, but that was really just due to the lack of evidence available and the media portrayal/editing of what little was available.

So instead of siding with law enforcement's decision not to prosecute Obama decides "I need to get in on this action" and proceeds to say retarded shit.

Fuck Trayvon for making me agree with republicans

I doubt it's racial for Rush. It's more his target audience + democrat + liberal.

I can't believe that it's been almost a year since Trayvon was shot and we're still talking about it.

How does the right wing manage to get their stupid bullshit into widespread discussion so often. Why is anyone entertaining the idea that Obama might be a racist or simply stupid because he said his hypothetical son could look like Trayvon (a point that no one is even attempting to disagree with)? A fucking year ago.....

Powerful stupid.
