I'm still looking for something that is "racially charged", let alone, anything that rises to the level of "racism" we see in Sharpton and rent-a-riot.

"We are being told that we have to hope [President Obama] succeeds, that we have to bend over, grab the ankles ... because his father was black." [1/21/09]

"I do believe" Obama is an "angry black guy." [7/27/09]

"Obama's entire economic program is reparations." [7/22/09]

Obama is "Halfrican-American." [7/24/07]

Or my personal favorite: the time Limbaugh invented a "racial component" to Iraq war vet Paul Hackett's decision to withdraw from a Democratic primary campaign for U.S. Senate in Ohio. Yep, after Hackett's departure from the race against then-Rep. Sherrod Brown, Rush said, "And don't forget, Sherrod Brown is black. There's a racial component here, too." In fact, Brown is white. [edit: I have no idea what this exchange was about, but if he made a mistake, that's not shocking. He has probably 10,000 or more hours of talking on the radio. A few mistakes will happen.]
