Racist Rush Limbaugh is at it again. I don't mind it so much except when he says things that are so obviously false that somebody should call him on it. And I know the Ditto heads have been sniffing too much of that Ditto toner (this is the real deal, not some wimpy Xerox or Canon toner. Ditto toner is the Nyquil of toner highs) to question their leader. So, let's summarize some of his positions to see where he's gone wrong.

1. Donavan McNabb is only celebrated because he is black. O.K., he never won a superbowl. So, he and Dan Marino are schmucks. I happen to think that both are pretty good quarterbacks, but Rush's position is defensible. Not defensible enough to keep his job at ESPN, but defensible enough for what passes for journalism on his show.

2. Barack Obama would not be President if he weren't black. I actually buy into this one. But I would add that he would also not be President if he weren't half white. As Goldilocks would say, "he's just right."

3. Oprah Winfrey would not be rich and famous if she weren't black. Hmmmm, wasn't Phil Donahue white? I never watched Phil and I never watch Oprah, but just about every woman I know does. I don't see where either has any talent, unless compared to a numb nut like Rush Limbaugh.

4. Blacks have an easier time making it in America than do other races. That must be why they control Wall Street and the Oil Industry. In politics, there is one black senator who will not be a senator after November. This comment by Rush is simply KKK nutjobism.

Rush is throwing red meat to the critters who listen to his radio show. It would be funny if he could ever get his facts straight.
