No its not. It was a comment about a particular quarterback and about the media treatment. Sheesh. Liberals think a black can't be criticized for anything ..... unless he shows disloyalty to liberals. The bigotry here is Z's.

Rush accused the media of reverse racism. And he didn't even use "stupid archaic language." This is what Rush said: "I don't think he's been that good from the get-go. I think what we've had here is a little social concern in the NFL. I think the media has been very desirous that a black quarterback do well. They're interested in black coaches and black quarterbacks doing well. I think there's a little hope invested in McNabb and he got a lot of credit for the performance of his team that he really didn't deserve." It was a call to white viewers that "yet another" minority is getting something at the expense of whites. It's one of the heirs to the more open racism of Jim Crow, etc and very, very insidious. Do you not see that? He was also suggesting that a black can't be good as a quarterback....that its a white's only job. Blacks are only good on the line. That's been an unspoken belief in the NFL for a long time.
