On the front page of Rush’s website today, you’ll find the following link to a transcript from a call about Condi Rice: “Like Clarence Thomas, this self-made black leader must be destroyed…“
Apparently, this is the stunning next chapter in the Right’s desperate attempt at the Defense of Condi Rice. This bizarre strategy was first floated by Bob Novak last week when he sandbagged Rahm Emanuel on Crossfire:
EMANUEL: Say that again?
NOVAK: Do you believe that Dick Clarke has a problem with this African-American woman Condoleezza Rice?
Huh? Emanuel was as flummoxed as I was by the odd question.
I believe it was The Daily Show who later complimented Novak on having “played a race card from a deck which nobody even realized had one”.
A day or two later, like clockwork, one of Brad Blog’s favorite DittoHead commenters did his good soldier Right Wing Echo Chamber duty by repeating the suggestion: “I hope it doesn’t turn out to be a ‘high-tech lynching of an uppity black.'”
Mission accomplished.
Have we ever seen an Administration so freaked out by the merest suggestion that they – perhaps – haven’t done everything perfectly? It’s rather astounding to watch.
Are these guys that desperate to defend Bush at all costs that they’re already falling back to the Clarence Thomas “defense” here? Apparently so. Last week Rush answered a Liberal caller’s question about why — if the Bush Administration had such a wonderful Anti-Terrorism program from Day 1 — why it wasn’t actually ever implemented until after 9/11.
The answer was classic Rush. First, he informs us, it was because the Bushies were too busy at first because the Florida Election Debacle cost them so much valuable time that they had to work with Clinton Appointees like Richard Clarke (never mind that he was actually a Reagan appointee – DittoHeads aren’t big on Facts).
But then there’s this:
Well, okay. I guess that explains that.
I guess I’ll have to do some research on Condi to find out exactly where “she didn’t have to use affirmative action.” Perhaps she was admitted to Yale with a C+ grade average and received a Legacy admittance like Dubya. I’ll get back to you on that.
By the way, if you do click-through to the Rush transcript posted above, be sure to note the section where Rush has been going on and on, until the caller finally breaks in with:
RUSH: I’m not through with —
CALLER: Let me — you’re telling me —
RUSH: Sean. Sean. Sean. You are a caller, and you can’t cut me off. Now, if you keep on filibustering like this, I’ll just take you down so we can’t hear you.
I hate it when those callers filibuster poor Rush and never let him get in a word edgewise. Classic. And the DittoMonkeys eat it up.

I do not have cable. I do not watch The O’Reiley Factor, Robert Novak, etc. I actually thought of that on my own. I remember watching the Clarence Thomas hearings and what a joke it was. Before that, it was Bork.
We know the MO of the Liberal Democrats. We shall see what happens…
That’s interesting, Paul. Whacky that you just happen to have "thought of that on [your] own" in your comments here on March 30th – just one day after Rush said virtually the same thing on March 29th!
Crazy coinkidink, huh? Go figure.
By the way, since you listen to him every day, you know that Rush Limbaugh is on free broadcast radio. No Cable TV required.
Keep up the good work, soldier!
That’s why we like Rush. He says exactly what we are thinking and we wonder why no one else says them. The first time he called Bill and Hillary New Agers, Dottie and I busted out laughing because Rush was exactly right. No one else had said it.
"He says exactly what we are thinking"
Are you thinking, "Man, what I wouldn’t do to score another fix…I’ll suck a d*** if I have to Just hit me up with another fix doc"?
There’s another example of profanity by a leftist that one will find throughout these barely read blogs. We are impressed!
You seem to have a terribly difficult time with Free Speech, don’t ya Paul? Send some money to Michael Powell, he’s looking out for ya!
"Look out! Helter skelter! I’m coming down fast but I’m miles above you!"
I’d like to see arguments/rhetoric without the vulgarity yes, which is what you get with uneducated folks.
Accurate arguments with vulgarity mixed in is quite effective.
I can sprinkle in the obscenities when I choose. That’s what makes language so wonderful. Some of our greatest writers were profane. What Candyland world do you come from?
Hell, ask "Major League Asshole" Adam Clymer, what the purest of the pure GWB thinks of him
I guess getting an English degree at the second most conservative school in America makes me an uneducated liberal.
Hi Brad,
Dittoheads are a weird bunch for sure, a very hateful group who can’ t think for themselves, the very name DITTOHEAD says it all. I for one can’t think of one single person I agree with 100% But DITTOHEADS CAN! Theres something wrong with that, kind of like Hitler yes? Anyway check this page out;
Rush Limbaugh is a ….
It pokes fun at this jerk, but at least something good should come out his pathetic existance, I honestly believe that his trash talk is very harmful to our society, but what can we do?, to censor him would go against “Freedom of Speach”, as the old saying goes, “I do not agree with what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it”, I believe that, even it it means defending the rights of a total piece of garbage like Rush Limbaugh!
