Rush Limbaugh on George Steinbrenner: 'Cracker' Made Black Athletes Millionaires

[Blue_Tires]

As New Yorkers mourn the loss of Yankee icon George Steinbrenner, right-wing radio host Rush Limbaugh offered his own inflammatory version of a eulogy.

"That cracker made a lot of African American millionaires," Limbaugh bellowed on his morning show Tuesday. "And at the same time he fired a bunch of white guys."

In the clip, posted by Media Matters for America, Limbaugh offers his rambling thoughts on the passing of the New York legend, saying "What a man he was. What a feature and a character he was in major league baseball."

Limbaugh's rant might be the pundit's colorful way of saying goodbye to New York. He just sold his Upper East Side condo for a cool $11.5 million.
