As I http://propagandafactory.org/2011/08/23/rush-limbaugh-on-race/">mention here, Rush Limbaugh's populist, race-baiting demagoguery is why I'm decidedly left of center. In fact, as Rush's forked tongue propels the Tea Party led GOP further and further off that cliff I see to my right, many people who know me swear I'm a bearded Marxist trying to outwit them by remaining clean shaven.

My short video can't begin to repair the harm this man has caused our nation but it's a start.

1. remember when he mocked the president of China?

What a low life. How does he have such mass appeal when having such a cheap brand of humor and communication value?

4. I actually...
... meant to include that clip but somehow it slipped through the cracks and my little video ended up concentrated on his African-American race-baiting. As another points out his propaganda on Native Americans may be his sickest of all. Rush is an equal opportunity hater.

2. Limbaugh on Native Americans
It is with some irony I note that the Lakota word for Whites is Wachicu, which means "fat taker." I wish Limbaugh would take his fat ass and move off the planet.

From Webpage: "Your Heroes Are Not Our Heroes." International Brotherhood Days http://www.brotherhooddays.com/
----------------------------------------clip--------------------------------------------------------------------------
RUSH LIMBAUGH: (Hosts the most popular radio talk show in America, also regarded as a world class gasbag, pill-popping blowhard, and shameless, self promoting, self absorbed, namedropping sycophant) -In my opinion-

"I don't give a hoot that gave some Indians a disease that they didn't have an immunity against." 17). (Quote from his best selling book, "The Way Things Ought To Be." pg. 45).

"There are more American Indians alive today than there were when Columbus arrived or at any other time in history. Does this sound like a record of genocide?" 17).(Quote from his best selling book, "I Told You So." pg. #68). Rush must be using the "new math" to arrive at this conclusion. Most experts today, feel that in the United States and Canada alone, there were in 1492, approximately 10 to 20 million Native Americans.1). By 1900 there were less than 250,000 Native people left alive, a decline of well over 98%. At the time the "all knowing" Rushkie wrote this book there were approximately 2,300,000 enrolled native people and an additional 1,000,000 other Indian people of various degrees of Native blood. Using a very, very, generous figure of 3,000,000 Native people, there were at the time of this quote at least 15,000,000 fewer Native people alive as compared to 1492, a decline of at least 83%.

"Columbus saved the Indians from themselves."17). (Quote from his radio show.) Left to themselves the Taino People, over a period of thousands of years, formed a peace loving, prosperous civilization that numbered in the millions. After 50 years of Spanish domination they were reduced in number to nearly zero. It is my hope that the United States or any other nation ever again has to face such a "savior."

Bruce Whelan, the Lakota leader of South Dakota's Shannon County Republican Party, took issue with Limbaugh's comments - "I am kinda wondering what history books Rush Limbaugh was reading from."

3. Limbaugh has only one use - which has not been met yet.
Limbaugh is worm food...or better yet...a bitter fatty treat for buzzards.
