http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/seahawks/2010066304_nfl15.html Group seeking to buy Rams dumps Rush Conservative radio talk show host Rush Limbaugh has been dropped from a group seeking to buy the St. Louis Rams. By Seattle Times news services ST. LOUIS — Conservative radio talk-show host Rush Limbaugh has been dropped from a group seeking to buy the St. Louis Rams. Limbaugh was to be a limited partner in a bid led by St. Louis Blues chairman Dave Checketts, but Checketts said in a statement Wednesday that Limbaugh's participation had "become a complication and a distraction" in the group's pursuit of the Rams. Checketts said he will have no further comment on the bid process. Limbaugh said on his radio show he had been inundated with e-mails from listeners who supported him in the bid. "This is not about the NFL. It's not about the St. Louis Rams. It's not about me," Limbaugh said. "This is about the ongoing effort by the left in this country, wherever you find them, in the media, the Democrat Party, or wherever, to destroy conservatism, to prevent the mainstreaming of anyone who is prominent as a conservative. "Therefore, this is about the future of the United States of America and what kind of country we're going to have." Limbaugh's bid ran into opposition from within the image-conscious NFL when Colts owner Jim Irsay said he would vote against the radio personality. Commissioner Roger Goodell said Limbaugh's "divisive" comments would not be tolerated from any NFL insider. Before getting dropped, Limbaugh said he had no intention of backing out. "I'm not even thinking of caving," he said. "I am not a caver. Pioneers take the arrows. We are pioneers. It's a sad thing that our country, over 200 years old now, needs pioneers all over again, but we do." Comment: I guess Michael Vick can electrocute innocent dogs and get welcomed back into the NFL with open arms but a guy who expressed an opinion (and was fired for it and yes, it was stupid) can't engage in the purchase as a limited partner of an NFL team. This is PC liberal bullshit yet again. I've listened to this guy for over two decades and have never heard him utter a racist statement. His commentary about McNabb was stupid, he injected politics into sport and he paid a price for it but his comment was not racist. The other crap that has been printed attributing racist statements to the man are just that, crap. He is suing that black jackass from ESPN (Jason whatever) because he LIED in print and it was a total smear job and character assassination hit piece. I'm sick and tired of blacks like Jessah Ah Jackson getting away with racial slurs (as in New York City is "Hymie Town") and Al (not so) Sharpton accusing white cops of beating and raping a black girl (was a lie) while others are held to higher standards and stupid yet harmless comments are used to ruin a persons life or ambitions. Hell, Obama called his white grandmother a "typical white racist" and got away with it. Talk about double standards.

There's no such thing as "racism" it's a false concept. Like a smile on a dog. When a black or latino takes pride in his kind, it's wonderful. But when Rush Limbaugh does the same it's racism. Is that how it goes, Chuck? Did I pass the libtard test of social consciousness?

I listen to Rush Limbo when I get the chance...and know that most of his critics don't. They rely on one or two soundbites gleaned from 20 years worth of talking on air 3 hrs/day, 5 days/week to "prove" he's a racist. Calling somebody a racist is about as bad as it gets these days. But Limbo's remark that the NFL game he was watching, where fights between players after the whistle were rampant, was "like a meeting of the Crips and Bloods without the weapons" wasn't racist. It was a realistic analogy founded on fact. Two thirds of the NFL is black and quite a few of them are felons with criminal records... .

I don't know how many times I listened to Limbaugh talk about something and read some critique of him and wondered if we listened to the same person...

Chuck wrote: haha..Limbaugh the racist blowhard wants to be a minority owner... Ok jackass, PROVE he's a racist! Post ONE comment that is racist. I won't hold my breath because I've listened to him for over 20 years and he's never said a racist comment you twit. Apparently those on the Left that are racists and say racist things are ok by you but a guy who doesn't isn't ok with you because you disagree with his politics. Typical jackass left-wing moron who never listens to the guys show but knows that he's a racist and can't back it up a wit. You're a pinhead.

His comment about McNabb (although I'd have not gone there) was pretty much spot on as well. The sports media rant about the greatness of the guy as if he were the 2nd coming of Joe Montana. Hell, he couldn't even carry Joe's jockstrap and he hasn't won ANYTHING. But it's like the Nobel and Obama. Reward for NON-ACCOMPLISHMENT and the left can't handle it when someone calls them on it. Take this Forum as a small example of this "racism" deal/thingy. We've got the few Libs here calling blacks the "N" word, yet none of the Conservatives. I work with a black guy and I give him a ride to work and back every day, he's a good man. We have 3 or 4 Libs there and (assuming I thought like them) have referred to this guy as a N*****. Imagine that? It must be a vernacular "staple" of Liberals.

The anwser would be neither. One is white, one is black and the latter gets praised as if he was something special.

I got a couple, albeit from non-professional leagues, but against my peers, I beat them soundly. McNabb is a decent QB, but he's no Montana or Marino, Staubach, Young, or Starr, etc...et al. How come they don't talk about Doug Williams? He was a terrific QB of African-American heritage and nobody ever talks about him. WTF? OVER?!? (NTAO)

He lost to the AZ Cardinals last year? They effing suck dude! Kyle Orton went from a few years with the Bears (in mediocrity) to a Denver team that is now what? 5-0? Does THAT make Orton a great QB? If you say yes, then you don't know squat about football. Speaking of which, if you knew so much, why no involvement with our Veterans Memorial Football Fantasy League where you could "teach" us (and me) a "few" things. Trust me, I know a good QB from a GREAT QB, as I've played the game and coached the game and McNabb is in the "good" category". When he wins a Super Bowl, then I'll retract my viewpoint, until then, he's just another top tier dude without Championship portfolio.

Rush Limbaugh was viciously smeared by black racists who (OMG!) are Liberals who are Obamanites. Oh boy, go figure? More on Rush : http://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2009/10/the_search_for_the_wikipedia_l.html October 15, 2009 The Search for the Wikipedia Libelist Ralph Alter Thanks to an intrepid blogger with the tag Trapdoc posting a letter to Mark Steyn, the search for the Wikipedia Libelist responsible for damaging posts to the Rush Limbaugh account has been narrowed to the IP address of a New York City law firm: The quotes were added by a user with the IP address of 69.64.213.146. This address has been used mostly to make changes to the article about Rush, but also Karl Rove, Sean Hannity,.. James Dobson and Sara Palin from 2005 until earlier this year. While others have noted this in various forums, no one seems to have made the connection that this IP address is used as a gateway by the law firm Patterson Belknap Webb & Tyler LLP (see here for example) that all users from that IP address come from the pbwt.com domain.)" The firm provides a wide array of legal services with a broad spectrum of politically correct causes served: (read ALL Liberal). It is one of the first major firms in New York City to elect a woman as managing partner. In addition to its Diversity Committee, a group of Patterson Belknap attorneys formed PAC -- Patterson Attorneys of Color -- to assist with the enhancement of workplace diversity and the recruitment, retention and promotion of attorneys of color. Another group, Out at Patterson, focuses on issues relevant to the firm's lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender individuals, and Women Lawyers at Patterson (WLAP) focuses on women's issues." Considering Rush's militant political incorrectness, there may be a large number of potentially culpable attorneys and/or staffers to choose from. However, a forensic data retrieval technician should surely be able to narrow the focus and identify the likely poster. Perhaps Rush can enlist the aid of PBWT alumni, Rudy Giuliani, Manhattan District Attorney Robert Morgenthau or firm partner, Edward F. Cox, (son-in-law of former President, Richard M. Nixon) in his search for justice. There is no question that Mr. Limbaugh has been damaged by the salacious quotes added to his Wikipedia profile and their dissemination in the PC-stream media. Hope this helps, Rush. You know they say the only cure for a lawyer is another lawyer..... Comment: Total lying smear campaign by the usual suspects of the LEFT who preach "tolerance" and "getting along" while they make up lie after lie after lie to smear Conservatives. As the Liberal jackass Jason "whatever his black ass name is" from ESPN said (and I paraphrase) "even if it's not the truth, even if he didn't say those things, we ALL know he thinks those things". Really? Wow! He can read Limbaugh's mind, as well as whom else? Shades of the farce put on by Dan Blather which got his ass tossed off the air. Libs are disgusting liars.
