10. I don't know
Edited on Fri Feb-20-09 08:50 PM by Royal Oak Rog
I tend to have a hard time relaxing when a cartoon portrays the the "First black President" as a dead chimpanzee and your hero can't see this as a racist act. Before your only defense is telling people to relax when acts like this can cause just irreparable harm to Obama, maybe you should think about what a cartoon like this is capable of? Sorry to come down on your "talk show hero" but his arguments are weak, and so are yours. I'll bet you'd call it a nuanced argument if Rush came up with it also? It's utterly preposterous, and dangerous.

On top of that his performance on the show couldn't of been weaker, if I had to make an analogy; he was a starting pitcher who got lit up for 10 runs in the first inning. The dream of the talk show's not over, but that inning didn't help him any.
