Limbaugh: We need segregated buses
Limbaugh: We need segregated buses


By Raw Story

Published: September 17, 2009
Updated -1443 second ago

In a remark extraordinary even by the standards of conservative talk show host Rush Limbaugh, the right-wing radio heavyweight declared on his program Wednesday that the United States needed to return to racially segregated buses.

Referring to an incident in which a white student was beaten by black students on a bus, Limbaugh said: “I think the guy’s wrong. I think not only it was racism, it was justifiable racism. I mean, that’s the lesson we’re being taught here today. Kid shouldn’t have been on the bus anyway. We need segregated buses — it was invading space and stuff. This is Obama’s America.”

A full transcript of Limbaugh’s comments on his radio show is available at

1. Everybody knew pigboy was a racist
I'm glad he's decided to let his true nature shine through.

2. This assclown is so desperate for attention lately.
BecKKK and his ilk are eating his lunch and he knows it.

14. Meh. I don't remember too many complaints from too many people
when dim son was in office. Then again, his skin was the right color, even if his brain seemed disengaged.

He 'created' a war, and that's A-OK? :puke:

It is. Period.

4. He needs to be removed from the airwaves. Martial law?? He incites and
flamebaits and pushes racism. It's time for him to go and get him off the airwaves to our military. He's scum.

7. Amazing his sponsors condone such incindiery(?) statements
Guess they must be racist also.
Perhaps the public would like to know that.

9. just a case of oxyboy trying to keep up with the furious pace being set by beck...
Edited on Thu Sep-17-09 08:35 AM by islandmkl
beck is making rushbo have to scramble to stretch his schtick to the regions being mined by the crying freak...

i truly believe rush knows in his heart that a voice over the airwaves cannot compete with the total visual/audio freakout that beck is...

there is no bottom where these cretins dwell, and beck has rush shoveling at that furious pace...to no apparent avail

10. Oh, just make 'em sit in the back
But let's spend another couple of days watching the network chuckleheads puzzle over what in the world Jimmy Carter could have possibly meant when he was talking about racism. Why, some of Rush's best friends are . . .

15. I can't believe I used to listen to this guy
This was back in 1994. He started changing the next year, though, getting a bit testy, short-fused, and even a little smug. That's when I bailed on him - especially after taking a closer look at some of his writings.

18. As Mike Malloy has been saying, they're trying to foment a race war.
They really want to gin up so much hatred it'll create a state of fear and violence in the country. They hope to pin the blame on President Obama and therefore end his reelection possibility. They'll then paint themselves as saviors bringing back "law and order". This is all very calculated.

25. Maybe Beck & Limbaugh can propel each other into the abyss in
their headlong quest for the outrageous ratings booster.
