This Is Rich: AZ Gov Brewer Accuses Pres Obama of Racism!
from the Limbaugh Show transcript....Please don't click on this link: Limbaugh's Site

BREWER: While the president is making wisecracks and playing racial politics, some groups have suggested that Arizona be punished for enforcing laws that our federal government has failed to enforce. That is misguided at best. Our purpose today is to help the rest of the nation understand the crisis which confronts our state. Our nation's government is broken. Our border is being erased, and the president apparently considers it a wonderful opportunity to divide people along racial lines for his personal political convenience. <...>

BREWER: It's fair to ask whether he intends to be the commander-in-chief or the comic-in-chief.

AUDIENCE: (chuckling)

BREWER: Since the president's joke was so inappropriate, I suppose if I wanted to join in the comedian game I could suggest that he not give up his day job.

AUDIENCE: (applause)

BREWER: Unfortunately, though, he isn't doing very well at that one, either. <etc>

5. That Brewer runs to Limbaugh, to defend Arizona's "papuhs pleeze" act,
shows rather clearly the political calculus behind the act: it is intended as red meat thrown to the rightwing Republican base

Limbaugh's listeners are 95% Caucasian, 79% over the age of 35, 75% male, 74% childless ...
