Joan Walsh has been accused of having a racial bias and has been called a racist before
Red State:

Limbaugh:

Don't believe everything you hear and/or read.

2. somebody on this site was actually quoting Limbaugh (!) as a kind of "proof text" about
....the "untrustability" of liberals. No sense -- no irony -- of whether the source itself could be trusted, however...

10. Yup. They used the "ticking clock/two times a day" rationale for the post
...though what was most telling was how Limbaugh's observation fit their own biases against liberals/"the left."

5. why would you read or believe what those 2 clowns say?
of course they are going to pick up that ball and run with it. You really really believe they are offended by racism? Limbaugh is a shitbag, we all know that, how can I believe him if he tells me the sky is blue. And the red state guy is a hatchling of CNNs, he's an asshole too, with slightly better manners than Limbaugh.

maybe I don't get your point, because this is exactly how these people use stuff to their advantage.

6. Is
"Joan Walsh has been accused of having a racial bias and has been called a racist before"

...it supposed to be shocking that Limbaugh and the RW called someone a racist?

When you say she "has been called a racist before," who is calling her a racist now?

19. You've spent half of your 455 posts on this issue
Did Melissa Harris Perry strike a nerve? It sure as hell looks as though she did with you.

14. Are you elevating Ms. Walsh by associating Ms. Harris-Perry with the likes of
Erick Erickson and Rush Limbaugh?

"Look who else is calling Joan Walsh racist - and what do we think of THEM?"

Never mind the fact that the basis for their claims is NOTHING like what Ms. Harris-Perry is conveying.

But I'm sure Ms. Walsh is grateful for your chivalry on her behalf.

15. What was Harris saying about Joan Walsh?
And I doubt Joan Walsh could give two hoots about my posts on DU.

17. There's a fallacy in your argument, and that is that MHP neither insinuated nor explicitly
called Joan Walsh a racist.

What was your motivation for starting this thread? Was it to create discord? Or, was it to encourage unity? If it was the former, then shame on you. If it's the latter, then you should be clear on the intent.
