If Rush uttered those words, which are dispicable, Wikepedia and Maddow would not be the first or only broadcasts of the non-quote.

Can you imagine how many urinalists would have blogged, posted, quoted, re-quoted, printed, re-printed, interviewed with the obligatory concerned tilted head on PBS and bumper stickered this 'alleged" quote. 

Rachel Madcow disease....what'dja expect, legitimate commentary?

There's no way Rush would have made a comment like that.  For one thing, by 1998 he was very popular and such a quote would have been everywhere.   Secondly, he has always spoken pretty highly of MLK.  More complimentary than I would be. 

It's just another example of the load of crap that MSNBC throws out there on a daily basis.  Lies, exaggeration and fabrication, nothing more.

Because Limbaugh knew that he was the target of the liberals since the inception of his radio program, he was careful to record each program and have a written transcript of the same.  So, for anyone that wants to really quote him, all they have to do is ask his program director. 

To those that want to make shit up, I dare them to pinpoint the day that he uttered any such thing as this quote.  Limbaugh's recordings and transcripts of his program will show differently.  

It seems that Maddow's "show" must be failing as she is attempting to revive it with BS about Limbaugh.  That seems to be the way of most of the liberals in her line of work lately.  

Limbaugh, on his radio program, recently challenged liberals to NOT say his name or talk about him in any way for 30 days.  He challenged them that they couldn't do it.  It appears that he is right.  

Frankly, I have listened to Limbaugh for years as a 24/7 subscriber and have never heard him say anything but supportive things about African-Americans. Two of his substitutes on his radio program are two conservative black men - Walter Williams and Thomas Sowell. They do an excellent job, by the way.

If you want to read about what a black man thinks about Sotomayor, read Sowell's three part piece on the subject here: http://www.jewishworldreview.com/cols/sowell1.asp. 

Can any Limbaugh listeners from 1998 recall any sentiment of the sort being voiced?  It's curious that the supposed Wiki edit was in 2005, because in 2002 Rush did make a big deal out of the most tragic typo ever documented: Lauderhill, Florida's effort to honor James Earl Jones for coming to speak on MLK Day, for which the honorary plaque they gave him said "Ray" instead of "Jones" -- in effect thanking King's assassin instead of the great actor.  [See: http://www.snopes.co... ]

While I recall Limbaugh making a big deal of them thanking James Earl Ray, I'm not sure I've ever heard the name mentioned at any other time on Rush's show.

No matter, though -- Maddow's a lying sow who's happy to slander political opponents whenever the opportunity arises.

Maddow made the claim on national TV. 

Zero evidence Limbaugh ever said it.

What's NBC's defense going to be?  "Oh, she read it on some website wih user-generated content."???

Limbaugh should sue them for $100 mil, at least.

..that if Rush had actually said this he would've been banished from radio forever.

What a maroon Mad Cow is.

Recall a few weeks back when Rush challenged PMSNBC to not use his name or make reference to him for a whole month? Of course they backed down. He should have sweetened the challenge, and offered up few Million to the charity of PMSNBC's choice if they could do it.  Then, everyone could have legitimately lampooned them . . . not just us clear thinkers.

Rush doesn't have enough money to buy this sort of advertising.  Ever since the election he has been getting free publicity from the SCM, (previously the MSM...hehe).  His viewership and ratings have gone through the roof. 

"I've sentenced boys younger then you to the gas chamber.  Didn't want to do it, but I felt I owed it to them."  Judge Smails 

And therein lies a huge problem in the beloved media.  She doesn't care that the quote is false, she just wants to put it out there.  And once she does, at least 90% of her audience, 90 of the 100 people, will not look it up to find out, but will take what she has said and that's now what they think to be true.

Anyone who thinks the media being biased is no big deal, misunderstands freedom of the press completely, and misunderstands the size of the deal that it is.  Remember, the media is the main reason for the race-baiting, America-sucks-thinking, class warfare, nation bankrupting president that we have.

Looks to me like this is a desperate attempt by Maddow to get the attention of Rush Limbaugh for herself and her silly MSNBC program. Rush won't bite, he never does. Rush decides what to use his three hours for, no one else.

The speed at which Maddow has become irrelevant shows that without credibility you are only an entertainer. Which is sad for their news department, but much sadder for Maddow, who's show is over. Liberal takeover of the media is a huge reason the country has been misdirected.      TV lies...go outside.

Leftists don't care about the truth. To them, "truth" is whatever helps the liberal cause.

1. "I mean, let’s face it, we didn’t have slavery in this country for over 100 years because it was a bad thing. Quite the opposite: slavery built the South. I’m not saying we should bring it back; I’m just saying it had its merits. For one thing, the streets were safer after dark."

2. "You know who deserves a posthumous Medal of Honor? James Earl Ray [the confessed assassin of Martin Luther King]. We miss you, James. Godspeed. "

3. "Have you ever noticed how all composite pictures of wanted criminals resemble Jesse Jackson?"

4." Right. So you go into Darfur and you go into South Africa, you get rid of the white government there. You put sanctions on them. You stand behind Nelson Mandela — who was bankrolled by communists for a time, had the support of certain communist leaders. You go to Ethiopia. You do the same thing."

5. "Look, let me put it to you this way: the NFL all too often looks like a game between the Bloods and the Crips without any weapons. There, I said it."

6. "The NAACP should have riot rehearsal. They should get a liquor store and practice robberies."

7. "They’re 12 percent of the population. Who the hell cares? "

8. "Take that bone out of your nose and call me back(to an African American female caller)."

9. "I think the media has been very desirous that a black quarterback do well.  They’re interested in black coaches and black quarterbacks doing well.  I think there’s a little hope invested in McNabb and he got a lot of credit for the performance of his team that he really didn’t deserve. "

Are all of these fakes?

Edit: well according to snopes.com, the "bone in the nose" and the Jesse Jackson quotes are true. We know the quaterback quote is true. We know the Mandela quote is true. I'm still working o the NAACP quote..

Well the NAACP quote is sourced to Jan of 1993 and the 12% quote is sourced along as is this whole quote ("Why should Blacks be heard? They're 12% of the population. Who the hell cares?"

So did the host mischaracterize Rush or error in the quote  she chose?

Do you want fair news or news biased in your direction?

I didn't leave the Republican party, they kicked me out.

There is no fact-checking organization that is not run by liberals and therefore politically biased. Politifact, Snopes, Factcheck, Wikipedia, all full of liberal bias and unreliable. Conservatives need their own factchecking organization with a fancy website and all, since the odds of one being put together that is politically neutral is nil.
