How long before the repubs say something incredibly racist
at the convention and don't even KNOW it's racist--I don't think they can get through tomorrow night without some slip up.

1. Shoot; something like that can be timed with a stopwatch.
It's a reflex with them.

3. I'm sure there is plenty of that going on in private conversations
in the hotels, on the floor, and in the bars when they get liquored up; the n-words start flying. I've seen it happen with conservatives I know.

4. Like Limbaugh calling Obama a "man-child" you know "Boy"
:shrug: and how Democrats are afraid to say no to Obama because he is black and they don't want to be seen as racists..He said the same thing about McNab and was canned almost immediately. Apparently he is a slow learner..

5. Or maybe he just hasn't had a harsh enough lesson.
That NFL gig was a side thing, something just-for-fun for which he didn't need the money. On the other hand, getting his radio show taken off the air would cause his massive income to almost dry up overnight. I've said it before, here and IRL, that if Don Imus could be fired for what he said about the Rutgers team, then Rush should've been canned about fifty times over.

6. I think Fred Thompson starts talking at 9:00.
So, 9:01.
