Rush Limbaugh Makes Racist Quip About Paterson
Source: NBC

Rush Limbaugh is drawing ire for a racist (and factually inaccurate) comment he made about Gov. David Paterson on the heels of the resignation of New York Congressman Eric Massa.

Yesterday, he said David Paterson will be playing "massa" if he appoints Massa's replacement. The comment was a reference to slavemasters and Paterson is African-American.

"So, David Paterson will become the massa ... who gets to appoint whoever gets to take Massa's place," Limbaugh said, "So, for the first time in his life, Paterson's gonna be a massa. Interesting, interesting."

Except, Paterson does not have the power to appoint a replacement to Massa.

It seems like Rush already forgot about the prior NY special election in which a Democrat prevailed over a Republican and Tea Party candidate.

3. how predicktable yawn
and I found Costa Rica a wonderful place to visit. It has no standing army>constitutionally abolished its army permanently in 1949.It is the only Latin American country included in the list of the world’s 22 older democracies. Costa Rica has consistently been among the top Latin American countries in terms of the Human Development Index
The country is ranked 3rd in the world, and 1st among the Americas, in terms of the 2010 Environmental Performance Index

In 2007 the Costa Rican government announced plans for Costa Rica to become the first carbon neutral country by 2021 According to the New Economics Foundation, Costa Rica ranks first in the Happy Planet Index and is the "greenest" country in the world.

Why the fuck would you curse them with that bloatbag pig?????? He is part of what is promoting decay here in US for their goodness sake pick some where else to curse
