Rush Limbaugh has been stopped from buying part of the St. Louis Rams. This isn't exactly a surprise, considering that Limbaugh is one of the four most contoversial people that we've talked about recently. The others are former pastors Jeremiah Wright ("God damn America"; "THEM JEWS won't let him (i.e. candidate Obama) talk to me) and Michael Pfleger (mocking Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, a former presidential candidate, with derogatory phrases such as "There's a black man stealing my show") and talk show host Don Imus (Imus called members of the 2007 Rutgers' women's basketball team "nappy headed hos"). All of these people are DISGRACEFUL.

So what does Limbaugh have to say for himself? This is always the first question to examine/ponder/try to answer/research whenever a sensitive issue comes up. OK, according to Limbaugh himself, "This is not about the NFL, this is not about the St. Louis Rams (and) IT'S NOT ABOUT ME". Well, it is and it should be (as you'll soon find out). "THIS IS ABOUT THE ONGOING EFFORT BY THE LEFT IN THIS COUNTRY, wherever you find them, in the media, the Democrat Party, or wherever, TO DESTROY CONSERVATISM (and) to prevent the mainstreaming of anyone who is prominent as a conservative". So Limbaugh is essentially accusing Democrats of launching a smear campaign. "Therefore THIS IS ABOUT THE UNITED STATES AND WHAT KIND OF WE'RE GOING TO HAVE". Here's the 'I represent the United States' argument, which is typical politics.

As far as the response to Limbaugh is concerned, Michelle Malkin "Says (that the) NFL (is) "aligning with 'race hustlers' IN SHUTTING OUT LIMBAUGH", because of Limbaugh's extremist views and outrageous comments.

The Rev. Al Sharpton goes even further, claiming that "Dropping Limbaugh (is) 'a moral victory for all Americans', which is a damning insult indeed. Sharpton goes on to say that "It is a moral victory FOR ALL AMERICANS - especially the players who have been castigated by Rush Limbaugh. This decision will also uphold THE UNIFYING STANDARDS OF MAJOR SPORTS". Limbaugh's latest comments, on the other hand, have been "divisive and incendiary". This sounds like Obama criticizing McCain on the campaign trail in 2008 all over again.

Finally, according to Dave Checketts, chairman of the St. Louis Blues and SCP Worldwide, a sports, entertainment and media enterprise, "Limbaugh's participation HAD COMPLICATED THE EFFORT", which, again, is not good. More specifically, Checketts said "It has become clear that HIS INVOLVEMENT HAS BECOME A COMPLICATION AND A DISTRACTION TO OUR INTENTIONS; ENDANGERING OUR BID to keep the team in St. Louis", which, again, is COMPLETELY NEGATIVE.

The most recent uproar about Limbaugh, as far as his bid to become part owner of the St. Louis Rams is concerned, is centered around a derogatory comment he made about Philadelphia Eagles' quarterback Donovan McNabb: "I think what we've had here is a little social concern in the NFL. The media has been very desirous that A BLACK QUARTERBACK do well". Now, of course, it doesn't take a genius to figure out that "a black quarterback" is what fueled the latest uproar, anger and disgust over Limbaugh because of its obvious and blatant racist implications.

Before getting axed, here's Limbaugh's final comment/remark: "I'm not even thinking of caving. I'm not a caver. Pioneers take the arrows. We are pioneers. It's a sad thing that our country, over 200 years old now, needs pioneers all over again, but we do". If "we are pioneers", this should not include being racist, BECAUSE RACISM IS AN OLD IDEA. It seems like Limbaugh is ready to fight, but he is clearly facing an uphill battle as far as public opinion/perception of him is concerned.
