    Well Beck is nuts, and Rush hasn't had success with his marriages, but racist & homophobe are serious charges.

    They shouldn't be thrown around lightly. I wonder if his long time call screener/produces (who is African-American) considers him racist.

    He's worked for him for years. Knows him better than you, and he sticks with him.

    I'm sure he had prescription.

    Several probably. :)

    Whatever alleged discrimination Scalia had to endure, I'm guessing it paled next to that of blacks and Hispanics.

    If you look at things honestly, I think it's pretty apparent that anyone with white skin pretty much starts off on first base in this country.

    Ah, Page 2 of the "But I'm Not A Racist" playbook: "I work with black people!!"

    How many Italian-Americans do you think were in his class at Harvard Law?

    I'll bet you anything there were more African-Americans in this year's class than there were Italian-Americans in his.

    Exactly. Scalia grew up in Queens, middle/working class. Just because he is conservative doesn't mean privileged, but don't let facts get in the way of good bs.

    So what's your proof that you're not a racist?

    Graduated first in his class from Georgetown and magna cum laude from Harvard Law.

    But I'm sure that wasn't because he's brilliant or because he worked hard. Probably just some quota thing they had for "I"-talians.

    When I accumulate a long, sorry history of racist statements, I'll gladly provide it...

    Why do I think his trip to the hospital is for research in the records room...

    I wonder how YF will defend Rush's "feminazi" label?

    As a joke? A term of endearment? Part of his shtick?

    Nope. Just pathetic pandering.

    Or the time he told a caller to "take that bone out of your nose and call me back?"
