NOW They Tell Us: Media Matters Comes Clean Over Rush Smears
by PubliusThe Radio Equalizer blog has published audio of Media Matter’s Karl Frisch admitting to Stephanie Miller on liberal talk radio that Rush Limbaugh never made the two famous racist statements defending slavery and praising Martin Luther King Jr. assassin James Earl Ray. These statements were resurrected and proliferated by the media once it became known that Limbaugh was pursuing part ownership of the NFL’s St. Louis Rams:
FRISCH: You know, in fairness to Rush, those two out of literally dozens of racist things were not necessarily accurate. We were never able to find them. We’ve had people call us trying to find it. We don’t know where they came from. They could just be Internet apparitions. But you know, that being said, anyone who wants to know how racist he is, we’re happy to give them other examples.
As is par for the course in the left-wing echo chamber, both host and guest take it as gospel that Rush Limbaugh is still a racist despite the fact that these quotes were fabricated. Needless to say, they fail to offer a compelling example to justify that assumption, at least in this clip

Ya right give me an example!!!
"Okay, the two things we said he said were proven false. But trust me! That guy's a raaaaacist!"
The left's ONLY argument anymore is complete fallacy…I wonder why since common sense is FREE more on the left don't have any…such a shame. They claim to want peace, yet all they do is create war and spew hate speech.
It never fails. I wonder if every time they say "we’re happy to give them other examples" they just naturally expect that no one will challenge them to actually follow through on that.
Another typical Liberal tactic. When forced to admit the truth, just say something along the lines of "Well this may have proven false but the seriousness of the charge still holds true".
The Reverend Ken Hutchinson (ex NFLer) and Mr Snerdley (black assistant to Rush) will certainly attest to that………
Yeah, She says "You guys won't put it up until you've made sure it's true"..
What about Media matters dropping the ball on ACORN Philadelphia? ACORN Lied to them, but they "Put it out there" just the same, And now we KNOW it isn't true.
I want example now! I want to hear it! Problem is they cannot show it, Media Matters only when it comes to their ideaology! Media Matters you need to cite your claims!
The only thing Rush Limbaugh has to do to be labeled a racist is breathe. That's right–if you are a conservative, you may not breathe. Breathing is racist. The world will be a better place if all the conservatives cease to breathe.
The Dan Rather Defense: "Sure I made it up but that doesn't mean it's not true!!!!"
WHO in the HELL……do you THINK YOU are to be trusted………..
It is the Most assss..in……hine comment make on the web I've ever seen.
YOU don't KNOW squat!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Disgraceful!
Media Matters is headed by David Brock. Brock was a conservative until the mid to late 90s when he switched sides. This article states in a nutshell that Brock lied for the right and now he is lying for the left and that neither side deserves someone like him http://slate.msn.com/?id=2063759
I retrived this definition of racicism that's being used at the (mostly 99% black…well they say, "No whites allowed" in their header) "ObamaForum.com.
Check it out:
"Definition of racism according to the Seattle public school system:
"Those aspects of society that overtly and covertly attribute value and normality to white people and Whiteness, and devalue, stereotype, and label people of color as “other”, different, less than, or render them invisible. Examples of these norms include defining white skin tones as nude or flesh colored, having a future time orientation, emphasizing individualism as opposed to a more collective ideology, defining one form of English as standard, and identifying only Whites as great writers or composers."
This definition is based upon the book Teaching for Diversity and Social Justice: A Sourcebook which is the guidebook for our public school teachers all across the country to help them teach our children about racism, sexism, classism, antisemitism, heterosexism, and ableism.
As this is a public institution driven by the good of the children, it has more credibility than some private dictionary that is driven by profit."

Right…only white folks can be racist…I get it now.
Not Over.

They ALL need to forget about Rush Lindbaugh. They cannot possibly match wits with him. He will hand them ALL their heads on a platter.
Okay – I admit it, I'm a racist, too. At least that's what I've been told since the primaries when I supported Hillary instead of Obama and then voted McCain. Now I'm called a racist because I oppose Obama's policies. I wear it as a badge of honor!
With half his brain tied behind his back, Rush is a class act. Something these dimwit leftists in the MSM know absolutely nothing about. They lie, lie, lie, lie, lie and expect us to believe them. Well, we don't and we won't. They can talk till they are blue in the face, but have no CREDIBILITY!
It is fake but accurate.
So let me get this straight. They supposedly have all these other examples of quotes that shows he's racist, but instead, they decide to run 2 that didn't even exist. You know, I have to wonder if these loons on the far left have lied so many times that they actually believe the garbage they spew? Thank God America is finally awake and can see the blatant wrecklessness that has been waged on the American people.
I went to Soro's big Media Masters following a link provided by some liberal twit. All of the quotes they posted were snippets taken out of context or Rush quoting someone. Pathetic.
Oh yeah, media masters and media complex, you just got PWNED by AB, James and Hannah AGAIN!!!!
Good luck lying and spinning your way out of this….
I have a simpler definition of racism.
Race: genetic ethnicity
ism: belief system
Liberalism got out of control promoting the idea that power and oppression were part of it. I guess it's easier to yell "racist" than it is to differentiate and say 'discrimination based on institutionalized racism', the definition they're pushing for.
Nobody has commented on the 'definition' provided above from the Seattle government school system? "emphasizing individualism as opposed to a more collective ideology" is racism? THAT is scary folks.
A massive demonstration of capitalism at work is in order. Everyone should boycott the NFL until Godell, Sharpton, CNN, and MSNBC apologize to Rush. After all, money is power.
Rush should SUE them, own them, and then shut them down.

Libs on welfare…
Oops, maybe not. There's ENOUGH liberals on welfare already.
Now Rush should take some of that big money he has and make a statement…..sue Media Matters for slander. This is how you put the lefty loons in their proper place. Tie their skanky arses up in court. That goes for the Opompous white house too.
Besides death and taxes, the only other constant is the refusal of liberals to let facts get in the way of their sophmoric politics.

Well it worked for Dan Rather…oh wait…IT DIDN'T!!!
Sounds a lot like Dan Rather after admitting that his "Bush National Guard AWOL" story was completely false. He said that even though his documentation was completely false, he still knew the story was true!
Classic liberal thinking: even though reality says otherwise, we're right!
As an act of good faith and fair play, those who admit Rush Limbaugh never made the racists comments they atttributed to him should produce the examples of racist comments they claim he did make. These folks were willing to repeat, unsolicited and unconfirmed, comments the man never made, but aren't willing to repeat the comments they claim he did make unless asked to do so.
ok, we trust you – now take the pills the nice lady has for you and get back in your room, it`s time for lights out.
