re: #704 Thanos

No he is not. You’re missing the point. And if you think he’s is one those with his own dog whistle you’ve got the wrong guy and got the guy wrong. I’m sooo tempted but I’m not going to get into ‘he has friends that are …’ trap. It is being twisted to fit the popular BS that he’s a racist because “hes a Conservative - nuff said” crowd.Again, if I wasn’t 100% certain I would not be typing/posting this.
I was ready to believe that maybe he did a ‘bout face’ as people do change. This is just the same old routine - I don’t believe hes gone through some kind of life altering change. I started lsitening to his show, daily, back during the build up to ‘Desert Storm’ and stopped listening about a year ago. Figured ‘hey, anything can happen in a year’ and so I was willing to listen to the clip thinking I’m about to witness the end of Rush. I’ve never heard a racist remark leave his mouth and if I ever heard a surreptitiously made tape of him making racist comments off the air I would be stunned.I hate racists and racisim so much that I’ve had to be physically restrained and removed from more than one joint and on more than one occassion over the years. Not saying I was ‘right’, my temper has been something I’ve had to work on over the years (I’m also not a pacifist) but suffice to say I do not put up with it - in the real world or over the air waves, internet etc. Sorry if you don’t ‘get it’, I don’t know what else to say.
