Rush slandered by Frum

Andy McCarthy on David Frum's scurrilous take on Rush's 'race problem':

Asked by the always fair and balanced host [Chris Matthews] whether Rush has a race problem, Frum responded:

Sometimes, he talks that way. I don’t know whether it’s conscious art, but I went through how many times between inauguration day to the present that he’s made a comment about President Obama being invulnerable to criticism because of his race. I found five instances … one a week. That’s sort of a lot.

This is really shameful. But at least we're starting to get the formula down: If you don't talk about race, you're a coward; if you talk about it a little, you're a racist; if you talk about it incessantly over the course of a career, you could become Attorney General, President, or even get your own MSNBC gab-fest; and if you talk about Rush Limbaugh talking about race, you're a media darling.

Anyone who actually listens to Rush's show knows he's the anti-racist. He wants a color-blind society where everyone is on the level playing field of merit and your dignity is a function of your humanity, not your race. Martin Luther King spoke of being judged by the content of our character rather than the color of our skin. How appalling that, 40 years later, a guy who heeds that message is deemed by the media and the rest of the Left to have a "race problem."

Shameful indeed. Read on for the nauseating response to Frum's aspersions from Chris Matthews. Again, the question, this time re Frum: obtuse or malicious?

    Frum's an idiot. This demonizing of critics of the Obamassiah will just get more people to listen to Rush and talk radio. This will eventually win over some of the more conservative Democrats to the real truth about so-called 'Liberalism'.

    All this Rush-Bashing will just get more curious Libs to listen to Rush. Some of them will learn some things about themselves and the world. They will realize that much of what he says makes a lot of sense to them.

    They are shooting themselves in the foot, let them show their Stalinist tendencies.

    Rush has a great revenge strategy which should be implemented when the Right gets the Congress and then the POTUS back. Use the BIG government Obama will have created to expose, prosecute, jail, and shut down all the corrupt Democrat pols, Unions, and ACORN types. Use Saul Alinsky tactics on them.

    On the stupid Democrat Party site I entered: Rush, We Know Communism is Evil!

    The main principle of ‘conservatism’ is ‘individual liberty’, that is instinctual and naturally understood. We must keep planting this thought in the minds of young people, so that they will be better able to resist their institutional brainwashing. ‘Leftism’ is a lie, it is phony, and it is racist at its core.

    All real freedom starts with freedom of speech. Without freedom of speech there can be no real freedom.
