On his show yesterday, Maha Rushie practically defacated on himself with fear as he described a decades old afro-centric conspiracy to overthrow the U.S. government perpetrated by Jeremiah Wright, Barack Obama, and William Ayers.
We thought that it was just liberal welfare policies and all that that kept blacks from progressing while other minorities grew and prospered, but no, it is these wackos from Bill Ayers to Jeremiah Wright to other anti-American Afrocentric black liberation theologists with ACORN, and Barack Obama is smack dab in the middle of it, they have been training young black kids to hate, hate, hate this country, and they trained their parents before that to hate, hate, hate this country. It was a movement. It was a Bill Ayers, anti-capitalist, anti-American educational movement. ACORN is how it was implemented, right under our noses.
It has been a movement, it has been a religion, and Obama and Jeremiah Wright and William Ayers were all up to their big ears in it.
This was during an interview with Sarah Palin, which Limbaugh knew would be recorded and played later in the day on major broadcast media, because of Palin’s lack of availability to anyone who would ask her a difficult question. Limbaugh was trying very hard to get the idea past his audience of ditto-heads that Barack Obama is the second coming of Huey Newton, that ACORN might as well be Al Qaeda, that all this time we were looking for the terrorists who hate us and they’re right here: we can tell who they are by the color of their skin. If there’s a purely racist instinct, it’s the ability to create an elaborate fantasy of victimhood in which “the other” is responsible for all your problems, and has in mind only your absolute destruction.
As usual, there’s a great deal of projection here. ACORN is not part of some Stressing participation in democracy, I think, is a poor way to do that. But I can’t think of anyone who spends more time trying to get people to hate, or has a bigger platform to do so than Rush Limbaugh.
