Beck fill-in on Pope's "shared sacrifice": "You should pay" for "guy with a bone in his nose that needs air conditioning"

From the July 9 edition of Premiere Radio Network's Glenn Beck Program:

(And what's this @$shole's name anyway? I can't play the video (at work) and MMFA doesn't privide it. What's his name?)
Maybe they figure they'll never get the black vote anyway, so why not cater to the lowest Troglodyte denominator?
It's as if the Reich has a death wish. They seem to actually WANT to be the minority and that would fit in quite well with their 'victim' platform.
Secondly, I think the Republicans may have grown weary of defending the indefensible for 8 years... they're finding that it's much more fun to sit on the outside and throw bricks at those trying to run the country.
He managed to be racist, selfish, insensitive, and moronic using such few words.
I don't know who this guy is, but if he is an indication of the second tier right, the Neocons are in deep deep trouble.
I'm glad to know that he's got his air conditioning... someone just needs to put a bone in his head.
God forbids sharing food, clothing or wealth in any form; all religions know this, right Chris!!
Baker naturally has to take it to the extreme with the rich sharing their [OMG] air conditioning. Keep your damned air conditioning, nobody wants it . .

By the way, do you own a radio?
What exactly makes this an example of "political incorrectness"? That's not a rhetorical question: I really want to hear your answer. What is "politically incorrect" about anything Baker said?
Your logic is simply out of this world.
In all seriousness, zamfir273114, you never fail to disappoint. His listeners have radios, and at the very least they should be insulted because they're being treated like idiots who can't have a discussion about politics without racist stereotypes.
What's stunning, though, is your presumption that Baker's comments would only really be objectionable if "a guy with a bone in his nose" raised his hand and said that he took offense. The question of whether or not anyone takes offense, though, really doesn't come close to covering why I take issue with Premiere Radio Network for nationally broadcasting these comments.
"I'll say this up front, I am a Catholic, a pretty devout one at that! This tirade is not only racist, it is anti-Catholic at its core."
Dang you said it good. You said exactly what I was thinking.
I wouldn't say I am really devout, but I share your outrage.
Well done...You are a well informed Catholic.
Total idiot package.
TIP.

And no Baker -- the quote is not aimed at the Pope -- but GOPer fundies who wrap themselves in the flag with Shroud of Turin inlays so they can be offended by science, gays, race, compassion, whatever they deem non-Christian (read what does not affect or benefit them) while screaming about family, church, marriage between a man and a woman only then proceed to act more heinously than the guy with the bone in his nose would ever think about acting. Read you Baker and you ilk.
