Limbaugh: "Can this nation really have an African-American president," or do racism charges "paralyze the process" by which president is scrutinized

From the September 16 broadcast of Premiere Radio Networks' The Rush Limbaugh Show:

The process would be much better if pathetic dirtballs such as yourself weren't on as many radio stations, though.
I like they way they revert to the old tired line that Obama wasn't vetted.
There is still a strong possibility that Obama never actually existed. He is possibly a high level android such as the T1000.
It's not that there is racism in all the hatred being spewed by the right... it's that the media is "portraying" it as racism.
The act is no longer enough to prove racism, they must know what's in the hearts and minds of those who perform these acts.
I thought the right was against hate crime legislation.
I believe the point that President Carter was trying to make (which I totally agree with) is that the current discourse is no different than the debates we've had in the past. There is something else that driving this anger and disrespect from the right.
Paranoid accusations of Nazism is merely just scrutiny?

...I want racial quotas in basketball so that there is an equal number of non-black athletes. Am I going to get any of those things? Didn't think so.

People are still people. When people talk before they think, they can say stupid and derogatory things. To cite every incidence as "racism" is overreaching.

Savage has a point. Every neighborhood that illegals have migrated to has gone down the tubes. My birthplace of Van Nuys, CA is like "little Mexico" now. Shootings, rapings, pillaging, drive-by's, grafiti, prostitution, drugs, (you know, all the things that go along with the Mexican-illegal population. Even the African-American neighborhoods are in awe!

Then why is it that every one of these Mexican populated areas crime-ridden? Really, all P.C. aside, can you tell me why the real estate prices decrease in these areas? One more thing, why are the prisons filled with Mexicans? P.C. aside. See, nothing ever gets done because everybody is afraid to talk about these things.

I don't have to agree with someone in order to value free speech. Sure, Imus et. Al. say some nasty comments; however, unless you can diminish his listenership or his value, your barking up the wrong tree. If Hillary were black, you could resort to using Jesse Jackson or Al Sharpton. Unfortunately, they only come running when black folk are ridiculed. Hmm, that seems a little "racist" in and of itself.

That is Mr. Hussein's, I mean Obama's, name. Coulter only speaks what millions of American's think. The American people have a right to know who they are voting for. Barack Hussein Obama.

If Kilmeade had known the P.C. police were going to take him out of context, he should have rephrased his statement in a more P.C/B.S. way. What he is saying might be correct though: research done in Sweden might have no correlation to research done in the United States because the United States is a much less limited gene-pool. MMFA inferred that he was somehow saying one was greater than the other.
There's another quote for the list, Victor. At first I thought it was a sarcastic reply, but since nobody else made that claim, I have to assume it's Mr. Pan flutes position.
Oh, I know, you don't have one.
FBI is investigating the beating of an African-American woman by a white man at a Cracker Barrel restaurant as a possible hate crime.
Sorry, don't mean to make light of it, but couldn't resist.
The Republican Party got into bed with Southern Troglodytes decades ago to win votes. Now that the Troglodytes have taken over the Party, the Elite Country-Clubbers who used to run it cannot admit that their Old White Man's club has devolved into a hive of racism and stupidity.
I challenge Rush or any of the other right-wing idealogues to come up with one example where someone was called a racist for having a simple policy dispute with Obama -- as opposed to calling him names and making callous jokes about race. (Joe Wilson is not an example, especially since he's factually challenged and has race issues in his past.)
And if Rush is so concerned about abuse of power as he indicates in this clip, where was he during the Bush years?
Limbaugh, Americans have an African-American president, democratically elected by the American people. It's not a question of can. I suppose you think Obama should be removed from office because the left-wing media (according to you) can't cover him (due to fears of being called racist).
