Rush has erroneously been accused of being a racist, and of course the drive by media is having a blast painting him (and thus all conservatives by default) as someone who shouldn't own, even partially, an NFL team.
Well, I know he isn't a racist, and everyone who knows him or has followed his career knows he isn't. BUT... those who hear his parodies in passing have no clue what he thinks, and could get the wrong message.
I guess my point is... shouldn't conservatives have higher standards? To point out what the Left does and report it is one thing, but making a song out of a pathetic comment made by a leftwing columnist in the LA Times, for example, is risking wrong interpretations. Conservatives should be above any possible backlash, IMO. Bad language and bad taste should not be a part of a conservative's M.O.
The lies which were stated by the msm, and others should be exposed and they should be held accountable for liable, and I hope they are. BUT, I think Rush does things that are in poor taste, that are not up to the standards we as conservatives should abide by.
IMO, Rush could improve his image by not being so edgy, and using better taste, and judgement.
