Inside from the Inside

Preach it, Rush:

In Obama’s America, the white kids now get beat up with the black kids cheering, ‘Yay, right on, right on, right on, right on… I wonder if Obama’s going to come to come to the defense of the assailants the way he did his friend Skip Gates up there at Harvard.

If this doesn’t shock and sicken you, you’ve lost your ability to be shocked by anything outside your everyday filters. This is dark and dangerous stuff. Limbaugh would lead us deep into the hearts of our darkest thoughts and fears.

Nevermind that police now say that the incident to which Limbaugh refers had nothing to do with race.  It was a case of bullying, pure and simple — and old as the everlasting hills.

In Rush’s America, though, it is another sign that blacks are rising up against us, encouraged by our African president and his ACORN thugs. It starts small… a beating on a school bus. But soon they will be coming for us all.

Rod Dreher nails it:

How low will these people go? Look, I think it’s important to talk about black male violence, or at least as important as it is to talk about any other important social trend. I don’t think we should be squeamish about discussing it in a responsible and fair-minded way, despite what the politically correct say. But good grief, Limbaugh is up to something wicked. He’s plainly trying to rally white conservatives into thinking that now that we have a black president, blacks are rising up to attack white kids! Christ have mercy, what is wrong with these people?

It is somehow not enough to disagree with Obama deeply, passionately and persuasively… to counter his ideas with better ones… to illuminate the unintended consequences of his proposals.

No.  He must be demonized, hated and — most of all — feared. He is not merely a statist, he is a black nationalist — the leader of a national uprising.

Look.  The far left had a deranged and irrational hatred of George W. Bush, to be sure. With Obama, though, hatred from the right has become a fire doused with the gasoline of race. And the fringe view, with the encouragement of Limbaugh, Hannity and Beck, has moved into the mainstream.

There is no place good this can go.
