    Got to say one thing. Old Rushbo got your
    attention, didn't he.

    Of course most of you are a bunch of racist
    anyhow. You hate White Conservative talk
    show host, with 19 million viewers....

    Why can't Rush be compared to a comedian or an entertainer? He certainly isn't a journalist.
    The problem with the comparison lies not within what Rush is, but in what he did.

    Mocking a specific person's mannerisms is very different than mocking an entire country's language, regardless who's doing the mocking. That's why I think something like an SNL sketch makes a bad comparison, not because I think (for a moment) that Rush is anything resembling a journalist.

    They're pretty much both premeditated. No difference at all.

    Gee, I guess comedians and other actors shouldn't impersonate or play any ethnicity outside of their own from now on so all this strife will subsided.

    Oh, the pain. Oh, the agony. dribble dribble.

    Why does he need an excuse? I don't see SNL being dragged over the coals for mocking Hu and the Chinese language.

    I don't see Rush's being dragged over the coals either.

    He's just a racist. No big deal for you.

    Just to be clear: One of the leading voices of the Republican/conservative movement is equal to a poorly written satire show designed to be as stupid and moronic as possible to elicit laughter.

    That comparison actually makes things a lot more transparent. Thanks for clearing that up for me.

    A leading voice of the Republican party with 19 million loyal listeners = Will Farrell.

    Fantastic.

    Presumably because the one skewers ignorant mockery, while the other one just sounds funny. There's not a real bright line there IMO.

    kinda like when you say "and don't take offense" right before you say something offensive. Or "offensive". either way, it's stupid to start a thread and let people add to the stupidity beyond starting it in the first place.

    I thought that was the reason for starting it. So that people can add to the stupidity. What is this forum for?

    This forum? You gotta be kidding, VLE. This is the one forum where the Spurs get no play at all.
