The right may call Pelosi a drunk or Schiff a pencil neck dweeb, but that is about where we typically end it.
1. “I mean, let’s face it, we didn’t have slavery in this country for over 100 years because it was a bad thing. Quite the opposite: slavery built the South. I’m not saying we should bring it back; I’m just saying it had its merits. For one thing, the streets were safer after dark.”
2. “You know who deserves a posthumous Medal of Honor? James Earl Ray [the confessed assassin of Martin Luther King]. We miss you, James. Godspeed.”
3. “Have you ever noticed how all composite pictures of wanted criminals resemble Jesse Jackson?”
4. “Right. So you go into Darfur and you go into South Africa, you get rid of the white government there. You put sanctions on them. You stand behind Nelson Mandela — who was bankrolled by communists for a time, had the support of certain communist leaders. You go to Ethiopia. You do the same thing.”
5. “Look, let me put it to you this way: the NFL all too often looks like a game between the Bloods and the Crips without any weapons. There, I said it.”
6. “The NAACP should have riot rehearsal. They should get a liquor store and practice robberies.”
7. “They’re 12 percent of the population. Who the hell cares?
8. “Take that bone out of your nose and call me back (to an African American female caller).”
9. “I think the media has been very desirous that a black quarterback do well. They’re interested in black coaches and black quarterbacks doing well. I think there’s a little hope invested in McNabb and he got a lot of credit for the performance of his team that he really didn’t deserve.

Here's some of my favorite quotes from him, such a champion of the right wing.

Several of those quotes have been debunked. On Snopes no less. Particularly the one about slavery and James earl ray.

I am not a frequent listener to Rush but I didn't believe those quotes for a minute. As if someone who says such things would have remained on the airwaves as long as he has.
How stupid do people have to be to believe he said that crap?

Look no further than ATS itself on Ruth.
I made sure to emphasize it was a minority... Just like it is here.

Not so sure about the small minority part seems more like a celebration. Go on reddit every single left leaning post has zero sympathy. I'm not even a Rush fan at all but the celebration of his death is disgusting trash.
Maybe Im bias because I witnessed my father die of lung cancer and don't wish that in my worst enemy

They weren't debunked he just denied saying them. Either way. There's plenty more instances of where that guy incites all sort of crazy rhetoric. He gaslights his listeners into thinking the left and what not are gonna eat their babies or something all the time.
