I dont agree with a lot of what you say. However some things you and I agree on....does that make you an asswhole in my book for the few things we do disagree about? No.

I'm sure a lot of people think to one extreme of the aisle or another, but no one in their right mind will come out and speak that way, because of reprecussion. These people do...and they get flak for it...someone's gotta be all crazy and over-reacting.

Rock, that's like when idiots say Hitler wasn't so bad b/c he built the autobahn system. An asshole is still an asshole even if he makes valid points from time to time. How anyone can defend Rush is beyond me.

I defend his right to voice his opinion, even if it is nothing but a toilet attached to a fat man.

He can say anything he wants, it is up to you to not listen.

But the issue is not his right to free speech but whether or not you agree with his views, such as him thinking Obama is a n*gg*r. Any one who thinks like that should not get a pass, even if they make a valid point from time to time. He's a racist.

Did she make any reference to race in her jokes?

I don't really care for Rush, or many other "right wing" blow hards, but I do find it amusing that if Jon Stewart, Colbert, or the Bowling for Ice Cream dueche speaks his mind about the right that is cool, and free speech. Then when Rush, O'Reilly, whomever speaks the same BS hot air it is because they are assholes. Call them all assholes, or call none of them assholes, but don't be selective on the asshole naming.

First off, Colbert pushes the right wing agenda even if he looks like he's playing around.

Please post something that Stewart said that you find repugnant or offensive. For that matter, post something that Michael Moore says that's repugnant.

Did I say she Did ?? What I did say IS that if she was white she would have been branded a Bigot !

Telling a joke about someone of different race, even in bad taste, does not make you a bigot. The joke must include racist comments for that to be.

TBH I don't watch ANY of them, right or left, because they are more about the spin than they are the actual news. Reporting news does not get ratings, sell advertising, or keep you in your job. Being enough of a dill hole that people are polarized about you does.
