Rush Limbaugh on minorities: "The days of them not having any power are over, and they are angry. And they want to use their power as a means of retribution. That's what Obama's about, gang.

Rush Limbaugh on white people: "Obama’s America, white kids getting beat up on school buses now. You put your kids on a school bus, you expect safety but 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,' and, of course, everybody says the white kid deserved it, he was born a racist, he’s white."
