'When white people get mad we condemn talk radio'

Radio host Rush Limbaugh ripped media coverage of a new NBC poll showing white people to be the “angriest” Americans.

The conservative media star said predominantly white groups are held to a different standard when they appear upset with government overreach, societal trends and injustice.

“There’s no reason whatsoever white people should ever be mad. And if you are, there’s something wrong with you and we’re gonna get to the bottom of it and probably find out you listen to talk radio,” Limbaugh said Tuesday.

“But when they’re looting and rioting in Baltimore, St. Louis, stand back. When they’re blowing up the World Trade Center we’re supposed to stand back and understand the rage and ask ourselves what are we doing that makes them so mad. But not when white people get mad. When white people get mad we condemn talk radio, we condemn white people and so forth. Very, very inconsistent.”

The NBC News/Survey Monkey/Esquire online poll released Sunday showed the following:
  • 54 percent of whites said they are angrier now than one year ago.
  • 43 percent of Latinos and 33 percent of blacks were angrier now than one year ago.
  • 73 percent of whites are angry at least once per day.
  • 66 percent of Hispanics and 56 percent of blacks are angry once per day.
  • 61 percent of Republicans are angrier now than one year ago.
  • 42 percent of Democrats are angrier now than one year ago.
Limbaugh said media coverage of white anger is liberal activism masquerading as objective reporting.

I have to tell you people , I have a neighbor who hates this guy ,his name is Don Messick. He is retired from the army as a chopper pilot , he voted for Obama 2 times with huge signs in his yard. He , in my opinion , is a traitor and a communist. I just can't understand these people , I guess he's never had to earn a full days pay. By the way , his ventures as a chopper pilot were all here in the states , .
