Keith Olbermann Begs Oprah To Crush “Racist Schmuck” Rush Limbaugh [Video]

» by Danielle Canada July 7, 2010, 15:38pm

Rush Limbaugh's racist comments are continuing to infuriate individuals sick of his ridiculous remarks, this time MSNBC correspondent Keith Olbermann.

Olbermann who's no stranger to Rush's ridiculous antics, scolded the radio show host again, naming him the “Worst Person in The World” as presented on his "Countdown With Keith Olbermann."

This time Limbaugh topped his list for comments he made on his show Tuesday, claiming that both Oprah Winfrey and President Obama are only successful because of their race.

According to Rush, Oprah enjoys her role as the media mogul she is today because America wouldn't doesn't want to appear “racist” and that if Obama weren't Black, he'd be a tour guide in Honolulu.

“[Obama] wouldn't have been voted president if he weren't black. Somebody asked me over the weekend why does somebody earn a lot of money have a lot of money, because she's black. It was Oprah. No, it can't be. Yes, it is. There's a lot of guilt out there to show we're not racists, we'll make this person wealthy and big and famous and so forth.... If Obama weren't black he'd be a tour guide in Honolulu or he'd be teaching Saul Alinsky constitutional law or lecturing on it in Chicago.”


Putting Limbaugh on the top of his “Worst People In The World” list, Olbermann denounced him saying,

“Ahhh there it is. The United States has been tilted in favor of Black people. We've made it so easy for human beings inferior to the great Rush Limbaugh, the fired by ESPN one month into his dream job, Rush Limbaugh. Inferior creatures like Obama and Oprah Winfrey have been made to be big and famous…they don't have real talent, they haven't earned it….Oprah please crush this schmuck!...Rush Limbaugh, overt racist, the worst person in the world.”

    I'm so sick of Rush Limbaugh attacking Obama why don't he let it go, his hatred for Obama ,Oprah or any other black person that is doing well is inciting hatred and animosity in white people towards people of other ethnic groups. Since he is a key figure in the republican party he makes the whole party look suspect why do they allow him to speak for them?

    • J-Heezy

      Rush is a racist... Anyone who points out that Obama is unqualified and way over his head is a racist... doesn't he know that white people can't point out the obvious? It doesn't matter that his #2 guy at his company is black, or that one of his best friends is black... he is still a racist because Obama is awesome!

  • thank god im white

    mannnn rush limbaugh is a disgusting person. everything that comes out of his fat mouth is trash. he DEFINITELY doesnt speak for or represent all white people or even all republicans. i cant believe enough people in this country listen to him to give him the credibility to make HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS of dollars a year. i wish oprah would go so hard on this dude.

  • Ladybug

    @Iwishiwaswhite. If Oprah called Rush Limbaugh up for examination on his comments he wouldn't be hated Oprah would. Rush Limbaugh has a huge following, even though he is a member of the Republican party many consider him there leader and he's getting people riled up with hatred for Obama with his comments.

  • c

    No matter what Rush be hating on We still got a black prez My Prez is Black. Words that Rush say just makes people like me Go Vote for whomever I want. Not whom Rush wants. It's not have it your way Rush. What he swhould be doing is drug rehab, going on a diet and stop smoking all those cigars because all that is well common sense tells anyone what that is. Also, why aint he in jail for all those dru--zzzz he had his house keeper getting. Different set of standards.. Instead of hating on blacks and minorities he should Like Michael Jackson said...Starting With The Man In The Mirror--NUFF SAID

  • AVADAVIS

    LETS NOT ACT like rush dosent make millions of dollars a years for spewing this garbage! Do i think he believes personally what he says on the air MAYBE but do i know for a fact its made him a VERY WEALTHY MAN so i take what he says with a grain of salt. He's a business man like myself so i see his hustle an on some level respect it! DONT BE FOOLED BLACK PEOPLE!

  • James Thomas

    "Rush" who? Who is this guy again? Are we supposed to care what this guy says? What is he, a hot dog vendor or something? I talk alot, but *****ody cares until I'm yelling "Fire!". Unless this guy is yelling out something about my paycheck or my family personally...

    who

    cares.

  • ATL

    I'm not sick of Limbaugh moreso the idiots who actually listen to him. I can't believe millions of IDIOTS actually respect the guy, but then those same IDIOTS will cry out loud that Farrahkan is the most racist person in the world and he's full of hate.....the way I see it is if a person listens to Limbaugh and has the nerve to quote him back to me during debates on why they think Obama sucks then I automatically put them in Racist MF category and I don't take them serious anymore.

  • Bopa

    His comments are very dangerous. Think of it as Hitler pointing out how Jews are so successful in Germany and taking too much of the wealth for themselves. I don't believe Rush is on the level of Hitler but he's planting seeds of hate into his followers that black people are making large sums of money when they don't deserve it.

  • Asia

    Thats a White man for you........HATEFUL

  • Bronze

    That's funny. He earns millions because he is a racist.

  • Isis

    Rush Limbaugh feels he speaks for the angry white male who feels he is no longer the top of the food chain in Jobs,Housing social status even in getting women he now has to compete with other ethnic groups which is causing anger, but Rush Limbaugh, Glenn Beck and others who rile people up are actually provoking some nut to try to *****asinate Obama he has gotten a lot of death threats some we don't know about, one man followed him around for more than a year, another got within close proximity before he was caught and he had a shotgun on him another sent death threats by email to the white house threatening to kill Obama his wife and two daughters. I pray that Rush Limbaugh and the others who are sparking this put a stop to it.

  • The Capitalist

    Oh gimme a break with all this race card playin BS... Rush Limbaugh is NOT racist and anyone who has actually listened to his show, instead of hearing about him from his enemies, could tell you that. He was speaking on affirmative action and simply stating facts. It is a true statement to say that Obama would not be where he is if he weren't black, is it not? All the racist garbage of the angry white male and black this or that is coming from the posts on this page, not his show or mouth. All that Mr. Limbaugh has ever advocated was a color blind society that does not pay attention to skin color. He talks about successful black people all the time, such as Clarence Thomas, that don't get the credit they deserve and are called "Uncle Toms" because they're Conservative. Oprah and Obama consistently get raised to superhuman levels by people that adore them for "representing black people". While there's nothing wrong with representing your culture or celebrating it, to give someone a job or a college entrance using skin color as a decision-making basis is just plain wrong, and that's the true point that he made. While you yell and scream racism this or that, ask yourself who is really the one focusing on skin color, who is the one looking at the world through a racial lens?

  • Gwiz

    geez... you guys have the worst grammer I have ever seen. I wish you people would get an education before you start spouting off about things you know nothing about.

  • shon

    Kush Limbald is at it again.

  • Money First

    Its funny because one of his statements is true--"America does not want to appear as if it is racist!" That is definitely the truth but people like RUSH just don't give a f*** and that is cool because the ones I am on the lookout for are the ones hiding in the bushes.

  • maybe your mama gave you up?

    this rush limbaugh is a clown, they made it DESPITE being black. he is always putting succesful black people down, like a lot of bloggers and commenters out there. but thats ok, theyll still be doing what they want to do DESPITE what folks say out there.

    this clown is attentionhungry, he hates for other folks to nab the spotlight. guess mama didnt love you enough rush?

  • Bob

    Well, he is *partially* right about Obama. His being black was a BIG reason he was elected (although the main reason was people wanted anyone BUT the Republicans to win, after the Bush years). Oprah, on the other hand- I'm not a fan, but I don't think her race is the reason she is so popular. As for the whole America not wanting to appear racist, well, racism is actually on the rise in this country, so clearly Rush is an idiot.

  • liberals rule 1010

    I think that the best way to deal with people like Olberman is to tune him out. He is a liar and only looking for attention....Just Weird.
    The Prez telling people that you can be har*****ed when u go for ice cream in Arizona simply beacuse you look hispanic is fear mongering of the highest order and intellectually dishonest. Who is actually stoking racism in this country?...Agitate agitate agitate...that's what Saul Alinsky said. Obama believes this theory...turn every group against another...Let's just look at facts and live our lives appropriately.. Be nice to each other and mind our own business. SOunds Good

  • msa

    For the person who said the ppl on here have bad 'grammer', it is actually spelled grammar!

  • AJ

    I love hearing people criticize Rush Limbaugh when they have obviously never listened to a second of anything he has actually said They read moveon.org, or a story like this, and they decide Rush Limbaugh is a racist.

    The problem is, these quotes are all made up out of thin air. I know, because I have listened to the show consistently for 12 years, and he simply is not racist and does not care about skin color. He NEVER said anything like what he is quoted as saying here. Rush dislikes Obama because of his POLICIES, not his skin color, and anyone who has ever listened to him rather than reading about him would know this. Criticizing Obama's policies has nothing to do with race---it has to do with the POLICIES. He reacted the same way to Bill Clinton's similar policies, and Clinton is white.

    If we had the chance to have (black) Clarence Thomas or Walter Williams or Thomas Sowell as president, Limbaugh would jump at the chance, because he would approve of the POLICIES and would, as always, ignore the skin color. He doesn't have a "hated" of Obama or Oprah or anyone else because of skin color.

  • AJ

    And stating that someone has his position because of race or is treated differently by others because of race isn't racist. Just as when Limbaugh pointed out that the media treated Donovan McNabb differently because of his race, the media all labeled it a racist comment, but it wasn't---it was pointing out that other people were racist. You could agree or disagree, but in no way was the comment itself racist.

    Of course Obama is president only because he's black. He has no qualifications whatsoever. He served some time in the Illinois state legislature, where he voted "Present" on most of the bills. Then he served 143 days in the Senate before leaving to run for president. A white man with his qualifications would have been laughed out of the race ten minutes in. But the media would not criticize or question him, because they didn't want to be called racist. Pointing that out does not make the person pointing it out racist. Again, you can agree or disagree, but the statement itself is not racist.

  • paul

    It is a shame that people can spew hatred and be rewarded with millions of dollars for doing it.

    I listen to several talk shows and I have noticed that the ones that have republican host all they do is down the President. but when we had a republican president the democrate host had more on thier plate than downing Bush. I don't get it do they hate us that much?

  • Tyronewaitingonmycheck

    Rush is not a racist. You are propping up elNegro up because he is black. You are the racists.

  • Tufr

    I don't get it? Does anyone with a brain actually think that Obama really would be the president of the United States if he wasn't black? If he was white he'd be fomenting a people's revolution out of some back alley store front. Does anyone really think Oprah is talented? Come on.

    Olbermann is completely nuts - the miracle is that he has a job in broadcasting at all.
