Growing up in a nice neighborhood with educated parents makes you a bigot, says CNN host

I picked up a pack of Midol one day, as I had never heard of them and had a number of the symptoms - due to IBS. They don't sell the good stuff for that here, they have in AUS.

My B.I.L said I should ask the female pharmacist about them. Boy was that embarrassing. Even the teenager and her mom next to me started giggling.

I don't think Rush belongs. He's not stupid. Wrong and totally manipulative, but not stupid.

Surely he's right about something now and again.

I'm sure he's 'right' when he is doling out his oxycontin.

I always knew I wasn't a bigot.

####### are you on about now?

You know exactly what he is talking about.

Actually Danno, you're showing your ignorance there. He actually edited his post after I hit reply to, so at first, It didn't make any sense, however after he edited it, it at least was coherent.

So you do agree he has a point?

Seems yourself, Paul and BY have been trying to pussyfoot around this concept that deriding people for their racism is somehow bigotry as well. It's not racism, and it is stretching the term bigot beyond it's actual meaning.

UPDATE: CNN has fired Sanchez!

That was fast. CNN just waited until 6 pm eastern to fire Rick "CNN's Second-Dumbest Anchor" Sanchez. CNN will pay morons to read Tweets on-air, but they won't employ morons who semi-coherently express resentful antisemitic comments on satellite radio.

Here is CNN's brief statement:

“Rick Sanchez is no longer with the company. We thank Rick for his years of service and we wish him well.“

Ouch. Rick should just lay low for a while before seeking out a new cable news gig. The good news for him is that Pat Buchanan can't live forever.

I think you misread Bys post.

I THink the point is apart from anyone elses bigotry is your failure to recognize your own with your treatment of groups or people you don't like...... your close minded posting.

Pointing out bigotry is not bigotry.

Seeing only one form of it might be.

I love the positioning of bigots as victims when they are called out on their awfulness. Poor, poor bigots. *hugs*

The victim card is just another facet of the self-centered dream you live in. Conservatives are famous for it. Reverse racism!! Mean powerful black people being mean!! It's all smoke and mirrors.

You know who lives in self-centered dreams? Infants. You know who can justifiably be afraid of people that don't look familiar to them? Infants. You and your club are simply putting words, poorly and several decades after you should have evolved, to the basic reflexive positions of... infants.

It would be fascinating if it weren't so creepy.
