RUSH: Here is Al in Dallas. Great to have you, Al. Welcome to the EIB Network.<\/p>\n
CALLER: Well, it\u2019s a pleasure to talk with you, Rush. A pleasure.<\/p>\n
RUSH: Thank you, sir.<\/p>\n

CALLER: I wanted to tell you two things, one about my grandson and your books. But first, thought I would help define a little bit for the young people what racism truly is. Racism is about excluding individuals based on their race. It\u2019s about denying something from someone because of their race. To say that you think Koreans smell is not racist. It\u2019s rude. To say to someone who\u2019s Chinese that you don\u2019t like their facial features is not racist.<\/p>\n
It shows you are offensive, but not racist. To deny these same people access to something all other people have access to because they are Asian is racist. There\u2019s a huge difference between being rude, prejudice, pejorative, impolite, offensive, uncouth, and being racist. I think that needs to be clear to young people, because they think that if you say, “Oh, I hate Italian food. I don\u2019t like the Italian food,” it makes you a racist.<\/p>\n
RUSH: Let me tell you something.<\/p>\n
CALLER: (crosstalk)<\/p>\n
RUSH: Hang on a minute, Al. I appreciate what you\u2019re saying, and I agree with you. He\u2019s absolutely right about his definition of racism, and you can even take it further. But I have to share something with you here. I just saw this. Ivanka Trump just got her kids a new puppy. I think they went to a… It might be a rescue puppy, or they might have gone to a breeder. I\u2019m not sure which. It looks like a Husky. The thing is, it\u2019s a white-furred dog. It\u2019s white with blue eyes. Twitter has blown up accusing the Trumps of being racist by getting a white dog.<\/p>\n
I\u2019m not kidding you! I\u2019m not kidding you. I just had the thread sent to me. There are pictures of the dog with allegations that this proves Trump family racism. “They had to get a white dog, and one with blue eyes. Did you see that! They had to get a white dog.” We\u2019re talking about fur, hair! We\u2019re not even talking about skin. There is no such thing as a racist dog. What if they gone out and they got a black Lab? Would that have been okay? That would have shown they were not racist? So, Al, this is how far gone we are.<\/p>\n
You can give the proper definition to a lot of things. The proper definition of socialism? They don\u2019t know what that is. They don\u2019t know what the real definition of communism is. Millennials today hear “socialist” and think that it means being social, being nice to people. Living in groups of people that treat each other fairly. That\u2019s what think socialism is. They have no idea what it is. Same thing with racism. Racism now is any disagreement with somebody… By the way, the only people that can be racist in America today are white men.<\/p>\n
(paraphrased) “African-Americans or women, Asian men or women, Injun men or women? It\u2019s impossible for them to be racist \u2019cause they\u2019re minorities. They don\u2019t have any power to hurt anybody with their racism. The only people that are racist are white men — and, even further, white Christian men. White Christian gay men are excluded because they\u2019re gay, and gays are a minority and therefore they can\u2019t be racist.” It\u2019s hideous, and it\u2019s ridiculous. It ought to be… It should have become a joke by now, as frequently and as often as the Democrats are out there charging it. It\u2019s lost whatever meaning it ever really had.<\/p>\n
There are some genuinely rotten people out there who are racist, and there\u2019s many proper definitions of the word. Now, Al was right that a lot of what is just rude and impolite behavior is being chalked up to racism. But racism, in its real form, is hideous. It believes in the inferiority of other human beings because of the way they look. It believes in the inferiority of people over things they have no control over. Real racism is despicable, it\u2019s hideous, and it\u2019s ugly — and this is what\u2019s so outrageous.<\/p>\n

They\u2019re just charging that any white person\u2019s existence today is racist, and it traces to the founding of the country. That\u2019s what they\u2019re saying. I mean, there are college courses now on what type of where white people are being forced to take it so that they\u2019re being forced to understand their born-with, inbred racism. They\u2019re being taught there\u2019s nothing they can do about it, that they are inherently flawed in this way. The only thing they can do is constantly apologize and make amends at every turn. Well, what we\u2019re talking about here is not racism.<\/p>\n
And the racism that\u2019s properly defined, there isn\u2019t that much of it. That\u2019s the real thing that irritates me. When you start talking about actual, real racism, the Democrats want you to believe it\u2019s everywhere, and that it exists solely in one political camp: The Republican camp. Barack Obama was one of the biggest racists you can believe. Racism is also the active attempt to divide people on their human differences. I\u2019ll tell you: Trayvon Martin was the first episode where Obama sought to divide.<\/p>\n
(impression) “If I had a son, that\u2019s what he\u2019d look like!” So Obama basically said his son had been murdered. By who? A “white Hispanic.” The only “white Hispanic” known to exist in all of humanity: George Zimmerman. They ought to put Zimmerman in a museum. He\u2019s the only “white Hispanic” anybody has ever seen! He was dubbed that by (who was it?) the New York Times. And then, of course, Ferguson, Missouri. Every such opportunity — Baltimore, Ferguson, Trayvon Martin — the Obama administration was right in there with Eric Holder driving the bulldozer doing everything they could to divide people by virtue of race.<\/p>\n
That is hideous.<\/p>\n
These people really should be ashamed of themselves for what they\u2019re doing and the damage they are causing, and it\u2019s all for the sake of the quest for power.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
