(6,335 posts)8. John Fugelsang Twitter trolls Limbaugh fans by strafing them with Rush’s racist quotes
http://www.rawstory.com/rs/2014/09/john-fugelsang-twitter-trolls-limbaugh-fans-by-strafing-them-with-rushs-racist-quotes/
Friday, writer and comedian John Fugelsang went on an epic Twitter tirade in which he posted quote after racist quote from conservative entertainer and AM talk radio titan Rush Limbaugh.
Earlier in the day, Fugelsang joked about Attorney General Eric Holders resignation by predicting Limbaughs reaction to the news.
This put Limbaugh fans up in arms.
Twitchy.com users said of course that Rush Limbaugh isnt racist. Its liberals like Fugelsang who are the real racists.
Other conservatives on Twitter responded in kind.
So Fugelsang spent the afternoon tweeting out a series of Limbaugh quotes that amount to a kind of greatest hits of the multimillionaire radio personalitys most outrageously racist statements.
Limbaughs scorn isnt just reserved for black Americans. In his long and extensive career attacking traditionally Democratic constituencies, Limbaugh has lashed out at Latinos and other nonwhites.

I'm afraid of Twitter after what those sickos did to Robin Williams' daughter.
