Rush http://www.wvwnews.net/story.php?id=4767, featured in a new, Spanish language Barack Obama ad, says the commercial distorts his past statements and amounts to “race-baiting” by the Democratic nominee.
The commercial, to air in http://www.wvwnews.net/story.php?id=718’s home state of Florida as well as Colorado, New Mexico and Nevada, features a picture of the conservative talk show host and shows his words on the screen: “Mexicans are stupid and unqualified” and “Shut your mouth or get out.” It was first reported by the Washington Post’s Ed O’Keefe.
“Obama is now stoking racism in the country,” Limbaugh wrote in an email. “Obama is a disgrace – he wants the public to think he is Mr. Nice Guy while his thugs are in Alaska looking for dirt on Palin and he runs race-baiting ads and lies about what he has done and what McCain has done.”As for the quotes, Limbaugh said they were taken out of context.
