Limbaugh said on his radio show. "Why is it so hard > to admit that it's race What's so problematic about admitting it?" > > "Secretary Powell says his endorsement is not about race," Limbaugh wrote in > the e-mail. "OK, fine. I am now researching his past endorsements to see if I > can find all the inexperienced, very liberal, white candidates he has > endorsed. I'll let you know what I come up with." > > The comments immediately caused a stir on several Democratic blogs and an > Obama campaign spokeswoman called them "disgusting." They were also heavily > reported on several news programs Sunday night and Monday morning. But > Limbaugh made clear Monday he is not backing down from them. > "This was all about Powell and race, nothing about the nation and its > welfare," Limbaugh added. The talk radio host also criticized members of the > media for not addressing his claim that Powell likely hasn't endorsed white > candidates who, according to Limbaugh, have similar political leanings and > experience as Obama.
