Previously: Playing Limbaugh's declaration that he's “colorblind,” Matthews responds: “Yeah, right”

Limbaugh: “I'm colorblind ... I treat everybody equally”

Limbaugh “kind of like[s]” analogy that Obama “is the Donovan McNabb of the U.S. Senate”

Limbaugh: "[I]n Obama's America, the white kids now get beat up with the black kids cheering"

Limbaugh on Obama: “We are being told that we have to hope he succeeds, that we have to bend over, grab the ankles ... because his father was black”

Limbaugh invented “racial component” to Hackett's decision to withdraw from Ohio primary race
