It happens nearly every week, invariably ending with faux-embarassment and a retracted statement, so this should be a nice long thread:

The British politics thread is 95% stuff like this already...

This goes back to last week, but hey, it's a new thread:

limbaugh is very very into black = gangs. i can remember him worrying that there would be gang violence at the super bowl a few years back cuz the coaches were lovie smith and tony 'crip killer' dungy. my fave was him going on and on about how the nba promotes gangs and how all the teams wear gang colors one year during the finals; one of the teams in the finals that year were the pistons.
