They had a Democrat caller (who was black), and they went back and forth (I should mention that the show on at this time is definitely conservative, but not extreme. I disagree with the guys strongly, but they're not the Hannity/Limbaugh types) and she was saying that she was actually more excited about Palin losing than Obama winning (though still really excited about that). When asked why, she said that Palin had brought about so much division and anger and hatred in the country, and that she wouldn't condemn the racist things shouted during her rallies. The response?
"An African-American was just elected president and you think you still have the right to bitch about racism?"
