" Are watching us. Our top story tonight major development in the Rush Limbaugh NFL controversy as many -- you know rush was dropped from the group that's trying to by the St. Louis Rams. But now -- learning lots of new information about some of the people who didn't want Limbaugh in the game. For example NFL players association executive director to Mars Smith. Objected to Limbaugh he said that pro football is at its best when it rejects discrimination and hatred. Now everybody knows that rush is a huge critic of the Obama administration. But here's something that you probably did not know. Smith worked on president Obama's transition team and he also used to work with attorney general Eric Holder. Did you know that. And another man who doesn't like rush to talk radio host name Warren Ballantine."
" Was on the O'Reilly Factor with me last night talking about some of Russia's controversial comments. But instead of having a civil discussion he decided to take a cheap shot at me. -- Look at implant blocked the magic negro and -- and we got out of despite if if the joke that that that's not not racially I mean -- Idiot -- racial too real. Unable they -- your thing that I would -- about arguing with the red -- maybe you should do some research go back and find out there was an article written by a black person headlines. About. Barack tonight he'd made it. Yeah -- he. But some of the latest on his show so what he's making fun I bet he won it if you're using the I port tonight. Did you catch that. This guy told me to go back to the ports that's -- for being an uncle Tom house negro lazy a tool of slave owners. In -- Bentley Ballantine is proud of having taken a cheap shot at this debate was over he had nothing else that say he's bragging about. A real man would probably apologized. Saying it was in poor taste and move on. Apparently it's okay to use these kinds of racial slurs as long as you're defending. What some consider the politically correct point of do. Joining us now from Seattle Washington is pastor Ken -- and a former NFL linebacker and a personal friend of Rush Limbaugh. And from Los Angeles talk show host radio talk show host Tammy Bruce thank you both for coming -- an -- that let me begin with you. This -- guy up and me if you're a black man and you stand up and -- something that's not politically correct defend a Rush Limbaugh. And on your his friend. You see what they did to me you must know what they will do do you."
" Where you got to understand something one and and his fair point -- going to Smith and understand this and Abalone extremely clear on it. This is extremely personal to me you -- to you on this is. A new story a big news story. And the -- from. LA you know this is a new story. This is more than new story direction that our friends close friends. And when you talk about being close friends I don't see Russia have a white man. He's -- he's my friend. I don't see him -- a talk show holes of their famous talk Schuerholz. He's very close friends get over Iraq my political views and there -- things -- of this attack. There's about eight. Friend of mine who is being -- on and I don't care what others think about."
" Well let me just -- anything you let me just say -- and you can also say that a friend is wrong but in this case. When you don't think -- brand is being legitimately. Criticized it when you think things are being softly said about him and you stand up as a black man to say it. Well god help you god help me because now we are the targets of attack and we are made out to be less than. Faithful. To all that's happened to black people in America and honest in our criticism. -- made -- to be. How slaves."
" A -- what Warren Ballantine said the U was one the most racist statement that you could get. The man just ran out car you have negro and I don't know what white America understands a derogatory statement that that -- And we should not be able to put whitbeck kind of rhetoric from the other side who call themselves -- We got it we are conservatives. I'm a Christian I'm a past -- very large church and what they are doing to rush. It isn't about just rush. This is about attacking conservatives. Because values in America and I'm not going -- where they are -- friend and I'm not -- well."
" now Tammy Bruce let me come to you because I think that what we have seen this week in terms of what took place here. Is the MSNBC. And CNN's that the world. Being all too happy to put out statements attributed to -- then later turn out to be absolutely wrong. We see the NFL players association. Trying to use this because -- in the midst of contract negotiations and they want to knock Roger Goodell the commissioner back on its heels make him feel defensive. What we seeing here is. So much information coming about out about how the Obama administration and their friends were all involved with this. It's only now being revealed."
" Well at least it is being revealed and this is what the American people need to see is how many fronts were operating at watts. The media certainly they unions via the NFL there social arguments via Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton -- community organizers when I was on the left. We used all of these elements to move a point but never have I seen including -- my time on the left. Such an effort being put on to actually destroy an individual. And the fact is the American people left ask themselves with this kind of coordinated effort. Where was it based. And if this is the kind of dynamic they want for all of us here discussing this says minorities you and I want we don't always agree. For doctor Hutchison for myself as a gay woman we have very different social perspectives what what we all do recognized. Is that this is an effort to isolate. And to demonize those who do not conform and the people that are harmed by that the most. Are minorities and every American regardless of where you -- on the -- this political spectrum have to ask. Is this kind of power that is now wielded by the Obama administration we -- in the campaign to with Geraldine Ferraro and the clintons. Is this kind of power and desire to destroy. Is it acceptable to anyone for any revote and I think -- American Bandstand. I mean yeah there a double standard when -- we asked political commentators -- strong words to describe our opponents the differences. This seems to be people attached to the American presidential administration or the government. Using -- phrases in frameworks to not just. Cast Rush Limbaugh as an example if someone or Geraldine Ferraro. These are attempts to destroy. It's one thing to have an opinion and to voice sit in in in an aggressive manner but it's quite another to make an effort. To destroy people and as the doctor mentioned. To send -- mention a message and as you've noted want to other people if you do this we're gonna hurt you too you know what I just."
" I -- find this all unbelievable. It seems to me that even for me as someone who sees himself. On the liberal side of things in a minute that you disagree. You get put them. Reverend ball and run thank you we appreciate it."
