"Look at what’s happened to race relations under Obama. In the run-up to the 2008 election, many liberals claimed that electing Obama would bring racial healing to America but Rush Limbaugh correctly predicted that Obama would make things worse.
"How right he was.
"We haven’t located the audio but here’s a transcript from Rush’s website in 2013 where he talked about his 2008 predictions:" :
"As Predicted, Race Relations in America Have Worsened Since Obama's Election"
. . . Let us fast forward to January of 2009.
"Obama has been inaugurated president and he proposes his first bit of legislation. Let's say that it's -- I don't know -- some civil rights-oriented thing, and a bunch of people start howling. You know that the race industry can't wait for this. Any criticism of Obama, the first black president, is going to be met with charges of racism by the likes of the Reverends Jackson and Sharpton. It will make their race business all that much more prominent.
"RUSH: The point is that back in 2008, I predicted that Obama's election would not ameliorate race problems. It would not eliminate them. It would not remove from this country the tag of racism and slavery and racism and prejudice; it would exacerbate it, because no criticism of Obama would be permitted. Any criticism of Obama would be called racism, and I predicted it would probably get worse." . . .
