I'm just kind of getting tired of this whole idea of letting subtle racist behavior off the hook because they say, "but look, I have black friends",

In this same vein, one of Rush's sit-in hosts is black and apparently so is his producer/assistant, the silent "Mr. Snerdly". So no one could call him prejudiced, right? He is too clever to fall into the Don Imus trap.

So maybe, by dictionary definition he isn't a racist, he's just a race-baiting bully.

He used to have a "Homeless Update" segment where he would make fun of homeless people. The segment was cued by a song sung in black dialect.
I once heard him ask a caller with a black accent to define "leveraged buyout". It was a type of "let's see how dumb this guy is" test that he never imposed on other callers. I won't call him a racist, but he is definitely prejudiced.

I so agree!
