I don't listen to his show except when someone else has it on (I can't stand his voice, amongst other reasons), but I think the position he holds re: race doesn't have a good name. I don't consider it racist, but it's not 100% socially accepted either.

There are clearly cultural and biological differences between blacks, whites, asians, hispanics and other racial/cultural groups in the US. These differences, when negative and pointed out by a white guy, are sometime termed racist. But if the observations are factual (in as much as any group can be described by generalities) then I think they should be tolerated rather than stigmatized. Rush pushes this line very hard.
