Rush Limbaugh – 12 Years a Slave Won Because “Slave” Is a Magic Word

For those who might not have heard, the movie ’12 years a slave’ won Best Picture at last night’s Oscars.

And now,  a word from our local racist.

Rush Limbaugh.

“All good comedy must be rooted in truth. There’s no way that movie was not going to win! If it was the only thing that movie won, it was going to win best picture. There was no way. It didn’t matter if it was good or bad — I haven’t seen it — it was going to win.”

“It had the magic word in the title: slave.”

First Lady Of The United States Makes Appearance At The Oscars

Appearing via streaming video from the White House, Mrs. Obama said all of the nominees demonstrated that “we can overcome any obstacle.”

She said that message is “especially important for our young people” and thanked Hollywood for encouraging children “to open their imaginations.”

The first lady was introduced by Jack Nicholson, who noted that the best picture trophy is usually announced solo.

Mrs. Obama wore a silver, art deco-inspired gown by Indian-born American fashion designer Naeem Khan. It was the same dress she wore for the Obamas’ dinner with the nation’s governors at the White House on Sunday night.
