I hope Randi doesn't have plans for that 5 grand
Neal Boortz says he will donate $5 K to AAR if she can prove that he called Muslims "ragheads".

He fucking knows full well that he's called them that, and more.

And there's video out there, too.

Watch the scumbag welch on the bet.

These people are all about rewriting history and selective memory.

1. and the sad thing is
few will remember the truth, they will remember his "confrontation" with the evil liberal bitch, and take refuge, once again, in their ignorance.

He just may send Randi a 5K check, but you can bet your bananas that we will never hear of it.

3. Boortz left himself an out
he said she would have to prove he called ALL muslims ragheads. He knows what he has said he probably has segmented the muslim population into raghead and non-raghead sectors.

7. Sounds like typical conservative "debate" tactics.
I've seen it a lot on the freep boards. Make a statement, then demand proof that you made that statement on a full stomach and with proper punctuation during the seventh house of the moon while thinking about your grandma. AHA! Can't prove it. I KNEW YOU WERE A LIBERAL SCUM LIAR!

4. He knows there's no way to collect it.
He made his point. The feebleminded will forget all about it about five minutes ago. I do hope Randi runs with exposing him on her show though. You know how she takes Rush or Sean apart every now and then.

5. Here's Boortz: Prophet Muhammad a "phony rag-picker"
Predicting Media Matters would flag his Cindy Sheehan attacks, Boortz also declared Islam a religion of "violent, bloodthirsty cretins" and called Prophet Muhammad a "phony rag-picker"

9. He wins on a "technicality"
Actually, 2.

According to Media Matters, he only called the Prophet Muhammad a "rag-picker"

Not all Muslims, only the Prophet they all follow. He only called Muslism "violent cretins" which is way better than "raghead." and not "rag-head" but "rag-picker" (whatever the hell that is).

So, watch - he'll claim he wins. Even though the semtiment is the same, you know how Repukes like to parse.

13. Did she? i didn't get to see it and was going by what I read here.
I thought someone said Boortz based the bet on him saying "all Muslims".

18. Neal Boortz is a walking encyclopedia of stupidity.
As a far better policy wonk once put it, 'he ain't worth a warm pitcher of spit.'
