Does The Republican Party Support Segregation?

For months we've watched the Republican Party embrace the hate spewed by Rush Limbaugh on a daily basis, and grovel at his feet when they inadvertently offended him -- but did the de facto head of their Party finally go too far?

Last week, a video of a school bus beating showing two African American children assaulting a white student began circulating the internet. Despite claims by authorities that the attack was not necessarily racially motivated, hate radio host Rush Limbaugh jumped on the story and claimed that in “Obama’s America the white kids now get beat up.” Yesterday, Limbaugh proposed a solution to this problem — a return to segregated busing:

LIMBAUGH: I think the guy’s wrong. I think not only it was racism, it was justifiable racism. I mean, that’s the lesson we’re being taught here today. Kid shouldn’t have been on the bus anyway. We need segregated buses — it was invading space and stuff. This is Obama’s America.

Does the elected arm of the GOP still think Limbaugh is "someone with ideas" that they have "enormous respect for"? Will they join in his call for a return to segregation?
