It’s been a while since a good Roland Martin freak-out about right-wing radio hosts and race<\/a>. Last time it was a two-day Twitter meltdown when Rush Limbaugh mentioned one of the CNN contributor’s tweets. Martin lashed out at critics, telling them, “You just can’t handle the truth<\/a>!” Snort.<\/p>\n

Maybe the uncharacteristic lull was because Martin was gathering steam for today’s breathless meltdown. This time, it was inspired by radio host Neal Boortz.<\/p>\n\n\n

I think I just heard Neil Boortz call @rolandsmartin<\/a> a fat a$$….#wow<\/a>. #Really<\/a>? #Reallydude<\/a>? #why<\/a>?<\/p>\n

— Dyron Ducati (@DyronDucati) July 26, 2012<\/a><\/p>\n

\n\n\n

There are reasons CNN can't draw flies to a dump: Jack Cafferty. Piers Morgan. Roland Martin. It's as if they're in self-destruct mode.<\/p>\n

— Neal Boortz (@Talkmaster) July 26, 2012<\/a><\/p>\n

\n\n\n

I used to be a fan of @rolandsmartin<\/a> until he became such a race pimp.<\/p>\n

— Neal Boortz (@Talkmaster) July 26, 2012<\/a><\/p>\n

\n

Martin claims he doesn’t care what Boortz thinks of him.<\/p>\n\n\n

“@DyronDucati<\/a>: I think I just heard Neil Boortz @talkmaster<\/a> call @rolandsmartin<\/a> a fat a$$….#wow<\/a>. #Really<\/a>? #Reallydude<\/a>? #why<\/a>?” I don't care<\/p>\n

— rolandsmartin (@rolandsmartin) July 26, 2012<\/a><\/p>\n

\n

Hmm. Sure had us fooled.<\/p>\n\n\n

@Clint1684<\/a> @talkmaster<\/a> that fool can't even define a race pimp. He clearly has no clue about the realities of race in America<\/p>\n

— rolandsmartin (@rolandsmartin) July 26, 2012<\/a><\/p>\n

\n\n\n

@Clint1684<\/a> @talkmaster<\/a> and I'm proud to make Neal Boortz uncomfortable when I discuss race because the truth makes him squirm. Excellent!<\/p>\n

— rolandsmartin (@rolandsmartin) July 26, 2012<\/a><\/p>\n

\n

Come again? Who’s squirming?<\/p>\n\n\n

“@kazmilk<\/a>: I used to be a fan of @rolandsmartin<\/a> until he became such a race pimp. — Neal Boortz (@Talkmaster<\/a>)” I was never a Neal fan<\/p>\n

— rolandsmartin (@rolandsmartin) July 26, 2012<\/a><\/p>\n

\n

Martin then barreled forward into a full-on hissy fit about Boortz’s refusal to debate him.<\/p>\n\n\n

@dannythejew<\/a> @dyronducati<\/a> @talkmaster<\/a> Neal has no clue what a race pimp is. Ask why he's afraid to have me on his show to debate me<\/p>\n

— rolandsmartin (@rolandsmartin) July 26, 2012<\/a><\/p>\n

\n\n\n

@dannythejew<\/a> @dyronducati<\/a> @talkmaster<\/a> it's hilarious that Boortz will trash me, but is afraid to talk to me on these issues<\/p>\n

— rolandsmartin (@rolandsmartin) July 26, 2012<\/a><\/p>\n

\n\n\n

@dannythejew<\/a> @dyronducati<\/a> @talkmaster<\/a> it's easier for Boortz to hurl names about me to his audience than debate me in front of his audience<\/p>\n

— rolandsmartin (@rolandsmartin) July 26, 2012<\/a><\/p>\n

\n\n\n

@dannythejew<\/a> @dyronducati<\/a> @talkmaster<\/a> again, I'm not scared of him. I'll fly to ATL, sit in his studio, and debate him. ANY TIME. ANY DAY<\/p>\n

— rolandsmartin (@rolandsmartin) July 26, 2012<\/a><\/p>\n

\n\n\n

@dannythejew<\/a> @dyronducati<\/a> @talkmaster<\/a> I'm in ATL this weekend. I'll stay over until Monday to debate Boortz. Deal, Neal?<\/p>\n

— rolandsmartin (@rolandsmartin) July 26, 2012<\/a><\/p>\n

\n

Boortz was amused.<\/p>\n\n\n

Whoot! We've successfully yanked @rolandsmartin<\/a>'s chain! Getting easier and easier! Not even a sport any more.<\/p>\n

— Neal Boortz (@Talkmaster) July 26, 2012<\/a><\/p>\n

\n

But wait … there’s more. (Shocking, we know.)<\/p>\n\n\n

@Talkmaster<\/a> actually you haven't. I'm just not afraid of you. Debate me Monday. Your studio. Your audience. Your turf. U got game? Let's see<\/p>\n

— rolandsmartin (@rolandsmartin) July 26, 2012<\/a><\/p>\n

\n\n\n

The rhetorical wimp @talkmaster<\/a> Neal Boortz is afraid to debate me. His reason is weak. He's afraid I'll embarrass him in front of his peeps<\/p>\n

— rolandsmartin (@rolandsmartin) July 26, 2012<\/a><\/p>\n

\n\n\n

There is no one I'm afraid to debate. Wimp Boortz @talkmaster<\/a> calls me a race pimp. So debate me on your show before your audience.<\/p>\n

— rolandsmartin (@rolandsmartin) July 26, 2012<\/a><\/p>\n

\n\n\n

So yea, Neal @talkmaster<\/a>, you're the kind of punk in school who mouthed off standing behind your buddies. But ran from a face-to-face<\/p>\n

— rolandsmartin (@rolandsmartin) July 26, 2012<\/a><\/p>\n

\n\n\n

Last comment about the wimp Boortz @talkmaster<\/a>: Real fighters don't back down from a challenge. Punks do. I'll meet u for a debate ANY WHERE<\/p>\n

— rolandsmartin (@rolandsmartin) July 26, 2012<\/a><\/p>\n

\n

Last comment? Finally!<\/p>\n

Or not:<\/p>\n\n\n

One more: I'll debate Boortz @talkmaster<\/a> before a Tea Party rally. Stack the deck, son. I'll still kick your butt in a debate<\/p>\n

— rolandsmartin (@rolandsmartin) July 26, 2012<\/a><\/p>\n

\n\n\n

@modinde<\/a> @talkmaster<\/a> he has no intellect<\/p>\n

— rolandsmartin (@rolandsmartin) July 26, 2012<\/a><\/p>\n

\n\n\n

@Turbothink<\/a> @talkmaster<\/a> proof is in the pudding. I can do it Monday. In Atlanta. But ya boy is scared. Not me<\/p>\n

— rolandsmartin (@rolandsmartin) July 26, 2012<\/a><\/p>\n

\n\n\n

“@osleyish<\/a>: @Talkmaster<\/a> @rolandsmartin<\/a> take him on!” he won't! Neal Boortz is a loud mouth punk. I just shake off haters like him<\/p>\n

— rolandsmartin (@rolandsmartin) July 26, 2012<\/a><\/p>\n

\n

Exactly how many tweets does it take to shake off a hater?<\/p>\n\n\n

@NewWavePatriot<\/a> @talkmaster<\/a> there is only one way to find out. I can do it Monday. In HIS studio. Will your Super Hero punk out? Yep!<\/p>\n

— rolandsmartin (@rolandsmartin) July 26, 2012<\/a><\/p>\n

\n\n\n

@RichardDooleyIV<\/a> @talkmaster<\/a> how am I defensive? I'm ready to go on the offensive against your patron saint, Punk Neal<\/p>\n

— rolandsmartin (@rolandsmartin) July 26, 2012<\/a><\/p>\n

\n\n\n

“@Turbothink<\/a>: @rolandsmartin<\/a> @Talkmaster<\/a> He will do it. You just can't start that screaming racial crap.” no he won't. He's feeble & weak<\/p>\n

— rolandsmartin (@rolandsmartin) July 26, 2012<\/a><\/p>\n

\n\n\n

@PatrickLeBoo<\/a> @talkmaster<\/a> I'm in ATL this weekend. I can debate the wimp in HIS studio.<\/p>\n

— rolandsmartin (@rolandsmartin) July 26, 2012<\/a><\/p>\n

\n\n\n

“@justwinph<\/a>: @rolandsmartin<\/a> @talkmaster<\/a> tell that Aggie to sack up.” I'm the Aggie GRADUATE. Not Neal.<\/p>\n

— rolandsmartin (@rolandsmartin) July 26, 2012<\/a><\/p>\n

\n\n\n

I'm laughing @ the supporters of punk Boortz @talkmaster<\/a>. They say he'll wipe the floor in a debate. OK, let's do it. Oh, sorry, he's scared<\/p>\n

— rolandsmartin (@rolandsmartin) July 26, 2012<\/a><\/p>\n

\n\n\n

@changedintofire<\/a> @talkmaster<\/a> no, the bully is the one trashing me on the radio but scared to face me on the radio<\/p>\n

— rolandsmartin (@rolandsmartin) July 26, 2012<\/a><\/p>\n

\n\n\n

@PatrickLeBoo<\/a> @talkmaster<\/a> I'm ready ANY TIME. ANY DAY. ANY WHERE<\/p>\n

— rolandsmartin (@rolandsmartin) July 26, 2012<\/a><\/p>\n

\n

As Martin wails and flails on Twitter about “Punk Neal,” it looks like Boortz is focusing on more important things:<\/p>\n\n\n

Haylee and Me! Can you help? 888-750-2772. pic.twitter.com\/HLQCjKCz<\/a><\/p>\n

— Neal Boortz (@Talkmaster) July 26, 2012<\/a><\/p>\n

\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Oh, and that debate? Not. Gonna. Happen.<\/p>\n\n\n

@LindaHusser<\/a> Not going to happen.<\/p>\n

— Neal Boortz (@Talkmaster) July 26, 2012<\/a><\/p>\n
