“Conservatives should be VERY disturbed by this sort of political correctness run amok”

Political correctness?!?!? You call an African American women a “nappy headed ho” and that’s “politcally uncorrect”??? Try racist. This bozo has been doing this schtick for years and he’s finally getting called on the carpet. Goooood ridence.

I agree, this is not about political correctness. It is about being insulting an inappropriate by using a racist insult. And what is the context for calling them nappy headed ho’s—other than them baeing black and being women?

It ws political correctness run amok when Rush tried to make a point about race being a part of the way a black quarterback was treated, or when Howard Cosell was criticized for calling a black athlete a monkey, when he had actually been using that term to refer to any fast running person. To label this Imus stuff as political correctness run amok is not accurate.

it’s about consistency. Rappers can’t stop calling African American women whores. Al Sharpton is one of the biggest racists in the country. Jesse Jackson is not far behind.

This phony outrage is a crock. It is beyond stupid.
