Laura Ingraham read his full article on the air this morning, and I was very impressed with Whitlocks’s courage, vision and verbal aptitude.

I have never heard of James Whitlock before so know nothing about his background, whether left or right. This column reflects much of my thinking on the whole Imus affair. I have an appreciation for Mr. Whitlock articulating the broader aspects and fallout from the insulting remark Imus made about a girls sports team. Aside from the Black issues, I am disgusted with Republicans like Guillani and McCain saying they will go on the Imus show again. That trash mouth has routinely blasted and belittled President Bush. Any Republican, especially one who is running for a Republican political office, who throws him a lifeline is not affiliated with the right party.

I actually didn’t follow the Imus flap until it got so blown out of proportion. Yes, the remark was deplorable, but was Imus trying to be funny? Was he trying to imitate the hip hop slang or the rappers? I don’t know. But the some of the multi-culturist hate mongers want to have it both ways. They want us to recognize hip-hop as a productive culture, accept the hip-hop way of speaking as respectable and even teach the study of hip-hop in our colleges and universities (Duke even has a course in Hip-hop journalism and Hip-Hop Art), but don’t ever try to imitate it, unless you are Black.

They can’t have it both ways.
