That jackass doesn’t have any room to talk about what goes over the airwaves. Every conversation he has with Hannity is full of racism. Why is that okay?

He just said ‘broad’.

What an outrageous insult to all women. Women who are fighting in Iraq, women who are working to support their families, women who raise the future generation......

I think I’m getting the hang of this.

The Left have always wanted to get rid of Talk Radio because they can't compete in the arena of ideas. They see this episode as an opportunity. Last night, Olberman led with the question, what about Limbaugh, Savage, Beck and Boortz. Zahn on CNN had a similar piece.

Pathetic yet a little frightening the way these people think and what they are willing to do.

Imus knows he’s a goner at CBS. He’s publicly going after Sharpton, so there’s no way he’s not getting canned.

This is going to stir up a crapstorm. What strange bedfellows we make, to be defending Don Imus of all people.

I think what he said was “there’s a lot more money to squeeze out rich whitey corporations, and we intend to continue our extortion un-abated as always....”

Airwaves? Airwaves? You pathetic, race-bating moron, your own people use the N-word right and left, and I am expected to wuss out and write "the N-word". Why the hell would I be expected to take anything you say seriously?

So, Sharpton is going to crack down on all those rappers degrading black women and promoting violence?

And thus a political movement which began with “The Free Speech Movement” in Berkely in the early 60’s and counted as a first victory Carol Doda’s “right” to display her silicone enhanced boobies at a night club now takes another step toward censorship and restriction of speech.

We do have a 1st Amendment. Sharpton can rant all he wants, but the 1st Amendment stands. Any attempt to control the airwaves will probably be struck down by the USSC.

That is, essentially, what I heard.

Also, I heard Jesse saying he would be meeting with CBS and NBC executives to shakedown talk about why there are not more blacks on air doing the news.

It’s not a defense of Imus per se. It’s a defense of free speech and my disgust at the hypocrisy of the media.

Where was the outrage when Jackson called Jews hymies and NYC hymietown?

Where is the outrage when Rose attacks Christians on a weekly basis?

Where is the outrage when Condi Rice was called a slave mistress to George Bush? She’s been called worse than that, but I’ll stop there.

Censorship. Once again led by liberals. I wonder if Tipper Gore will get involved again?
