Come to think of it—I’ve never watched or listened to Don Imus. I don’t know whether he was on radio or TV. No, I saw him on TV a time or two, but never watched more than a few minutes. I found him very uninteresting.

I did not know that the word "nappy" was an ethnic word. I learned the word when we built our house. When we were preparing our doors for painting or staining, we had to pretreat with a primer. When the primer dried it dried with a very roughened surface which felt a little like sandpaper. That surface had to be sanded to remove the 'nap' before the paint was applied.

I am led to believe that 'Nap' refers to the roughened surface of certain kinds of fabrics or carpet.

It seems to work as an adjective or noun, but ethnic????????I didn't know it was a word set-aside for black folk.

"A fake racial storm Katrina in America"

Zero, learn to keep your mouth shut! ;-)

[Petronski]

Whitey, learn to keep your mouth shut

"Say what???

Listen here, Mr. man! Whitney
talks when ever she wants!

What's that? Oh . . . . never mind.

[DJ Taylor]

I don't get it. What's so racist about calling a person one of these things? It must have been the "nappy headed" remark that set folks off. /sarc

[rdb3]

Bobby's gonna get her now...

[machogirl]

that scenario was already familiar
her husband, the first “black president” and Juanita?

[Kirkwood]

Guy is a very common word. You must be one of those illegals everyone is talking about.

"Is it just me or does anybody remember a few years back when Hillary was trying to justify her stance on the right to choose and she used a scenario of a white woman being raped by a black man... anybody remember that? I was looking for a video of this or audio on YouTube but could not find it and I would LOVE to post it on YouTube if there does exist audio or even better a video of this. Anybody remember this?"

It was Nancy Pelosi

(sorry, that was the only link I could find quickly, and I believe the date is incorrect, I have HEARD an audio clip of it a few years ago, think it was on an AM radio talk show sound byte)

[rdb3]

Thanx for that link. Copy and paste.

[Thumper1960]

Oh, those self flagellating, PC, whitebread suits who have been brainwashed and feminized to the point where they'll apologize for slavery, the Crusades and global warming.

Imus wasn't all that good. Tying his life to the entertainment and self hating metrosexual honkies of Liberalism was a mistake for Imus. I wonder which group or what person is next on the Brown-shirts list.

The “timesonline” omits the understory.

Senator Robert Byrd, former Grand Kleagle of the Ku Klux Klan, is a respected member of the Dimocratz. He used the word ‘N***er’ in an address to the Senate three or so times a few years ago. No fuss was raised.

Senator Trent Lott praised an elderly Republican Senator who had a rascist past (while he was a Democrat). Lott was vilified and lost stature in the Senate.

Representative Alcee Hastings is a former District Court Judge who was impeached for inducing and accepting bribes. He is now in office, representing Florida. Tom DeLay was the Speaker of the House until a hack DA from Austin, TX (Ronnie Earle) put together a set of charges and went thru something like 6 grand juries before he got a grand jury to indict DeLay.

There is a Nevada Senator (let’s just call him Harry) who has 3 - 4 children, all lawyers and lobbyists. They all lobby Indian tribes. The Senator passes legislation benefitting Indian tribes.

There is a California Representative (let’s just call her Nancy) who supports union activity and legislation heavily. She and her husband own a hoity toity hotel in Marin County. They refuse to hire anyone who insists on being part of a union, they keep wages low so as to rake in max bucks.

More examples? There are a lot more.

The “timesonline” leaves out the understory that there are two political parties in the U.S. One is mostly honest, the other is typically dishonest. I’ll leave it to the reader to guess which is which.

[Savage Beast]

No, I'm legal. "Guy" just doesn't do anything for me. I'm a man, used to be a boy.

[Mr. Silverback]

His biggest mistake was going on Sharpton’s show. He might as well have asked David Duke for forgiveness.

[Mr. Silverback]

I’m a Pentecostal and I resent the idea that this fountain of hate claims to be filled with the Holy Spirit.

[Obie Wan]

Don’t waste a moment of time resenting it,because Al Sharpton is decidedly NOT a Pentecostal

[Mr. Silverback]

First, Imus is a pig. He should be paid to be somebody's shoeshine boy, not be paid millions to host a radio show.

That said, the level of hypocrisy exhibited by almost everyone calling for his head is beyond measure. I heard Robert Johnson from BET talking about how damaging Imus' words were, and I thought to myself, "Are you telling me BET doesn't run any movies or rap videos that refer to women as 'hos", Robert?"

[Mr. Silverback]

Snoop Dogg says Imus was wrong but it's OK for him and other rappers to use those words. Why? Because Snoop and his buddies are talking about loose women from the ghetto, and Imus was talking about women of real accomplishment.

Yeah, sure Snoop. Go back to your blunts.

Thanks so much. That was the incident I was referring to even though it was Pelosi and not Hillary as I had thought. I believe I had heard the audio of it as well but nothing comes up online. If it did, I was going to post it on YouTube.

Thanks again
