Holy crap! Alan Colmes has just taken some woman from NOW and some guy from the NABJ (Nat'l Association of Black Journalists) to task for opposing the return of Don Imus to radio!
Colmes is arguing that these people need to let the free market work!
My beeber is officially stuned.

I didn’t know Colmes was still on the radio. In Orlando he was replaced with Rusty Humphries; no doubt Rusty gets better ratings, since he’s both conservative and funny.
As for what Imus said, if I was a basketball player and somebody said I had a head like Napoleon, I’d probably be offended, too.
I think it was that funny hat he wore.

As to Imus, the answer is simple: ban censorship. Kidding aside, he should work on becoming an equal-opportunity antagonist.
“Isn’t this what the Left likes to call McCarthyism?”
McCarthyism is ok when the Right gets shut down. On campuses they call it hate speech. They are aiming here for the European model where it is a crime. Even the ACLU who used to champion free speech wants hate speech laws. I guess they think civil liberties should only go to those whose speech they like.
