I think its even worse. A racist preacher vs. a shock jock (who has said other distasteful things before).

Obama still got some ‘splaining to do. The speech was weak. I think he might be done.

The Beast is rising.

What’s the use of being a sh*thead if you can’t act like one?

This hypocrisy is just another resume enhancer for one who seeks office as a democrat. Hillary is scared, “the vast white-wing conspiracy” will trump her “vast right-wing conspiracy” with the moonbats.

Conspiracy + white guilt = problems for Mrs. Sink Emperor

This is a great read. Hope someone can get it to Rush, Sean, Laura, Mark. You know MSM won’t do anything with it.

Imus’s Rutgers statement was 30 seconds at most on one show, followed by a lengthy mea culpa tour .. not Sunday after Sunday for years.

And Blessed Easter to you, mware

Obama is just another con-artist posing as a politician from Chicago.

Will 3rd Ward politics affect Obama's presidential race [Obama supported corrupt Ald. Tillman]

"I just can't understand is how he could throw in with Tillman, the one example I know of the kind of person white right-wingers imagine when they think of black politicians linking militant race rhetoric to city machine corruption."

Barack Obama's choice for Alderman is a
corrupt,
gun-grabbing,
gun-brandishing,
reparations-demanding,
racist

“we really have to do some soul-searching to think about what kind of toxic information are we feeding our kids”

yet he takes his 6 and 9 year old kids to Wright’s church...

“And the notion that somehow it's cute or amusing, or a useful diversion, I think, is something that all of us have to recognize is just not the case. We all have First Amendment rights. And I am a constitutional lawyer and strongly believe in free speech, but as a culture, we really have to do some soul-searching to think about what kind of toxic information are we feeding our kids,” he concluded.

YET. Obama takes his kids to hear the rantings of Wright and that is just peachy. This man is the quintessential hypocrite.

It’s OK - it’s part of Imus’ belief system and he is just working for the liberation of the oppressed.

Run around lecturing everyone else... you’re above the fray.. then turns out you are doing the same thing....

Its' called, "projection / projecting"......accusing people of doing; you...yourself, of doing / have done.

No, he said he thought about Obama’s comments on Imus for a week now.

I swear some of these talking heads get some of their talking points by reading FR.

Many times I’ve read stuff here, and then a day or two later, Hannity, or O’Reilly, or one of the other ones are running with it.

I don’t listen to Limbaugh anymore, but I think he thinks for himself.

He needs to clean up his own church and stop trying to change the subject with race-baiting issues which have nothing to do with the election.
