Imus: Message From a Nappy-Haired Freeper

Like it..or hate it...it’s just free speech. Period.

[don-o]

Obviously, some free speech is freer than other.

[Phantom Lord]

How long before “Nappy Headed Hos” comes into regular useage because of this episode?

[AmericaUnited]

I believe that most Freepers are, like me, disgusted at the ill- conceived stab at “humor” by him and his sidekick Bernard McGuirk.

No! Why should I be ANYTHING after hearing what some brain dead old hippie radio jock like Imus says? Good grief, if you reacted to every statement made like him and his ilk you would be an emotional basket case. I ma as effected by what he says as I am by the incoherent ramblings of some spaced out homeless vagrant who walks by.

If I were imus, I don’t think I’d be commenting on anyone else’s hair

Dang, I just knew somebody was going to beat me to that remark.

[AmericaUnited]

Note to self:... Why did you waste valuable seconds of your life commenting on this?

[mountainfolk]

Yours is an interesting take on this Imus tempest. IMO politics and racial turmoil feed off of each other. Britt Hume’s show tonite it was mentioned that Guliani and McCain would still go on the Imus show so at least in their minds, there is political profit to be gained by doing so. It seems that politics knows no shame-—which we all pretty much knew. It just gets our attention every once in awhile.

[I see my hands]

IMHO..

• If I were Imus I'd see to it that Gangster Rap Played in his time slot while he is on suspension.

• If I were interviewing a B-Ball gal I'd ask her if that sort of talk is heard on the court.

• I think the right should ignore the issues and facts and instead concentrate on grinding Imus into the ground. For practice.

Did you happen to see the black comedian on Hannity & Colmes last night? His opinion was interesting.

Yes, I saw it. I didn't care for the black comedian. Everytime he said "b's", "h's", and "n's", I winced, because (sadly) he was just giving ammunition to Imus and folks like him.

[Osage Orange]

I would suggest you read it again.........

[BigSkyFreeper]

Political correctness run amok. That's all it is. The basketball team should have told Imus, "Screw you. You miserable old bag of bones".

Imus has said worse, so the question is, "why now?"

[Krankor]

I believe Imus will not return.

[Stajack]

If I were imus, I don’t think I’d be commenting on anyone else’s hair

Amen.

[Osage Orange]

Who’s using who....I think is the question.

[BigSkyFreeper]

Did you happen to see the black comedian on Hannity & Colmes last night? His opinion was interesting.

I saw it, and it's an opinion I agree with.

I can’t help but note the old saying that if one lives by the sword they will surely die by the sword. The hypocrisy of the Left is mind boggling. I’m a conservative but I would never think to use that kind of language. And we are the “evil” ones to hear these creeps talk. God only help the Republic if Hillary with her profanity laced language is elected to president. Decent people don’t use this kind of language — period.

[Osage Orange]

You mean the guy named Patricia...or something like that?

I heard him on the radio today....Seemed half-way reasonable.

“If a tree falls in the woods and there’s not a reporter on site to report a possible resounding roar that may have occured and potential cataclysmic damage that ensued, did it make a noise?”

[kinoxi]

I would suggest you read it again.........

An adult made a statement and apologized for his inflammatory remarks. The origin of the words admits he was wrong. What is your point?

[Freee-dame]

He is a no good, BS artist dirt bag, who sucks up to other dirt bags who by and large are as completely shameless as he is about their professions.

This morning on a radio talk show someone who sounded like he knew what he was talking about (I missed the intro) said that guests on Imus are really surprised when they learn how small his audience share is. Since everyone they know watches Imus, they think that everyone else does too. The MSM is really isolated in their little cocoon world.
