Jackie Mason put it in perspective on Red Eye the other night. It was a sentence, not murder. You’d swear that Imus had mugged, raped, shot, burgled, beaten up, or something else in the heinous catagory. As nasty as it is to call someone a ho, I’m sure that these ladies have been or will be called a bitch. What will they do?
Why are these people off limits? They are celebrities.
I think what Imus said was stupid, but not enough to lose his job. I find the actions of Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton, Barack Obama, etc to be even more offensive. The suggestion that Imus should be fired, and that the network should make it up by hiring more Blacks reflects the true agenda.
Barak Obama is the only one to pay critical attention to..because he is in a position to influence how the government treats you..
