you can believe him if you want.....i heard it live. did you? I know what came to my mind when i heard it. I know that the masses agree. It was his only defense. What else could he have said? Furthermore, if this was the first time we may feel like giving him a pass but....."nappy headed hoes"? Respectable student athletes!? And this new one is worse!

 

Forgive you! sure why not:rose:.

 

WE talking about what he said today or last night, now to be fair where is all the post about that racist Al Sharpton. or Jackson?

 

totally agreed Jim.

 

This is nothing but a deflection. The question of whether Al Sharpton or Jesse Jackson are racists (and in my opinion, they are), is irrelevent to the question of whether Don Imus is.

When you own your own radio station, and you employ Sharpton and Jackson, and they say something racist on the air, you have my permission to fire them.

 

Speaking of owning a station, thats what Rush Limbaugh did and now he can say whatever he wants. And after the election he WILL be more "edgey" than hes been of late. So i guess thats your answer, Don..... buy a station and spread your hate

 

Thank you,I don't know what race you are, but it getting very tiring to hear the same old attacks on white people when we all make brainead statements at one point or more in our life's.I really don't care about Imus, I just want people to stop being one-sided.

 

well this was the side that was at issue today. Im sure you'll recall the backlash Obama took for endorsing his preacher? Same song and dance.

 

But in the mean time let attack the white folks, and Kim this whole debate is full of deflections. You liberals need to stop being so afraid of black people, most of them are not out to kill you.Yall can bad mouth them like y'all do the white people.

 

Ohhhh, that's good! It's the LIBERALS who are afraid of black people.

Thanks for opening my eyes, Jim.

{/sarcasm}

 

stop with the 'them' you can bad mouth a 'person' regardless of 'race'. as long as you are targeting their character all is well. bad mouth at will.

however, what you do not do is stereotype an entire group of people because of the actions of an individual which was the case in the Imus statement

One could say that is a somewhat liberal view, please don't take offense. Liberal has become a dirty word in the last 15 years or so, but the original meaning, to me at least, is to listen to all views and think about what is being said before forming an opinion. Now everything has become so polarized that nobody listens to anybody all the way through and just steamrollers their own agenda over any opposition. This happens from all sides and makes a mess.

 

Yea, and I heard from many that we were racist because we didn't like REV Wright,now he's a hard core racist, and you won't find any "I hate, Sharpton,Jackson, Wright, or even Obama post no where..

 

are you kidding? The Rev, Wright thing is huge in my city! HUGE! And i do hear the calls for his and Obamas head! I dont know what town you live in but........ here its an issue. But hey, we're pretty liberal

 

to oldie sorry i screwed up the quote

I see...you have no problem proclaiming that Wright is a racist...or Sharpton, or Jackson. But not Imus.

A subtle pattern is beginning to emerge.

 

No, I'm still struggling to see any racism, overt or implied, in what I've posted. Anyone else want to help me out here?

I tell why I don't like liberals it go's back to the early 60s, when the hippies (yes they called them selfs liberals) came on the army base and attack children, I was one of them that got attacked, it was the fucking liberals that attack me and a friend just for being white, now to me any so-call man that would beat up a child just because he's white and his father is in the army is no man at all.

 

ahhhh. it all comes out
