pleeeeease! is there no escape from this topic? please . . . i beg of the phamily . . . i know we all have our opinions . . . and but for the 24/7/52 media coverage, i would prolly be interested in hearing those opinions and sharing mine. but for the love of god, can we just make this an imus/rutgers/racism/sexism/stupidity/MSNBC/outrage free zone?
please?
please . . . . please . . . . . . . . . . . . please
p.s. y'all know i am joking. fire away. nothin' like free speech and discssion. plus i loooooove a good ol' phamily discussion/argument about volatile topics. although there is a really big part of rags who feels like the aforementioned plea . . .

Okay.....
I don't listen to Imus, ever, but I understand he is a reasonably intelligent person. I think he was just trying to sound hip, hipper than he is. I can see how people would be offended, but isn't it all about intent? I know ignorance is no excuse, and I'm just a white gal with a nappy kitchen, so what do I know. Do I think he should be fired? Not really....sorry Barack

well miss shark, you know barack didn't say anything until he was criticised for not saying anything.
i'm really sick of hearing about this as well. the one thought i really have is that team sure has gotten more media coverage than they ever had before...

I guess my point was, that I'll never really now how offensive the comment was because I'm white. I was fortunate enough to grow up in interracial neighborhoods, and have seen freinds experience racism first hand, but that doesn't come close to living it daily.
As for Barack, I can't even imagine what it's like for him. Is he black enough to get the black vote? Too black to get the white vote? Racism is here to stay.

i can't belive he actually got fired; that is ridiculous and uncalled for. i think he was trying to be funny and it failed. let me guess - is he going to be the next to go into rehab?? i hope not, 'cuz that's a dumb fad too. i hope he gets a job on satellite radio, though

It's all bullshit, and I am no Imus fan.
He won't get a show on satellite because nobody cares. He had no ratings on free radio, he won't bring listeners to satellite.
He's almost 70, it's time to retire, he is done.
