The fact is, people tune into shock jocks to hear them insult people for no reason. That fact that he resorted to race, should say something about Barack's character. That fact is, Imus has been saying crap like that to people from all walks of life, for years, and he didn't get canned 'til he made a black joke... one that's not even offensive...
"Nappy Headed Hoes"...
That just warrants an "... ok?... wtf?"
... by no means a "GASP!~OMG, HE SAID THEY HAD NAPPY HAIR!!!! WTF!?!?!?!?!?!?!?"
I'm just saying, if it was a black dude saying, "Dumb blonde hoes", the world wouldn't have batted an eye... and I don't think they should... and I don't think should at Imus either.
Edit: ... and by the way, you can't knock me for wanting it to be invisible to me... I mean, people can choose not to listen to him... which is what I want to do to these threads. I mean, I'm not asking for people to get banned for being atheist, but people see to want to fire people from their jobs over stupid crap, that they could choose not to listen to.[/b]
