A perfect picture of this whole Imus sillyness. Michelle Malkin paints an even better picture of this idiocy today by pointing out the top songs on the hip/hop charts today. Songs with lyrics such as:
This is why I’m hot
Catch me on the block
Every other day
Another bitch another drop
16 bars, 24 pop
44 songs, nigga gimme what you got…… We into big spinners
See my pimping never dragged
Find me wit’ different women that you niggas never had
For those who say they know me know I’m focused on ma cream
Player you come between you’d better focus on the beam
I keep it so mean the way you see me lean
And when I say I’m hot my nigga dis is what I mean
Or:
I’m a b pimpin
I don’t be slippin
When it come down to these hos
I don’t love em
We don’t cuff em
Man that’s just the way it goes
I pull up in the Phantom
All the ladies think handsome
Jewelry shining, I stay stuntin’
Thats why these niggas can’t stand em
I’m a chick mag-a-net
And anything fine I’m bag-gin it
And if she got a man, I don’t care
10 toes and I wanna be, cause I gotta have it
Oh, I’m not excusing Imus. Don’t listen to him, don’t know him. But to take what he said and make it into this big of a deal is idiotic. He gets suspended for a few weeks, as he should, and that’s it. But to have the man who once called Jews "diamond merchants", who caused a racial meltdown by accusing a white man…an INNOCENT white man….of raping Tawana Brawley, tell Imus that he should be fired is un-freakin-believable.

It might serve conservative radio talk show hosts that are on during Imus’ timeslot on other stations (and those shows that bracket his timeslot) well to consider that starting Monday and for two weeks, they might have more liberal listeners than usual. That might be a great opportunity if used correctly. Those people are going to be tuning around the dial looking for something to listen to. It’s a great chance to reach out with some plain old common sense.
Why is this national news?! Why are politicians like Obama “supposed” to issue statements, addressing it (or more accurately, pressured to condemn it and call for the firing of Imus- who I could care less about)? Why?!
Why are members of the Rutger basketball teams making ridiculous comments like “This has scarred me for life”? Good grief and for goodness sakes! Grow some thicker skin!!!
I thought John McWhorter’s comments on last night’s Dennis Miller Show was pretty astute:
Sticks and stones….
Thanks for posting my video from youtube 🙂 I tried too get Audio from the “Reverend” Jesse and his Hymie town comments. For SOME reason, I can’t seem too find them. Nice site also.
