right after you define "racist"... racism will end racism remember? I'm defending Imus. I'm pointing out the joke the media has become by using their own rhetoric. Just like how easy it is to point out your agenda using your own rhetoric.

Is Imus's problem that he called the basketball team nappy headed, and that's racist, or that he called them all 'hos', and that's just downright rude regardless of race? Stevie Wonder calls himself nappy headed. seeklyrics.com Stevie Wonder - I Wish Lyrics Looking back on when I Was a little nappy headed boy Then my only worry Was for Christmas what would be my toy Even though we sometimes Would not get a thing We were happy with the Joy the day would bring I don't think you can get upset with Imus calling some black women nappy headed, but calling a bunch of women whores (for no apparent reason) is wrong. But it's not racist, it's just a plain old insult.
