CNN's Sylvester again cropped Michelle Obama comments
My fellow Americana's,my fellow Democrates!!
we need to do the right thing,we need to do what we wished the republicans would have done 4 years ago. we need to make sure with our votes that a bad,bad horrid man does not take the highest office in our land.
8 years ago the republicans voted for bush and we democrates were very sad,than 4 years ago we figured no way would we let that happen again,but alas bush won again. 8 years of pure hell for all to share.
but this time its not the republicans that have the horrible candidate! its us the democrates that have the horrid man that will destroy America.its is us the democrates that must do the right thing and vote for the best person running and that man is McCain.
the dnc has done everything it can to make sure we have no choice of a president.
we have never been huge Hillary supporters but she is better than obama,we would vote for her,barack we will never vote for.
do we like john McCain??? no not really!!!
do we respect john McCain??? yes we do!! he is a good man.
do we want john McCain as president?? no,but he is better than obama!!!
we are a small group of democrates called keepers that just do not think barack obama cares about our united states of America.
we keepers will vote in this election and if our choice is barack obama or john McCain,we will have no choice but to vote for john McCain.
barack obama will destory and divide our United States of America!!! We the people must stand united and stop him or divided we fall!!! |

Savage calls Retired Brig. Gen. Keith Kerr a "gay, phony general"
I wonder what your thought is, if any, is on the fact that Romney introduced same-sex marriage to Massachusettes and promoted youth gay marches against their parents wishes? |

Kurtz failed to challenge claim by Townhall's Ham that Gore uses 300 times the energy the rest of us use
Check out this US Carbon Footprint Map, an interactive United States Carbon Footprint Map, illustrating Greenest States to Cities. This site has all sorts of stats on individual State & City energy consumptions, demographics and more down to your local US City level...

CLIPS: Savage called Clinton's Rutgers speech Hitler dialogue, added, Goebbels would be proud of you
Michael Savage and Pat Buchanan for a 2008 presedantial ticket! Round up the subversive, deviants and put them away before they finish destroying America with their unnatural ways. Sorry but a penis does not belong in a rectum. |

Imus called women's basketball team nappy-headed hos
mmeiserpod- if you look, the first definition is the one that applies.
" 1. to tire or weary by labor; exhaust (often fol. by out): The long climb fagged us out. "
That is not a British term. The 2nd, 4th and 5h definition are British. The 3rd happens to be nautical. It was not used in a demeaning manner. It was used in it's propper manner. I've heard a lot of people over 30 use it in it's propper manner, not the slang term (homosexual). You people need to use your brains and quit trying to stir this shit up.
As for the comments on here about all white people... those are just as racist and just as ignorant as anything that Imus said! |

Interesting comments.
@Obvios: Billy Packer is not British... there's no excuse for using the term in a demeaning or critical way, especially not on TV.
Had a british friend who used to smoke who would ask to bum a fag all the time... that was funny... but only because she was british and it was a non-derogatory and completely unrelated use of the term.
After finally seeing IMUS' comment in context I can see why people are so steamed. It's more than an off-hand remark it's brutally racist. It's not a matter of him being white either.. a black sportscaster or radio personality would have been equally lambasted and it would have brought up all sorts of issues of how black men refer to women, which I might point out is equally at issue here.
It's not just racist... it's also equally sexist
IMUS's career is over... but I doubt he's going to find a whole lot of sympathy. |

The second one ("you always fag out") wasn't offensive at all. You all need to grow up if you think anytime someone says fag they are refering to a homosexual! Here is the definition.
Fag:
Pronunciation verb, fagged, fag·ging, noun
–verb (used with object) 1. to tire or weary by labor; exhaust (often fol. by out): The long climb fagged us out.
2. British. to require (a younger public-school pupil) to do menial chores.
3. Nautical. to fray or unlay the end of (a rope).
–verb (used without object) 4. Chiefly British. to work until wearied; work hard: to fag away at French.
5. British Informal. to do menial chores for an older public-school pupil. |

I think the people are right that we as black people have to learn how to respect each other and ourselves. But just a two week lay off that does not start till monday that is horibble. Let that be a black person that said anything that sounded out of line about a white person. All Hell would have broke loose. Everything would have been taken away from the black person. But no when it is a white man it is a slap on the wrist that is done just to say that something was done about the situation. And Rasism is suppose to be getting better. It looks like it is just in other forms. This was a basketball game where were they talking about basketball. Talking about how cute or not cute has nothing to do with the game. There are so many types of discrimination that was in this conversation. It is sad. |

Those who call a different race with names , e.g., white trash etc, are the most ignorent people on the planet. Just because one white guy said something bad about other race does not mean you have to generalize to other white people calling them white trash. Similarly, black people also talk trash about whites or other race(and even their own women as was mentioned above) , now do we have to generelize it to all black people and call them names? |

I feel as if he was wrong for saying what he said but also we (meaning the African-American) have to look at the fact that our hip hop entertainers refer to black women as bitches,hoes,tricks, everything you could think of so why is this getting so closely payed attention to. Why is it that a black rap artist can demean the black women in his song but if the same thing happens by another race we turn it into a whole different situation. Is it because there demening their own race it's ok. No matter if your demeaning your own race or another's race it's not right!! Simple as that. As far as Don Imus he was wrong to call College Basketball Players any kind of hoes, when they are going to school to better themselves as individuals and are earning their colleges and universites millions of dollars and furthering their education all at the same time of being an ATHLETE! Why are they hoes? Because they don't fit you demeaner as "cute". Who is he to classify anybody in any category. I feel as if he should be punished for his acts but BLACK MEN HAVE GOT TO STOP DEMEANING THERE WOMEN AS WELL. |
