Why does it matter so much if he meant it or didn''t. Comedians who entertain audiences of all races make the most racist jokes. They are not raked over the coals. Well, if a white comedian does maybe. Mencia, Chris Rock just to name two. They are so racist in their jokes nobody cares. People have opinions of other people. Call it racist but it is an opinion.

l00ker,

Whites say blacks see racism even when it doesn''''t exist.
Blacks say whites don''''t see racism even when it is blatant.
They are both right.

I''m sick of the Black racists in this country and their double standards attacking people for nothing.

The closer Obama gets to the White House, the worse it gets.

Can you imagine the hell White people will get if Obama actually gets in the White House....I''m sorry, was I suppose to say Black House???

raspugs,

Like in Texas, where the white woman stoned her three children to death and got off because she said the devil told her to do it?

smiley676,

When the options are McCain and Obama, you don''t also think there are some people who will vote for McCain because of his color? I know many people who have listened to the policies of Obama. What scares me are many people who were Hillary supporters now saying they will vote for McCain. That''s crazy if you look at the policies of the three candidates.

Have you ever looked a the political propaganda of the early 1900s/late 1800s. People were also voting based on dirty politics. This is nothing new.

U2PlayNice,

You seem to miss the plot. Many black organizations have had discussions and conferences about rap music lyrics. They have cried to the record companies...and that''''s about all they can do, BECAUSE THEY DON''''T CONTROL THE COMPANIES and THEY DO NOT ACCOUNT FOR THE MAJORITY OF THE RECORD SALES.

You''re wasting your time. He doesn''t understand how business works. He''s just spewing nonsense....He''ll never take the time to research the truth that black organizations ARE protesting this.... It''s much easier to just mouth off bs all day and pretend it''s fact.

Question: What political party is Imus from?

Answer: Republican.

Comment: Oh...Well there you go.

Translation: Most of your racists hang out in the Republican party

Did any of you happen to hear about the Black woman that was convicted of murdering her Black husband by a mixed jury. The judge (3months later) decided the jury was not racially mixed enough and gave her a new trial with a predominatly black jury, and she was found innocent. Would that have happened if she were white?

whatithink,

Agreed that Catholics did the same thing with JFK. But if you don''t know anything about the person that you are voting for other than his color, it isn''t good for our country. Voters should be informed. In the end Obama may be good for our country. But, it isn''t good for people to believe that they can just vote for the person who looks like them and life will be happily ever after. Obama would be good for our country if he got people to look at the issues before voting.

People voted for Clinton because he was a dem and they were sick of repubs. People voted for Bush because they were sick of dems.

When are people going to stop voting on labels and start voting on issues? That is what is wrong with America today. In the past, people paid attention and understood what they were voting for. Today, people vote based on outward appearances and they wonder why nothing gets better.

I agree. There are so many more things in this country to worry about.Our soldiers that are fighting side by side of all different races to insure our freedom. They don''t care what color the guy/girl next to them is.

If you think pasting some random groundless statistics from a website contitutes "looking something up", got news for ya ret@rd...

And what statistics have you posted to say otherwise? The generalizations that come out of your asss?? That''s what I thought. You''re a republican aren''t you? As Imus would say: "There you go. Now we know."

smiley676,

I take blacks voting for Obama in the same way that I take Catholics voting for JFK (in about the same proportions). Many people do not believe the American Dream truly exists. Obama represents hope to many people. It has re-awakened the American Dream...that it''s possible for someone other than someone white and male to be president. This is really good for our country.
