Michelle Malkin has a big list of the various vulgarities that are routinely tolerated by the same media that is currently up in arms about Imus. Here's just one song:
Rich Boy sellin' crack
F*k niggas wanna jack
Sh*t tight no slack
Just bought a Cadillac (Throw some D's on that b*tch!)
Just bought a Cadillac (Throw some D's on that b*tch!)
Just bought a Cadillac
This, along with Roseanne Barr's recent anti-gay remarks are yet another example of our "neutral" media's double standards.

April 11, 2007 - 12:57 ET by CaringwhiteguyMatt, I've read her statement 4 or 5 times now. I believe two things give her cover. What gives her cover from the left is the inclusion of evangelicals in her critique. The other is that there are some grains of truth in what she says about both groups.

How do you know he is white? How do you know what race any of us are? You are assuming which is just as prejudicial as what Imus said. It is proven that Jessy and Sharpton are racist in the statements they have made.

April 11, 2007 - 10:43 ET by BlameTheMediaA black person can call another black "nigger" or whatever... but a white person cannot. This is sociologically established and has to do with, to put it simply, our slave history and everything since. It means something different when a white person calls a black person a derogatory name, a racial slur. It just does. It's not equal. Maybe you think it's not fair... but that's the way it is because we the white dominant race made it that way.
And calling someone a ho is calling them a whore. This is far more a women's issue than it is a racial issue. These athletic women in college were called whores. THAT is unacceptable no matter what color you are.
Blame - that would be fine
April 11, 2007 - 10:54 ET by Dee BunkBlame - that would be fine if we were talking about the other "N' word, but I never heard the word Nappy when I was young, it's a more recent term and has nothing to do with slavery or predjudice - it's a hair style for crying out loud. There is a band that call themsleves Nappy Roots. As far as Ho - that term also is post slavery and civli rights and also one made popular by African Americans. I don't know the context of Imus's remarks and I don't like him, but this is rediculous.

He can get away with it
April 11, 2007 - 13:15 ET by nkviking75Shrubber, remember, blacks can get away with saying "nappy" or the even-worse "n" word. It's complicated. Frankly, I didn't realize there was anything wrong with "nappy". I can certainly understand why the team is offended at "hoes".

April 11, 2007 - 10:58 ET by iveseenitallBTM:
So, in your view, right and wrong is relative to other factors. Liberal relativism is a large part of what's wrong with the left's thinking. I guess two wrongs make a right in your world. Justice should be blind, not based on other "conditions". In a civilized society, it is wrong to call people derogatory names, no matter who does it. It is a shame you can't see this. You've been brainwashed by the liberals, as have many "minorities" in the ghetto.

April 11, 2007 - 11:39 ET by connmanThis post is what I've been saying. I'm so tired of the doublestandard. Has anyone ever been to a Basketball practice? I have and they play Hip-Hop and rap all during warmups. You don't think these women bball players haven't heard much worse? I invite anyone of you to google the lyrics of main stream artists like 50 cent, Ludicris, and Eminem and read the lyrics of these guys and their message to women. You don't think these women know the lyrics? Please....Imus said something stupid, agreed, but according to all the published ratings no one's listening or watching him anyway! This guy calls his own wife a "Green Ho" what do you expect? Move on to what matters!
This garbage started in the 80s or later
April 11, 2007 - 11:31 ET by exLibThis idea that only if you are part of a certain group can you say anything you want about that group started around the 80s. The same time the movement to ban moral judgements started to take hold in schools.
in the 70s you had guys like Richard Pryor making jokes about everybody, before that Don Rickles used to insult everybody, even in the 70's Billy Crystal used to make what would now be considered racists jokes about blacks.
We have become an oversensative group of babies.
FYI, most people under the age of 25 or so call each other pimps and hos. White, Black or whatever. It's the vernacular of the age, as is pointed out on other posts on this site.
I work at a music college and it's all over.

Moral relativism
April 11, 2007 - 12:21 ET by iveseenitallIt's moral relativism. No absolutes, no judgments. This liberal garbage has been drummed into our kids for years. Problems come for the libs, however, when they try to cherry pick right and wrong, who can judge and who can't. It's the basis of P.C. Their arguments fall apart at this point and they are exposed for the hypocrites they are. Thank God it's finally happening.

Hardwood Ho's , a sad commentary!
April 11, 2007 - 15:15 ET by linkeroneI personally feel Mr. Imus made a terrible public mis-speak, but that is exactly what it was, nothing else! Today, with the " in you face messages" speared at us every second, from every direction, many of us get caught up in "Heat of the Moment" discussion, and may blurt out something that was not thought out, was not scripted, the consequences of which were not considered and the injury was unintended.
The Rutgers ho's of the hardwood need to accept the apology, and move on.. It never was about them individually, or as a team, It was nothing more than a satirical comment on the athletes of today, their tattoos, exaggerated hand talk, mussed hair, body piercings, sideways hats and bad boy / girl rap & tap. It's not about the team, it's a comment about a generation of discontents that willing prostitute themselves for their 15 minutes of fame!

I don't know how to respond
April 11, 2007 - 16:40 ET by radiofitz34I don't know how to respond to that ahusser. All I know is I don't play any rap or hip-hop on my show. I gladly play 70's soul music though and Ray Charles and Mills Brothers. That was classy music.
I know Imus definately blew it but that was 3 words in a brief moment. Rap is played repeatedly and often. Al Sharpton is a race bater. You can just see the reconstituted energy he gets from all this. I'd rather hear from Bill Cosby. He makes total sense but the black Americans (never mind this African-American BS/PC) won't listen to him.
That's why I put forth for your scrutiny, why most of the actual racism is created by blacks. It's also why many whites are just pissed off because blacks are literally hurting there own cause and making for more division rather than having us come together.
At least in the christian community, this is not as much of a problem. But that is not perfect either. In my case, I don't care what my skin color is. We all bleed red blood and God created us all.

April 11, 2007 - 17:30 ET by ahusserI was being facetious. but that's the problem, most whites don't really care (on most levels) what your skin color is. But blacks are always obsessed with color and race. A 'la O.J. Simpson, it wasn't an issue of murdering his wife but the trumped up racism of the detective. I have to be reminded of some mythical guilt I am supposed to be reminded of every year or every month about some minority which was oppressed by evil caucasians hundreds of years ago. This continuing cause for divisiveness is brought forth by the liberal press like flowers every spring. It's like the parade in Northern Ireland which gets the Protestants up in arms every year even though the event occured about 400 years ago. Basically I am not guilty about any of this and refuse to be treated as an evil entity.
