Don Imus is expected to be sarcastic...otherwise he'd be in some old age home picking his nose. Have you seen that guy? He looks like he's gonna topple over! I think with regard to the remarks about the "nappy headed hoes" that got him in plenty hot water, you can make the very weak argument that he was not specifically speaking about black women since there are a number of white women on the team. BUT, I have never heard of a white woman's hair being refered to as nappy so his defence, to me, is completely trashable. With respect to the Pacman comment. Well, Don Imus does say that the whole thing was taken out of context and what he meant was because Pacman is African American he is being picked on. Well then Mr. Genius should have made this point clear at the time he said it. If it was Tiger Woods he was talking about I think there would have been more of an uproar. Pacman hasn't done himself any favours by continually getting himself in trouble....
In short, if anyone thinks Don is a GENIUS...I shudder to think of who else they hold in high esteem? Hitler perhaps, that complete psycho Mugabe who loathes white people, how about Idi Amin who threw out all Indians from Uganda? These are all people who made generalizations about a group of people based on their skin colour...I hardly call that genius...thats idiocy (and ignorance) of the highest order.
