He's old enough for Social Security! Perhaps he'll try to live on it.

At least he has an attack by Condi to add to his resume.

Back to the ranch for a while it seems.

Nothing a bullet couldn't cure...

Of course, there's usually some jail time associate with such extreme actions...

Whoever says "perception is reality" is daft. It's merely an abstraction, and often not a very good one.

Personally, I look at idiots in those ghetto rigs and shake my head a bit. Most of them probably spend more on that retardmobile than they do their own place of residence. Driving down the streets of some of the rougher neighborhoods, you see places that look like downtown Beirut with these endless lines of utterly pristine tricked out vehicles.

I'm never sure whether I should laugh or cry.

I could have told you that years ago. If ignorance could be burned, we'd have an endless fuel supply.

What really gets me is how many people are proud of there ignorance, want to hold on to it with both hands, and want to pass it on to their kids (or, if they had their way, everyone's kids). One loudmouth on the radio is not the real problem, the thousands of learning-proof listeners are.

Imus may get the last laugh. He's going to sue CBS for breech of contract. It seems there was a clause in that contract where CBS acknowledged that the Imus show had controversial content, and furthermore that they *desired* that controversial content.

Sounds like he has a leg to stand on then...

Definitely a leg to stand on while firmly planting the other leg right up against CBS's kiester.

Should be rather amusing.

It's more than that.

Apparently, there was a clause in his contract that guaranteed him a warning before being fired. I think - assuming it's true, and assuming CBS can't show that a previous warning was issued - that this clause will cause CBS even more trouble than the "controversial content" clause, since it's a little less open to interpretation.

All one has to do is to Google Al Sharpton and read the "Wikipedia" page, and try not to shake your head too hard. This guy is amazing. He must be made of teflon, considering the number of causes he has jumped on, and later slid off when it was discovered that; Tawana Brawley was not raped, the Duke Univ. LaCrosse players were acquited, the loan Co. he was hawking was ripping off Black customers, etc.. Read for yourself. I would still like to know which Church he actually preaches at these days? Anything else I would have to say about this "man", would get me banned not only from here, but probably from any "KKK" board on the 'net. They would claim that I was being too hard on him. This guy is a "poverty pimp", who plays to a certain audience, and not the mainstream "I work for what I have" Black population, whose main concern is "will my lawn green up after this late season freeze we just had? how about the the other flowering plants, will they make it?"

Many of my Black friends and neighbors hate him with a passion. They say that he, and others like him are what is holding the Black community back.

Imus and Sharpton are 2 shades of the same scum. Imus makes a living thru insulting people and the propogation of ignorance; Sharpton makes a living being a phony superhero to people who either 1) really need a bonafide hero or 2) need to get off their keister and help themselves.

They are both bottom feeders that prey on people who are either too ignorant, or too lazy, or truly unable to help themselves.

They deserve each other, and the fact that either one took the other down bothers me not one bit. To me it is not about freedoms or liberty or anything else so grand, it is one scumbag beating up another. I'm OK with that. In fact, I like it and want more of the same.

I think in taking down Imus, Sharpton has earned a shot at the title and we should have a big Main Event where we get to see him and Limbaugh in a cage match for all the marbles.
