Don Imus says what everyone else is thinking

[Aunt Jemima]

I just wish he would stop making excuses and backing down for his very truthful comments

------
Don Imus is defending a remark he made about the arrests of suspended Dallas Cowboys cornerback Adam Jones, saying he was trying to "make a sarcastic point.

During a conversation Monday about the arrests of Jones, Imus asked, "What color is he?" Told by a sports announcer that Jones is "African-American," Imus responded: "There you go. Now we know."

This is a great example of america's double standards. Niggers can be racist as hell and no one says anything, it is entertainment. But if a white person (Don Imus and Michael Richards) says anything related to race (even the comments that aren't racist) they get fired and the are horrible people. Charlie Sheen called Denise Richards a nigger and he got in some shit for it.

Any negative remark can be added to the word 'nigger' to make a proper sentence.

We can name Don Imus the official Chimp Out Radio Personality?

I don't care if he backtracked, at least he said it and it's out there for others to go "Yep, that's true."
