    i want to know the same thing.

    he acts like he was voted spokes person for all affican-americans in the united states.

    im sure people that were offended by the comment would have let it go. i dont really think it was necesary for him to step in and handle the problem.

    Don Imus has raised thousands and thousands of money for study for Autistic little ones, Raised the advantages the households of infantrymen killed in action receive, Raised thousands and thousands of money for a medical institution in Texas it really is for the prime medical take care of amputations gained in the Iraq conflict which the authorities did not do. He has a camp for little ones with maximum cancers which he operates at his own value and time. Al Sharpton lives off the community doing no longer something yet rabble rousing which led to a lack of existence in a unmarried case after he prepared a revolt. yet another guy became accused of a rape that took him ten years to practice his innocence and affected his total existence. Sharpton became ordered to pay $350,000 which I doubt he did. My ideas are with Don Imus and that i favor him nicely.

    Ah.. but he & the Rev. Jesse Johnson are the emperors of black people!

    If the N word is uttered.. they'll be there to get media attention & cause controversy.
