_________________________________ True story! Chuck

saw parts of it too. I have to say that I agree with Kallend that Imus was a jerk. But disagree with the whining about him losing his job. Then he apologized publicly. With that, it should have been over. But now, after seeing how the 'girls' and their coaches are playing on this, I have to now say "WAAAHHHHHHHHHH". I also think these girls are being led down this path by someone with an agenda also. If they choose to do so, they could be, right now, celebrating their hard fought victory and not even giving this any more time or thought. I always thought the precedent set by "Little Timmy vs the State of Michigan" in the use of the "Sticks and Stones" defense was still strong in the country. "Words really do hurt" Yup, suck it up cupcake, waaaahhhh "We have the freedom of speech but, with the freedom comes responsibility for what we say" Damn straight - totally agree. He made a public crack, he made a public apology - all that's left is he works to avoid it in the future. I think public humiliation, loss of job, being shaved bald and neutered,, is over the line. ___________________________________ You make some very good points. I guess, I really let that news segment get me. Maybe, 'cause I've been there. Come to think of it, everyone's had their 15-minutes in the limelight... how long do they have to drag it out. Imus apologised, everbody has had their say... game over. Hell, I've been called some ugly things in the past and probably everyone on these forums has too! We lived through it. I probably couldn't even remember who called me what. Now, it's time to see how tough everyone is. Time, is a great healer... let the healing begin! Good job rehmwa! Chuck

Melinda is just plaind good! I was kinda' surprised that 'beat-box boy' did as gooood as he did. Yeah, he did real good. Sanjaya needs to leave. Chuck

I've had a Dodge P/U since 2001 and I've never had a better truck. You just can't go wrong getting a Dodge! Chuck

You couldn't be more right, my friend. However, it's alive and well today, even in the good ol' melting pot. __________________________________ Sad to say but, you are right. I saw the evening news and they had the girl's basketball team on. One by one, they spoke. You could see in the eyes of women who hold a 3.0 or better GPA, women who are going to be teachers and doctors, these women who only wanted to celebrate a hard fought victory, you could see in their eyes, the hurt because of someone's spoken words. Words really do hurt. We have the freedom of speech but, with that freedom comes responsibility for what we say. Chuck

Racism in any form... sucks! Chuck

_________________________________ No tellin'. Ol' gramps is definately insecure about his sexuality. What scares me is, they are not the only hate group we have. Chuck

Maybe, they are trying to tell us something!? Chuck

____________________________________ Is it any better said in 'private'? Imus is gioing to apologise in person to the ladies he insulted. Is that acceptable? Or, does it depend on the person making the apology? We've been through this with Jimmy the Greek, Howard Cosell, Mel Gibson and countless others. Sharpton is what he is fighting against. Jesse Jackson has said things he had to come-back and apologise for. We're all guilty of it. Those parents can be pissed and have a right to be but, you can't let something like that eat you up... move-on. Chuck Chuck

Seems to work ok for our cocaine snorting, drunk driving, awol combat avoiding president. ____________________________________ Seems to work quite well for many 'special' folks. Chuck

_____________________________________ I agree! Why, should Imus lose his livlihood over this? His show, is a 'comedy' show. He satarizes everything and everyone. When Al Sharpton lied to police, years ago, he wanted and recieved forgiveness. Look at him now! Some Christian he is! He wants Imus' job and his career. We've all forgiven Mel Gibson and others who have made racial comments... why not Imus? I am not condoning racial slurs, bigotry or racism. To me, Al Sharpton is a reverse bigot and racist. I think, Sharpton has an 'axe to grind' and is taking it out on Imus. Imus has apologised and is going to apologise directly to the ladies he insulted. Let it lie down. Chuck

__________________________________ I think, you are correct! Ignore them... maybe, they'll just go away. Chuck

Imus apologised... let's move on. I am not saying that what he said was not wrong... it was. Everyone sticks their foot in their mouth at least once. Al Sharpton has no room to talk. Check-out hisrecord! This guy, has lied to police with a trumped-up story about a young black girl being sexually assaulted by white men. He has a record as a dope dealer and etc. Now, he's found Jesus and that makes him better than anyone else? Chuck

After all Britney Spears IS young and naive! ___________________________________ Yeah... right! Chuck But we could get like Cristina Agulera to make out with Angelina Jolie . . . that would be a good A&E story . . . _____________________________________ Aw yeah... like, that would really be hot! Chuck

_____________________________________ That's interesting to know yet, not surprising. Thanks for the in-put. Chuck

After all Britney Spears IS young and naive! ___________________________________ Yeah... right! Chuck

_________________________________ Yes, it should die... a quick death! I'm afraid, as long as A&E, chooses to air the program from time to time, this thread will rear it's ugly head. Chuck

___________________________________ Wow! Me either! I couldn't find it in my 'Funk & Wagnall's'! Chuck

__________________________________ prolly not! Chuck Bearded Claim? WTF is that? I have heard of a bearded Tit . . . here's an example . . . _______________________________ that's a horrible visual!

__________________________________ prolly not! Chuck

_________________________________ Isn't that a condescending comment toward women? Chuck

You didn't, you were the last post in line when I started my reply. As far as dragging them off by the hair well that was what I ment when I said restraint hold. __________________________________________ Ahhhh... Chuck
