5. Imus:
"I want everybody who's calling me a racist, everybody who's calling for me to be fired ... that's an ill-informed decision."

Is he really that clueless?

9. it's heating up
i didn't come here to get slapped around. it started when the guy from ebony magazine said that

his magazine was doing articles on sickle cell anemia while imus was doing used car commercials.

11. He told Sharpton that he could raise more money for Sickle cell than Sharpton
Al said, "After what you said,, I don't think so"

This is reminding me of Trent Lott when he was going on BET trying to save his job.

17. Yes he is
I'm not sure now if his firing is the best thing. They seem to be ganging up on him.

18. Here come the apologists.
Oh, he's done so much for sick kids. He's done this and that.

That's not the issue. He could be the most giving person on Earth, but what he said was racist.

Hell, even John Wayne Gacy entertained sick kids.

20. What's Interesting
is that he says he completely understands how repugnant his words were but when asked what would be a suitable measure of accountability, he has no answer.
