You're Not The Boss Of Me

I just had to say something about this whole situation with Don Imus. No doubt, he made a huge mistake making the women's basketball team of Rutger's University the brunt of a bad joke, but did he really need to be fired over it? I don't like Don Imus, but he has truly been scapegoated for saying things that others say all the time without incidence. Both the Rev. Al Sharpton and the Rev. Jessie Jackson are forever singling out white celebrities who overstep their bounderies with their negative language, but fail to hold accountable black people who do the same to their own race and culture. If you ask me, it's bigotry in reverse. In any event, I won't miss Don Imus because I was never a fan to begin with, but he will surely follow in the footsteps of Howard Stern (the radio jock, not Anna Nicole's boyfriend) and Opie and Anthony and get a very lucrative deal on satellite radio where he can insult every one equally five mornings a week.
