Our world is so screwed up right now. America, the king country of the world is fighting a war for profits in the Middle East with big prospects of expansion. Said war was built upon lies and deceit. That same king country, America, practices kidnapping and torture and even goes so far as to spy on it's own people all why claiming to be the land of the free and the brave. Seems like neither word truly describes this land. After all, how free or brave can this country be if it's letting a few stupid words offend it so. I think it's so sad that with everything else wrong in the world and in our own country, Imus demonstrating how stupid and racist he really is should even make headlines. It's IMUS, people! When has he been the paragon of virtue everyone seems to think he should be? And WHO CARES?? The guys in the White House lie to us and we give a crap about Imus? We're seeing journalists imprisoned, citizens investigated without warrants and more and all we can do for a news cycle or two is scream for Imus to lose his show? Taking away Imus' show is just as bad as imprisoning someone for dissenting against a government. In Egypt there's a blogger in jail because of what he said in his blog. Imus losing his show because of something he said on it would be the financial equivalent to imprisonment. Let him be as offensive as he wants. YOU have the power to watch or not. So, choose not to watch his damn show if you're offended. Why do you need to remove his show from existence? I think what he said was stupid, too. BUT WHO CARES? He's not even the size of a scale on the immensely bigger fish we still have to fry. Besides. They're just words, folks. Grow up. Seriously.
