Don Imus what is wrong with you?

donimus.jpgDon Imus apparently doesn’t get it. On his radio show today he had this exchange with Warner Wolf:

Wolf: “Defensive back Adam ‘Pacman’ Jones, recently signed by the Cowboys. Here’s a guy suspended all of 2007 following a shooting in a Vegas night club.”

Imus: “Well, stuff happens. You’re in a night club, for God’s sake. What do you think’s gonna happen in a night club? People are drinking, they’re doing drugs. There are women there, and people have guns. So, there, go ahead.”

Wolf: “He’s also been arrested six times since being drafted by Tennessee in 2005.”

Imus: “What color is he?”

Wolf: “He’s African-American.”

Imus: “Well, there you go. Now we know.”

What in the hell is he thinking? How is this not blatantly racist? This guy is lucky to have a job after they made so much noise about his comments regarding the Rutgers women’s basketball team. Wait until they get a hold of this one. We don’t even see where he was trying to make a joke.

    Ron Burgandy would say that was a bad choice.

    Maybe someone will FINALLY put that mummy back in his tomb.

    Imus says what most of America is thinking?

    I think Don Imus should change his last name to “I’mamess?”

    I like Imus. Leave him alone already. It was taken out of context, and Micah just used it out of context as well. None of the black members of his show took any issue with what he said, so you white breed, corn eating honkeys need to slow it down already.

Got something to say?
