Don Imus is an idiot,
Not just for what he said, but for the way he’s allowed himself to be bullied by the likes of Al Sharpton and Jessie Jackson. Since when are these bozo’s the moral arbiters of anything? Let’s see. The Reverend Al falsely accuses a white man of raping a black girl and has yet to apologize for it. And who can forget the Rev’s “white interloper” remarks? He later apologized for saying it, but never was it suggested that he retire from his social activism, yet he has no qualms about calling for Imus’ retirement.
About JJ. Fathered a child out of wedlock, referred to Jews as Hymies and called NYC “Hymietown”. Yeah, he’s a real example of upstanding, moral conduct.
If you want to hear someone using language like “ho’s” and other infantile words, just turn on any hip-hop/rap radio station. Or just look up the lyrics to some of their music, like E-40’s crap called “Captain save a hoe”. Where are Rev. Al and JJ on this entire culture devoted to degrading women? Oh that’s right, I forgot, the rappers aren’t white guys.
For the record, Imus is an idiot for making the comments he made, but he apologized and now it’s over. He should stay on the radio.

I agree that he seems to suffer from very poor judgement. But I bet millions of Americans out there are thinking "Hey, I'd get fired from my job for exercising this sort of poor judgement". I have no sympathy for the Don today. My admiration goes to people like Frank Zappa, who were outrageous, never backed down and maybe paid the price for the cages they rattled.

Everyone keeps comparing Imus' language (favorably?) to that of various rap and hip hop acts. Perhaps he has a future in that field.
