Tucker's Show says IMUS SUSPENDED FOR TWO WEEKS!
from MSNBC SHOW!

He NEEDS TO BE FIRED! Or, it's like giving Chimpy a "suspension" because he needs a "Time Out."

2. I'm just glad the gov't didn't step in to silence him.
Just think what would happen if we started down the road where the government could step in and remove someone from the air any time someone was offended by what they heard on TV or radio. That's a scary world to think about. The fundie crowd might get their wish and have all kinds of shows yanked off the air, depending upon who decides what is "offensive" and what is "hate speech."

It's fine when a private entity like MSNBC does it. And I won't be missing him because I don't listen to him anyway.

I just hope we can consistently keep the gov't out of these issues.

Ban the FCC.

4. What a stupid comparision
You really can't compare a stupid racial slur to Bush killing about a million people in a war that he lied to get into. That's just overkill and unrealistic.

7. Don't you have t he "Pink Ribbon" for Breast Cancer Supporters and you
don't understand that Imus dissed Black Athletes and Women?

You think Imus gives a F**k about WOMEN with BREAST CANCER? NO! he cares more about his money for his Ranch and the Products he's selling. :shrug: How could you be so INSENSITIVE?
