Satire
Because life in these United States is as close to Heaven as God sees fit to permit, liberals and the main stream media are at a loss to find vitally important issues with which to consistently excite voters and news consumers.
As a result, America’s leftist politicians and media have wasted more than a week and untoward quantities of ink and broadband on “inflammatory” comments made by an aging cowboy-hippie who purports to be a nationally syndicated radio DJ.
“Purports” is the appropriate verb, since no living soul has ever actually listened to Don Imus in the morning, or at any other time of the day or night for that matter.
With the exception, that is, of a 10-second interlude in which Imus called Rutgers’ basketball players “nappy-headed hos.”
That 10 seconds of edgy satire has escalated into “Breaking News Headlines” that have forced the president of the United States and several candidates for his job to weigh in on the ultra-sensitive topic.
In addition, “nappy-headed hos” almost toppled both the NBC and CBS networks, and has ratcheted racial tensions to a level not seen since those who pulverized Rodney King were acquitted.
All of this over a silly, non-story that should have ended when the I-man apologized.
However, Imus can be faulted for not apologizing to the Black Caucus on Capitol Hill.
Moreover, it is rumored that the I-Man has yet to atone for his sins by sending a dozen flowers to the grave of Jackie Robinson, the black player who crashed baseball’s race barrier with the Brooklyn Dodgers 60 years ago.
Better get with it, Imus, because the Robinson anniversary will soon be history.
Worse of all, while groveling before the Shakedown King of New York City, AKA the Reverend Al Sharpton, Imus had the temerity to use the bitterly racist slur “you people.”
Better send two dozen flowers and a bottle of expensive wine, I-man!
The I-man’s arrogant, flagrant, and willful use of free speech has sent mainstream media and liberal politicians scurrying to altars of political correctness in order to worship before, and appease, the god of diversity and tolerance.
A live human sacrifice was deemed necessary, and Don Imus seemed to be the logical candidate to quell the pagan lust for eradicating free speech; thus, the kerfuffle cost the I-man his gigs on radio and television.
Meanwhile, a very serious story has been all but been ignored.
Crystal Gail Mangum is the young black stripper who attempted to ruin the lives of three Duke University students by falsely accusing the three of rape.
On April 12, the attorney general of North Carolina came forward and flatly declared the three young men “innocent of these charges.”
In other words, Crystal Gail Mangum is a liar.
A damnable liar who people like Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson, and other race-baiting shysters have exploited to bolster the notion that African-Americans are still powerless victims of rampant racism at the hands of white people.
The truth is that Crystal Gail Mangum’s despicable lies and behavior have done far more damage to the black community than Don Imus could even hope to accomplish in a year of dopey “nappy-headed ho’s” gaffes.
So just what are the “reverends” doing to assure that Mangum’s rape fraud does not become a stereotype of black women stalking white college athletes for cash dividends?
Perhaps these “Black Angels” are working to assure that Mangum is punished to the full extent of the law so that legitimate claims will continue to be taken seriously?
Not a chance!
For his part, the Reverend Jesse Jackson sees the rotting carcass of Don Imus as god’s answer to his prayers for more black faces and voices in the media.
In fact, Jackson urged MSNBC to dump the I-man and to hire black talent in his stead.
MSNBC appears to have complied, at least with respect to dumping Imus.
Not to be outdone when it comes to milking the racism cash cow, the Reverend Al Sharpton is licking his chops at the prospect of legal action that would redistribute funds from the Imus Cattle Ranch for Kids with Cancer to more worthy black causes.
Like the Al Sharpton Happiness and Retirement Annuity, Al?
The bottom line: Triangulating alleged hate speech into employment and financial opportunities is obviously more important to Jackson and Sharpton than working to preserve the dignity and integrity of the black community.
Sad, but true.

So yes, Crystal Gail Mangum is a nappy headed ho, and I can understand why the women’s basketball team would be irritated with being associatiated with the likes of Crystal Gail Mangum.

Seeing him leave for work at 10AM, one had to wonder where he worked and what it took to get a job like that.
It is clear to me now, after taking on that stop and route in Teaneck Englewood just a day after the Teaneck Riots (caused by a kid pulling a modified blank gun on a Teaneck officer who blew him away, that this guy has no honor, and is a MOB Ruler.
Crystal Gail Mangum will not be charged because she actually believes her 5 versions of her lies.
Thus she is a sociaopath and needs to be committed so that society is kept safe from her classic Feminista Sociopathy.
Say her name, say it often, lest the world ever forgets her infamy.
Say it until the Feministas in earshot scream RAPE!
My girlfriend, who si Black, says Mangum needs to be locked up for trying to destroy three women’s sons, and the ugly MOB of College Women at Rutgers who were protesting need to put the Rap Stars out of business before Don Imus is put off the air.
My Girl, she thinks clearer than I do. This is why she is not a Feminist.
You should see the greif she gets from other Black women for refusing to be a victim and blaming everyone else for her being black.
She for some strange reason just refuses to be the Whore for these Race Pimping Mob Rulers.
I suppose the Gonzman has it right.
Because she is able to think.
It probably has something to do with her living in the real world, with a real job, dealing with all sorts of people all day long. While the fodder for the Race Pimps and MOB Rulers have no real life experience and live shelterd with their TV’s because they have no job because welfare handles it.
People can only be what they know.
This worries me, because I am getting to the point that I do not want to know anything anymore.
