Don Imus: Poster Child For Dumbelievable
According to TMZ and the recording in their post, Don Imus made a comment that will be deemed racist no matter how he tries to spin it. This will be worse than what he did before.
While talking about “Pacman” Jones getting into legal trouble Don asked, “What color is he?”
Someone says, “He is African American.”
What I guess is Don Imus says, “Well there you go.”
You can’t really spin or explain that can you?
Wow. Dumb. Stupid. Dumbelievable. This one will get ugly I think. The only thing that may save him is the country’s low attention span and that this is someone with legal troubles not a group of female college basketball players minding their own business.
Al Sharpton has already mobilized his track suit wardrobe. Does he still wear those?
UPDATE: Don Imus says he was being sarcastic. I’m glad that it took him a day to decide that but it won’t be bought. But this is not grabbing the national attention it did before.
Someone on the radio said that this comment wasn’t pushed as hard as the first by the same group because they don’t want “race” to be an issue during the Presidential Race. I find this comment to be worse than the first and surprising it hasn’t whipped different groups into a frenzy.
And in the clips I hear, Imus sounds drunk, very tired or that he has had a stroke. He would put me to sleep.
