Sort of a thought on Imus
All this talk about Imus ... a "national" media personality makes a racist remark about private citizens ... and suddenly the "defense of free speech" is big time covered ...

Wasn't it not too long ago that Dems tried to point out that Condaleeza Rice was lying through her teeth in front of the Senate to protect Bush ... and the Republicans and the media tried to paint the Dems as being racist, instead of what reality was showing, that the Dems were exposing her lies, not calling her names ...
