Don Imus, Rutgers Girls Basketball Team

Radio talk show host Don Imus calls the ladies basketball team "nappy headed hoes." Apparently Imus didn't go for their tattoos and felt they lacked femininity. Imus, known as the I-man, got the plug pulled on him by CBS and MSNBC who dropped his radio show.

Snoop Dogg and a host of other black rappers commonly refer to women using the exact same terminology. Certainly I do not condone any man speaking to or about women in such a fashion. Yet the hip-hop hypocrites are quite comical to behold when they attack a white man for modeling their very own originated messages full of sexist and racist innuendos.

The Black Caucus leaders, Congress persons, and ministers who are speaking forth have shown themselves to be quite articulate, equitable, and somewhat forgiving. Undoubtedly the African American community could use their leadership year round and not just when a white racial slur surfaces. Perhaps the New Black Panthers and Nation of Islam, along with the above mentioned leadership, can target their efforts toward the predominately black hip-hop heads spewing obscenities across our radio airwaves.

It's always good to start in your own backyard among your own folks before hammering others at a distance. I salute the initiative of Rutgers University and the African American leadership mentioned above to apply pressure to Imus, CBS, and MSNBC. They have proven they have the power to change society when they come together. The nation and media are listening.

Don Imus issued a personal apology as did Michael Richards, best known as Seinfeld's Kramer, for their racial rants. Richards went balistic on two black young men using the N-word and various epithets last November at the Laugh Factory, a famous Los Angeles comedy club.

Imus and Richards will have a lot of time alone to do some much needed soul-searching, as their racial slurs suddenly collapsed their careers.

Racial tensions and hatred run deep in America, the land of the free and home of the brave. They surface at the most unusual times and places. Thankfully, when swiftly identified and dealt with we can overcome them and send a message to society that such slurs will not be tolerated by the mainstream media.

We all need a lot more love, understanding, and consideration of one another. As Jesus said, "As you would have men to do unto you, do likewise to them" (Luke 6:31). If you would not like to hear someone address you or one of your family members in a particular way, than be sure that you yourself don't speak in a similar derogatory manner toward others.

It is time we learn how to forgive, leave peaceably, conduct ourselves honorably, and uphold each other kindly in the spirit of brotherhood. Most importantly, let us guard our hearts and watch our words more closely.

Nancy Pelosi If You Had Been President On 9/11/2001, What Would You Have Done

All the World leaders and leaders of America that cared about the USA were in agreement that Iraq should be attack and now four years later we are in the middle of a civil war that no one could have imagined. A Civil war has erupted because the leader of the Muslim world by the name of Muhammad died so suddenly that there was confusion as to who would be the next ruler of the Islamic state. To this day, the Islamic world is divided because of this issue (Shia vs. Sunni). President Pelosi now has to decide to cut and run or stay in Iraq and finish the job of bringing freedom to the 75 percent of the Iraqis that desire freedom.

It does not matter how many peaceful Muslims there may be, they are no protection from the terrorist Muslim leaders and what they are fanatically bent on doing - by their own pronouncements - killing all of us "infidels." the peaceful Muslims are afraid to lend a hand. What would you do if the choice was shut up or die? In countries without freedom you will be killed.

So who are we at war with? There is no way we can honestly respond that it is anyone other than the Muslim terrorist Trying to be politically correct and avoid verbalizing this conclusion can well be fatal. There is no way to win if you do not clearly recognize and articulate who you are fighting. We can definitely lose this war, and as anomalous as it may sound, the major reason we can lose is that so many of us simply do not fathom the answer to the second question: What does losing mean? It would appear that a great many of us think that losing the war means hanging our heads, bringing the troops home and going on about our business, like post Vietnam.

This is as far from the truth as one can get. What losing really means is: We would no longer be the premier country in the world. The attacks will not subside, but rather will steadily increase. Remember, the terrorist want us dead, not just quiet. If they had just wanted us quiet, they would not have produced an increasing series of attacks against us over the past 18 years. The plan is clearly for terrorists to attack us, until we are neutered and submissive to them. If we lose the war, our production, income, exports and way of life will all vanish as we know it. The Muslim terrorist fully know what is riding on this war, and therefore are completely committed to winning, at any cost. We'd better know it too, and be likewise committed to winning at any cost!! Thank you President Pelosi and our great Soldiers, I am so proud that "DEFEAT" is one word that you and I do not use. I AM WITH YOU ALL THE WAY EVEN IF YOUR LAST NAME WERE BUSH OR KERRY OR MRS. CLINTON.
