Imus, again.

Gabcast! polyblog #29 - Imus Strikes Again

During an on-air conversation Monday about the arrests of suspended Dallas Cowboys cornerback Adam "Pacman" Jones, Imus asked, "What color is he?" Told by sports announcer Warner Wolf that Jones is "African-American," Imus responded: "There you go. Now we know."

And as usual, the dumb-dumbs who populate the soundbyte world went on a spree....."IMUS IS A RACIST....IMUS SHOULD BE FIRED!" Forner Guradian Angel head-turned talk show host Curis Silwa wants Imus to retire. Of course this guy, who is more racist than the I-man will EVER be, used to have the slot Imus has now, how we know how unbiased HIS ass is....

Your friendly, neighborhood polybi has a few comments of his own.....(roll tape)

Now this morning, Imus explained the segment, with a point I had not thought of.....

There you go. He's done with it, but I am sure this will continue. One hopes that Citidel/ABC and RFD hang with him.

As for Mr. Jones, I have this for him....if you think Don Imus is a racist, do us a favor: STOP GIVING HIM AMMUNTION!

Damn.

Imus Shoots, Scores!

Now, if you notice I am an African-American man. But for the love of God, am I the only person here who sees taht Imus is saying? Pacman Jones, name any rap artist, these people continuously shaming the race by thier outrageous behavior.

Is Imus racist? Let me ask this....why do the numbnuts continue to give guys like Imus the ammo? Dearest, Lord, when will we as African-American stop with the foolishness.

Now Imus is on the hotseat again. This time, I'm not buyin'. It wasn't racist what he siad, it is just a fact. The majority of Black men and women lead honest, quiet lives. Its the PacMan Jones' of the world that give us the....no pun intended...black eye.

Let's hope Imus can manuever his way away from this. And Mr. Jones.....just go away, please. Just go the f*ck away...

Gay Marriage Proponents Launch New Ad Campaign.

OAKLAND, CA -- A controversial new advertisement in favor of same-sex marriage is raising eyebrows among conservative officials.

The commercial depicts a bride running into a series of obstacles on her way to the altar before asking, "What if you couldn't marry the one you love?"

The ad's maker said that an appeal based on emotion, rather than legality, is a real change for the same-sex marriage movement.

"It doesn't really work if you only convince them you should have rights. You have to have them understand who you are and the pain it's caused," Equality California Institute representative Geoff Kors said. "It can hurt people and not exclude people from something as fundamental as marriage in our society."

Conservative officials have decried the ad.

"Anti-marriage activists can spend millions of dollars, but nothing on earth can stop Californians from voting to protect everything about marriage for one man and one woman," said Randy Thomasson of the Campaign for Children and Families.

The Best of Russert

They have sweated beneath the same sun,
Looked up in wonder at the same moon,
And wept when it was all done

For bein' done too soon,
For bein' done too soon.
For bein' done..........

John Fund of the Wall Street Journal was on Laura Ingraham's show this morning, talking about the bombshell, according to our own No Quarter author Bud White.

Bob Beckel, Democratic analyst for Fox News, reported on TV already that a "bombshell" is coming out tomorrow.

VIDEO BELOW. Here are written reports to date (and I will ADD MORE as they come in) and I am adding the DEVASTATING electoral college projections up at HillBuzz that further underscore Obama's unelectability. Obama is toast.

John Fund, Wall Street Journal:

"Indeed, rumors are swirling on the campaign trail that a new video will soon surface featuring Mrs. Obama appearing on a panel with radical speakers during which she makes more controversial statements."

Bob Beckel on Fox News, via HillBuzz blog:

he has been told by numerous people,(enough and in a way that convinced him) that a bombshell will be dropping tomorrow about Michele Obama.

The Friends turned white and asked what it might bewas it worse than a college thesis? Bob saidOh yes, in a BIG way. He said that the Repubs were behind it and it was dumb because it meant that Mrs. Clinton would be the nominee

.

READ THAT ONE AGAIN: "it meant that Mrs. Clinton would be the nominee

"

I AM PUTTING THE VIDEO BELOW THE FOLD TO LESSEN STRESS ON THE SERVER.

All this comes in the wake of this story from the AP:

The Associated Press has just filed this lead to its primary-day story:

"Barack Obama effectively clinched the Democratic presidential nomination Tuesday, based on an Associated Press tally of convention delegates, becoming the first black candidate ever to lead his party into a fall campaign for the White House."

Obama needs 2,118 delegates to clinch the nomination. NBC delegate counter Chuck Todd is at this moment putting him about 30 delegates short. "There's no need to jump the gun," he said on MSNBC.

New superdelegate endorsements for Obama have been trickling in today, with more expected as the polls approach closing time in Montana and South Dakota.

Now Clinton is expected to acknowledge that Obama has enough votes to clinch, but, interestingly, is NOT.....repeat....NOT pulling out of the race.

We doth live interesting times.
