For me the interesting part isn't whether Rush is racist or not, but it's the "Imus Offense". The Imus offense is when you say or play offensive things on a radio talk show which, according to Imus oppenents, isn't covered by artistic license as, say, rap music is. So, "Barak The Magic Negro" is offensive I'd guess to people and Rush played it. Should we now hang him as per the Imus Offense? Or is the Imus Offense really not about saying offensive things on the radio? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Deploy Web Applications Quickly across the enterprise with ColdFusion MX7 & Flex 2 Free Trial http://www.adobe.com/products/coldfusion/flex2/?sdid=RVJU Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Community/message.cfm/messageid:235258 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.5
