Obama: Fire Imus Obama First White House Contender to Call for Imus' Firing Over Racial Slur"I understand MSNBC has suspended Mr. Imus," Obama told ABC News, "but I would also say that there's nobody on my staff who would still be working for me if they made a comment like that about anybody of any ethnic group. And I would hope that NBC ends up having that same attitude."

I’m thinking we’re looking at President McCain and maybe I can finally get rid ot this tagline!
Matt is fast. He watches this site.
Great going!
What a transparent, incurable hypocrite the O-guy is.
Sanctimonious blow hard hypocrite. He should fire his own sorry ass for being a member of the Trinity Hate House for 20 years.
..."but I would also say that there's nobody on my staff who would still be working for me if they made a comment like that about anybody of any ethnic group. And I would hope that NBC ends up having that same attitude."
Put up or shut up Barry.
good job!
Great point! Imus was dancing on egg shells today about anything Obama “ I hope he can get out of this and get on with his campaign” He folded like a cheap camera. Grow some balls “I” man Give the rev the same treatment, I say.
CongRATulations and good work!
Good work
Touche.
Great job. Once it’s on Drudge, everyone sees it!
I don’t see it on drudge.
Applause.
What the heck. Send it to Imus and see if he has any testosterone left to hammer obamarama!
More than 'hear', this pastor works on Obama's campaign. By hiring this 'preacher', Barry Hussein is paying for racism.
It’s funny, I made this point about Imus just yesterday on freep. Good, I’m glad others still remember.
However, this link doesn’t work, brings you back to ‘choose forum’. ?
Bump ... and an observation.
I’m beginning to think this speech may turn out to be a big mistake.
I know Obama felt he had to do something to limit the damage ... but now he has just provided a limitless supply of quotes and fodder for keeping this story alive.
He might have been better off just keeping quiet and hoping it would blow over.
What tha....it’s not on Drudge’s page anymore.
Give it a minute. I notice sometimes things disappear when the page is being rearranged.
Can you please post a link to the story on Drudge?
Thanks
Drudge just took it down. I am not sure what is up with that, maybe he is redoing his banner?
Drudge probably took it off thinking it may hurt Obama.
Drudge seems to be an Obama fan.
Or at least someone who wants to see Hildabeast defeated for good.
Great work.
Clinton has stalemated him into the primary. He’ll win enough delegates to stay in the race, but the damage is so severe that both know they are toast going into the general.
If Imus were black, would Obama had called for Imus’ head?
Here’s what is so great about this, and why Hillary ought to be enshrined in bronze forever - She’s managed to take every race-baiting bastard out there down with Obama.
Rush went over it this AM, the idea of ‘bargaining’. As a black man, I won’t make you feel guilty about sins you never committed, but are attributed to you nonetheless, if you don’t hold my race against me. Jesse Jackson and the rest are ‘confronters’ - using rage and public sentiment to hold you hostage. Pay the ransom or will out you for the racist you probably aren’t.
The ENTIRE shakedown industry, along with every pseudo-Christian-Madras black church espousing ‘black value system’ based ‘theologies’ has been laid open to prime-time media scrutiny.
95% of the racism in the United States emanates from the Black Community, be it Muslim or Christian.
The equivalent of Trinity Church could not exist for long were it to go on in a white church of any sort, including a satanic one.
I wonder why he took it down. It’s a good story, and shows Obama’s inconsistency.
I man is permanently denutted.
Great balls of fire. What now Barry?
You are right, it’s gone completely.
If Drudge is fast, Obama’s campaign seems to be a little faster. Guarantee you someone was on the phone about that one in a NY minute.
It’s not there anymore.
It's not. I went there right after seeing this thread and it was there. I went to the link, read the story, and when I went back to Drudge the link was gone.
It may not be on Drudge anymore ... but it’s on the front page of Foxnews.com now. :-)
Cool, Then Hannity will probably harp on it today.
O’Reilly probably taped his show already so maybe tomorrow he’ll talk about it.
Obama said he appeared once on Imus' show two years ago, and "I have no intention of returning."
Yeah, Imus was beyond the pale, he should have just said that the US government was intentionally infecting blacks with the AIDs virus then Barry would have been happy to come back on his show.
Sweeeet. I just made a thread for the video. ;)
Good job!!
er, I mean, you should not question or slander the good name of the Honorable ObamaX. Those are just words, WORDS!
Vote for Obama or you’re a racist.
Vote for Obama or you’re a racist.
OH YEA??? Well you better vote for Hillary or you’re a sexist..so there...LOL...

Obama corner in upper right.
Aha, but I'm one of those "rich white people" that are the world's biggest killers who nuked thousands without batting an eye and invented HIV to commit genocide against people of color. My government lied and we all conspired to condemn the world to grinding poverty as we live in luxury. I am no better than Al Qaeda.
Like it or not, Barack, these are the ideas you supported for 20 years, and it didn't bother you to take your two young daughters there to hear it over and over again.
Lest we forget... This asshat didn’t just sit in the pew listening to this crap. He provided financial support to the tune of $22,500 in 2006 alone.
He HAD to have endorsed Wright’s message. Otherwise, why pony up?
Now to be fair, I am willing to give the reverend a pass as to being bitter against white folks, considering he grew up in the segregated era of history.
But when he starts saying we are killers and we unleashed HIV on black people to commit genocide, that guy is nuts. Certifiable. Big red flags.
Even if someone has a grudge against white people, that's not the sort of conspiracy theories you want your kids to be hearing. Just plain crazy.
