there has GOT to be something else more important happening that the today show is covering up by spending the first fifteen minutes talking about imus' nappy-headed hos. instead of being determined to find out what it is, i'm annoyed and thus driven to comment.
i think he is being a tool and i think @l sh@rpton is a warty-headed toad. honestly, when i saw him talking on the show the word "toad" came to my mind and happily, toad rhymes somewhat with ho. but anyway, here is the problem i have with all this uproar:
1. what about the asian girls and the white girls on that team? i bet if any of them heard his comments first-hand, which i doubt any of them did, they probably just rolled their eyes and thought, i don't think so - a ho is any woman who you could see on the jerry springer show.
2. using the word "ho" automatically makes a comment racist? does this mean that only black ladies can be "hos"? i don't think so. i call my sister a ho all the time. as i mentioned above, for me and i think maybe for people my age and younger, a ho is someone you'd see on jerry springer with her belly hanging over her too-tight jeans flashing the audience and screaming about her babydaddy. i'd like to think this term transcends matters of race.

yeah, but nappy headed is racist..... Like having typical "black" hair that is all crazy and 'fro-y and not long, straight and blonde. Like being poor with untreated, un-Supermodel like hair. Not everyone is Oprah or Tyra or Naomi Campbell.
ok. check your myspace messages. let me know what you think.
