What a head-ache this thread has become!

I was pleased that the Rutgers basketball team had the grace to accept Imus's apology, while still objecting to the words he used.

It is instructive to learn from certain Mudcat posters that the motives of Mr. Sharpton and Mr. Jackson should be more closely scruntinized. Is that because they are liberal or because they are Black, or both? I suppose there may be some merit to the accusations but I do wonder about the underlying motivation. Maybe it's easier than that, just the need of a troll to get further attention.
