Crystal Clear Double Standard: This is not politically correct, it is just a couple of facts. Last month Imus got in trouble on Sirius for using the phrase "Nappy Headed Ho's" to describe the Rutgers Women's Basketball team. Stupid mistake, shouldn't have done it. He apologized in person to each of the women. Kudos for standing up for his mistake. Didn't matter, he got fired. Why? ?Because it is socially unacceptable to use that kind of language to describe women of color, unless you are a million dollar rapper.

Yesterday on XM Satellite Radio a couple of shock jocks joked about raping the Secretary of State, the First Lady, and the Queen of England. It wasn't just that simple, the person speaking laughed as they described the process of holding her down and doing it. But, where is the outrage? No where. Why? They are conservatives. It is okay for a liberal talk radio show to discuss raping conservative women, but if someone so much as insults a person of color they have to go.

Good thing Imus didn't say that he wanted to rape the women of Rutgers, he would be dead!
