JKI think the board is fine just the way it is - there is no need to censor every joke or comment that is made.
As for the Imus situation, I couldnt agree more with Jason's comments about hypocracy. While I think the comments were inappropriate, why is it that Jesse Jackson of all people is calling for him to be fired - has everyone forgotten about Jackson's "hymie town" comment? How many other anti-semitic comments do you think he has made? What moral high ground does he stand on where he can call for anyone's termination without offering up his own resignation? Why is it ok for comedians and rap artists to throw around racist words and everybody yawns. Finally, I dont know if anybody recalls this or not, but soon after the Duke Lacrosse players were accussed of rape, Sharpton and Jackson were in Durham convicting those kids in the media. Does anybody here think that Sharpton or Jackson called them to apologize for their actions now that the charges have been dismissed?
