This is not about Sharpton who needs absolutely nothing to become "outraged" and get his face on television, nor about Jesse "Shakedown Artist" Jackson. It is about Imus.

While his initial comments were offensive, the real problem is a pattern of racist commentary by him and his crew for decades.
Worse, in two of his miserable self pitying rants he has LIED.

Yesterday he denied flat out that he ever called Gwen Eiffel a "cleaning lady." I actually heard him when he said it.

Today he said he had made the comment, but that it was back in the Reagan Administration. Wrong again it was in the Clinton administration in the 90's.

Like so many things his cover up and excuse making is going to turn out worse than his initial mistake.
