I agree with Scuds....Bo has to go. He's just not funny. He's actually pathetic.

And in a contrite gesture, Imus should publicly fire Bernard and replace him with an African American.

Well,I heard a little more of the whole incident today........Sure enough,Don didn't come up with the word Ho.No,that was thrown in by Bernard saying "Hardcore Ho(s)." Don didn't think.He just instantly put "Nappy-headed" along with it.I think it is very important that he dump Bernard.Bernard is responsible for almost all of the comments that are over the line.People are very upset about using the word "ho" to describe any of these students.Well,it wouldn't have happened if Bernard wasn't there.I don't think Don is a bad person,but I am not sure(at all) about Bernard.Imus is responsible for what goes on,and if he says he is gunna change the show,then I think Bernard(for sure)has to go.His whole reason for being there was to go over the line like this.Bernard's comedy may be acceptable for a club,but not for a national daily t.v. show.I am not a guy big on controlling speech,and I don't think calling somebody ugly is over the line.If it is,then we gotta stop commenting about body part size etc.,because people can't control these things.People haven't been hurt physically for being ugly etc. in this country.They have been physically injured for being Black,or gay.So,I see race and sexual orientation as areas these guys need to stop "rapping about" when comedy is the point of the conversation at hand.I didn't say Don should be fired.I think you will get mixed views on that. I said I thought he would be fired.I still think he might be(because a lot more is there if they go searchin'.)I think Bernard should have been canned 4 days ago.
