Say what???? Rap has destroyed Black youth and brought disgrace on their parents by showcasing all that is WRONG with black culture!!!!

Then they want equality.

MLK said they would be judged on their character.

Those greedy criminal rapsters music kingpins sure cared about that, huh!

I am so tired of all this politically correct b.s.
Why not train the parents of these juvenile black
kids to have some respect; and then this type of
garbage would not go on? I love what Mr. Bill
Cosby has said on many occasions....now THAT is a
black man that I can respect. Thank you.

Yes yes yes he must be a bigoted racist because after all he is white. Yep this is the ONE rap that is harmful to society. Do you folks on the left ever really listen to yourselves? Your world is so full of imaginary boogy men that you all too often ignore, for years and years, those things and people that really mean and do harm. None so blind as those who refuse to see.......

no he is a bigoted racist because of the content of what he said.
just as jenkins was in referring to needing a "great white hope" if these were just everyday people, being stupid, in there own home, no one would know or care, but these are government, public officals, who should know how to act in public. no boogeyman here just the common stupidity of republicans

Ah, yes, it is all the Republicans' fault!! Look what you
bleeding heart liberals elected to the white house? And, now,
all of you are soooo sorry about it. I do not live in Kansas,
(thank God!), but know there are many, many, stupid ones there,
just like you. Who cares if someone is black, white, green,
purple? We are all on this planet together. Everyone has an
opinion, and sometimes it can get you in lots of trouble, so
the NAACP and the ACLU need to step aside, and let people have
their own opinion, and keep it to themselves.

Ah, Allie, but doesn't the first amendment give him the right to be a bigoted racist? If you don't like him (and I don't), then don't vote for the turkey! This "apologozing" hogwash is just passive-aggressive facism!!! Good to hear from you.

I can't argue with you there. But I still get a little bothered by all these "apology" demands. It seems like the "Thought Police" are trying to confiscate a person's right to individuality.(And why is no one demanding an apology from those twerps, the Phelps'?)

I agree with all who have made comments about 'political correctness running amok' and what that has done, and is doing, to our society. However, the cap saying what it did IS beyond the pale for an elected official.'Opossum'?'Dark meat'? Come on.....

We have enough from grandstanding political weasels trying to market and publicise themselves via outrageous behavior, like the FL Congressman who insists Republicans want all sick folks to die! This nation needs statesmen (and stateswomen), not cheap self-promoting hustlers. This offical should grow up. I usually laugh at the pronouncements of the NAACP these days, they are often a joke. But on this issue (again, I'm referring to the hat here, not the 'song), I don't think they're wrong to believe an apology is in order. This garbage gets old..

You people have got to be kidding me. you all need a sense of humor. I mean come on, you actually got offended by that. i find this funny cause if it was a black rep that did this you would not have a single issue with this. but under the current circumstances you all got your panties in a bunch over something that has been blown way out of proportion. grow up people.
