Sets conditions
Now that Don Imus has settled with CBS Radio for his firing for calling the Rutgers women's basketball team "nappy headed hos" the betting is that he will soon return to someone else's airwaves.
That speculation gives Rev. Al Sharpton opportunity to come up with five conditions for Imus' return.
Sharpton outlined those conditions in a column in the New York Daily News.
Interesting, that Sharpton, who has, in the past, ruined the reputations of police officers and prosecutors, and who has his own radio show, wasn't required to meet five conditions before he was allowed on the air.
Who is Sharpton to set these conditions? Who is he to be the arbiter of what is permissible speech?
Just as Sharpton has the right to try to hold a radio audience, so does Imus.

Here are my Points
Five Steps for Al Sharpton.
1. Pay the $360 thousand dollars you owe in losing the defamation case in the Tawana Brawley case.
2. Apologize to the Duke La Cross players who were exonerated and pronounced not guilty.
3. Take a four month Vacation and see a Doctor for "Foot in Mouth" disease.
4. Thank God you were not killed by that man when you caused a riot in New York over something that was none of your business.
5. And finally ask Martin Luther King Jr's forgiveness for faking you are the Civil Rights leader who took over when he was unfortunately killed by a deranged man. Or was it the C.I.A. Or maybe it was you?
