Forgive and forget?

“NEW YORK-CBS fired Don Imus from his radio show Thursday…”
The Associated Press
April 12, 2007

Don Imus’ remarks about the Rutgers Women’s Basketball team were crude, racist and uncalled for. There is no excuse for it. However, Don Imus recognized his mistake and apologized. And apologized and apologized and apologized…

Jesse Jackson’s remarks about Jews were crude, racist and uncalled for. There is no excuse for it.

Al Sharpton’s remarks about white members of NYPD in conjunction with the Twana Brawli incident were crude, racist and uncalled for. There was no excuse for it.

On Easter Sunday in a spirit of love and forgiveness, the Reverend Al Sharpton and the Reverend Jesse Jackson called for the firing of Don Imus.

“Jesus wept.”
Gospel of St. John 11:35
