Marianne Williamson on Imus’ lynching. I agreee with her by the way.

The women of the Rutgers basketball team, simply by their existence, say it all. All of them are beautiful. All of them are high achievers. The very fact that they exist prove Imus’ comments to be absurd and stupid. I was all for shaming him publicly; healthy shame can be a positive force. I didn’t mind his being suspended from his job, and I wouldn’t have minded if it had been for longer. But firing him because we have to start concerning ourselves with what’s “admissable” on the airwaves? Does that mean I can no longer say “lying president” or “war-mongering vice-president” or “corrupt administration?”
