!<\/p>\n
if you ain’t laughing or turning the dial
\nyou are missing the point of free speech<\/p>\n
Jocks and Jills go up that Hill
\nsome swing left
\nsome swing right
\nmission accomplished when
\nthey get the monkeys chattering
\nthis time it’s about politically correctness<\/p>\n
what will Kurt Vonnegut have to say
\nto Hamlet – to Papa Hemingway
\neverybody smile now
\nbe candid, the cameras, are rolling
\njust like a stone that rolls
\nwith the might of the mighty<\/p>\n
no one can destroy the meaning
\nof a flag or a Jesus
\nit is the meaning not the symbol
\nthe flag was created for
\nthat Jesus came to impart<\/p>\n
when little, like sheep,
\nwe get led away
\nfrom where we were going before we came<\/p>\n
who’s yer daddy
\nwho’s yer baby
\nwhen pain comes raining down
\nwho’s the clown who made you frown
\nwho could make you laugh by crying or
\npack up your troubles in an old kit bag<\/p>\n
Imus stepped up with a mirror
\nof what our culture is becoming
\naccidentally or on purpose does it matter?
\nthe subject is free speech
\nit was the market that was politically threatened
\nthat did not let we the people decide
\nif Imus would continue to have an audience
\nwhich would be true if we truly had free speech<\/p>\n
Imus only incited a war of words, not a riot
\nis Imus a little racist?
\nare we all a little racist when it comes to folks
\nof our own kind?
\nHow many hate emails did the Rutger’s team get?
\nthose that would incite, didn’t give us the number
\nit was — two or three
\nand they didn’t give us the love emails at all!
\nit was — hundreds<\/p>\n
Imus, the Shock Jock opened the door
\nthat kept hidden the pain
\nof many ages<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
