Andy Rooney, racial agitator




This story is making the rounds across the net, blazing along like a brush fire. Andy Rooney, who's what, about 112 now, let loose on today's Imus in the Morning regarding a certain word that was taken out of the lexicon years ago. Read the link for details.

He'll get slammed for his characterization of the word in question as a "strong word". As the one commenter stated, "boy" is a strong word, too. So, the fallout here will be interesting. Perhaps Rooney will be forced to apologize by this group. Or perhaps Teresa Heinz Kerry, an African American herself, will come to his rescue. Or call him a name.
