It's nice to see that Roseanne has reacted quickly to her recent radio gaffe. On her blog, the stand-up comedian had this to say about her comments that (and I'm paraphrasing here) gays are self-centered, selfish, hedonists who need to get over ourselves:

I deeply regret that I have offended gay people. I said things that I do not really mean, before I had thought them through... I was wrong and I seriously apologize! Call me up today and let me have it! I will apologize and try to make clear what I really meant to say... which was that everybody needs to unite right now, and step outside of their own neighborhoods, groups, races and classes to stop Bush's war on our country and our people. I love gays and I hate division. I am just a big idiot with a big mouth sometimes. I will learn to be more careful! Please forgive me, I am so sorry!!!!

Roseanne and her publicist Homer Simpson then took questions.

I've certainly never misspoken on the blog, in my column, or in my daily life (cough, cough), but I think we should accept Roseanne's apology

John Aravosis over at Americablog has a post about Don Imus and his ongoing comedic shtick that is pretty much offensive to everyone. In case you missed it, Imus landed in hot water this week for his shockingly racist comments about a female basketball team (for which he was suspended for two weeks). In the clip (which is below the fold), Imus and his producer, who is pretending to be Cardinal Egan, joke about beating up "faggots", Anderson Cooper "taking it up the poop chute", wishing a sissy on America Idol would be the victim of a hate crime and more. Boy, it must be hard to come up with such fresh, clever jokes. No wonder Imus earns millions of dollars every year!
