Hillary Clinton, Don Imus And Timbaland
April 27, 2007, 8:02pm
The Family Research Council is criticizing Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton for accepting money from rapper Timbaland for her presidential campaign because of Timbaland’s race-tinged lyrics.
The council produced a video noting that Clinton, D-N.Y., condemned disgraced “shock jock” Don Imus for recently calling the women of the Rutgers women’s basketball team “nappy-headed hos” and said such “’small-minded bigotry and coarse sexism” should not be tolerated. Timbaland’s lyrics include repeated references to “niggas” and “hos.”
“Hillary helped finish off Don Imus’ career, yet she uses Timbaland’s money to advance her own?” one woman said in the council’s video. “Contact the Clinton campaign and let them know how you feel.”
