Imus Kicks Rush, Says He's Going to Prison

Radio host Don Imus is lashing out at rival Rush Limbaugh "even though," the New York Post's John Mainelli pointed out today, "Imus himself was off the air several times during the 1970s and '80s because of cocaine and alcohol addiction."

1. hypocrisy comes naturally to the reich wingers...

If Imus hadn't been white, he'd have gone to jail, too.

2. Imus Is Only Marginally Less Bigoted Than Rush...
He might be more so....

There are no reports of Rush using the N word to his surrogates....


I don't know why some of our candidates go on his show....

He even brags about being a registered Puke...

6. ANUS Said He's Dishing What He Got from STERN
In the NY Post version there is more of a hint into ANUS's schtick, that when ANUS had his various problems, including the collapsed lung, Howard STERN gave him the business, including hoping he would die. When ANUS was (supposedly) off of the drinking, STERN would call him and tell him he had a bottle of vodka there.

Don is despicable and detestable on many counts, but my local radio wingnut talkshow dude claims that he is just equally offensive to EVERYBODY except his wife, kid, and Charles. Occasionally, he drops hints that he just likes orneryness, not only in himself but in all troublemakers, even the ones who bother the Shrubbites. He's still detestable.

.... When an e-mailer suggested that Imus lay off the top-rated talker because of his own past experience with addiction, Imus said he's simply giving what he got.

"Everybody made fun of me - and still does," he said. "When I went to rehab, Stern was hilarious." ....
