Imus & Evan Thomas Daily Morning Bashing Of Kerry
However, Imus always says but you know I am supporting Senator Kerry. He is my canidate as he then goes into how Kerry will say or do anything to get elected.

1. I started watching Imus again about a week ago. But I'm stopping today.
He's entertaining as a Democrat, but not as a Republican.

3. Still like to get all sides or at least know what they are saying as
hard as it is at times. There is no way can listen to or watch Fox & Imus is somewhat tolerable because he is somewhat of a joke. His show probably will not last anyway but he does have different guests including Kerry & Edwards on in the morning.

6. Actually, it is a marketing gimmick
My neighbor who plans to run for office, but who can't because he has to care for his father who is ill, does the same thing Imus does. His objective is not to offend democrats, who's votes he will need, while at the same time spouting repuke rhetoric to maintain his party credentials.

In New York Imus is going to lose market share if he says he's unequivocally for bush.

7. I'd rather see Imus support Bush
Whoever he supports he feels obligated to bitch and moan about 90% more than the other candidate.

8. did you hear George Carlin yesterday? he called big fat Bar Bush
a "silver haired DOUCHEBAG!"

might've been silver douchebag, but douchebag was the operative word

Imus laughed and laughed and laughed at that one

I can't stand him, but that was VERY funny, and I love that word when applied to any conservo-ass

his sidepricks didn't like it, which was so much the better

Right now, as I type, those guys are calling Maureen Dowd a HAG, after showing a picture of her in Rolling Stone, with the JFL

9. I call bullshit
I'm convinced that Imus decided, a while back, to play the foil to his stupid crew of knuckle dragging sycophants, and throw some faux support behind Kerry, hoping to raise his ratings.
I strongly believe that its really an effort to increase what passes for witty repartee on this daily testosterone fest he calls 'his show'.
Most of his 'regular' listeners aren't interested in real issues, and only truly get moved when he gives the appearance of taking a stand. What better way to do that than claim to support Bush's opponent so that he and the locker room boys can launch into their daily diatribes against anyone and everyone who they deem unworthy? (most often women, as it turns out)

Imus is a phony, and his staff are, among other things, a bunch of misogynist assholes.
