4. It really was a

treat. Great advocacy and defense of Obama.

2. This was hilarious.

Well we know how the good Senator feels about Sarah Palin.

5. That was pretty entertaining.

Sometimes Imus is entertaining and, for the record, I don't believe he's a racist. Just a crochety old man who is always in a bad mood and never met anyone who wasn't worthy of his over-the-top insults.

My favorite line of the Kerry tape came from Imus when he said, "I hope your guy wins even though I'm voting for McCain."

LOL. Just like the rest of McCain's supporters!!

[skooooo]

6. I think the same..

He can be fun to watch sometimes.

7. That doesn't even make

sense to me..if he wants Obama to win why doesn't he just vote for him?

Because at this point in time it smacks of stupidity to vote for eternal war, fear, and lies.

9. He seems to like Obama, but Imus has always been a huge

supporter of McCain and he seems to be very loyal (almost to a fault) to people he likes or people who have "been there for him."

He was the same way with Harold Ford. Nonstop, incessant talk about how awesome Harold Ford is (really? I didn't get that memo) during the 2004 election. When Harold lost, I thought Imus was going to need psychotherapy. Seriously. He was that upset. But since Harold never offered a word of support for Imus during his big scandal, I think Ford is off the Christmas list. The bloom is off the rose so to speak. Also, that huge asshole Sen. Pete Domenici from NM who was directly involved in the Attorney General firings. Imus really stuck up for him because Domenici had helped him with this NM charity ranch for kids with cancer so he felt he owed him support. Now, I disagree with that somewhat but it's hard to fault the guy for loyalty. I can and do fault him for alot of the assine and insensitive things he says, but he sticks by the people who have stuck by him so whatever.

I don't listen to Imus anymore since he's not on MSNBC although, truth be told, I'd much rather hear Imus' insane rants every morning that listen to 5 minutes of Joe Fucking Scarborough. :puke:

11. Me was thinking the same thing

No Imus fan, but a good interview by Kerry though. :)

8. Thanks! Despite all the negative - I miss Imus - But it's

probably a good thing he wasn't so big on TV anymore- being a McCain supporter. Although his comment to Kerry "i hope your man
wins -- but I am voting for McCain."

[Phx_Dem]

10. Yeah, warts and all he beats the hell of Joe Scarborough.

And Mika Mouse for that matter.

12. Okay, that was fantastic. Something about Don Imus brings out

a side of John Kerry we don't often see. Excellent interview.
