3. He calls Hillary Clinton "Satan" all the time too. |

He's really become more unlistenable and intolerable than ever of late. I only tune in sporadically and briefly but I did catch him saying that he is a GE shareholder recently which explains a lot.
They never parody repubs (except for Falwell) either only dems (Nagin, Ted Kennedy, & the big dog.)
The only redeemable part of the show is when he interviews authors and certain politicians. The rest of it is mind rot. IMHO

12. sounds like just another hate-monger |
|
It's mind-boggling how hate spewing and groundless attacks have almost completely taken over corporate media. No wonder half the adult US population is on anti-depressants!:silly:

4. He's the most disgusting mis-use of space on the planet! |
|
In 2000, Anus said, "Al Gore's the most vile person in the world. The most corrupt politician EVER." I think all his years of substance abuse left him without any useful brain matter. He's not fit to wipe Al's butt. Gore/Feingold 2008!

7. The guy is worthless on all counts. He is a terrible interviewer which |
|
is why he has to make up for his ineptness with comments such as he makes. He lacks intelligence to the highest degree, almost as much as the President.
One of these days he or his network may get hauled into court, hopefully.

heard "And now a word from our sponsors" was during the commercials. It's so transparent, Imus should stay true to himself and interject his political conversations with horse manure ads. ugh

10. You know, he's so quick to paint himself an expert on who is evil |
|
and yet he seems not to recognize that he himself, with the exception of the work he does on his ranch for kids, is the very personification thereof.
His ONLY saving grace on this planet is his charity work. Otherwise, he's the sorriest excuse for a bag of protoplasm I've ever seen. Is there ever a time when he's not calling someone else evil, fat, gay, old, ugly--or evil, fat, old, gay AND ugly? (Note here: HE's the one who thinks "gay" is an insult--and routinely applies that adjective to straight people he happens to hate.)
The only good news is that we don't have to see him on MSNBC for the whole summer because his broadcasts there go on hiatus while he's at his ranch. Good riddance.

11. His charity work is a form of self-aggrandizement.... |

And his wife has her own little Amway scam going with her products which he promotes ceaselessly on company time.

|
Unlistenable, unwatchable, unbearable. MSNBC can start splitting the 29% audiance with FOX.

If he said "Al Gore is the phoniest bastard on the planet, for these reasons", I might, if I could be bothered, go through them and conclude either "he's made a mistake in this step here" or "Wow, Al Gore really *is* the phoniest bastard on the planet", but the simple fact that he chooses to call Al Gore names doesn't really mean anything.

I caught less than 2 minutes of his show one day. Had to turn it. This guy is a putz. Plus, his name is just 2 letters different than ANUS... that's MY name for him. Piece of shit!

Imus is a piece of shit, a dry drunk and recovering drug addicted piece of shit that thinks he can go around giving classes of morality.
There are sewer rats with more integrity than this piece of shit.

22. Is Imus bipolar, or does he just hate everybody? |
|
Not to insult bipolar people, of course. If we were to apply his comments to Tipper, however, I wouldn't completely disagree. As a musician, her work with the PMRC goes against everything I stand for.

27. Imus apparently reserves ""a horrid human being." for the very |
|
best we have. About two months ago he said the exact thing about President Carter. Imus's spoken opinions are no more than a product for sale to the highest bidder. He only says things in two modes:(1) he's selling something for some one or (2) he's attempting to be funny.(and failing) He's a pretty sad case and is being paid millions to spout his whory crap.

30. Imus hates the iraq war, but he hates Bush critics even more |
|
He hates Al Gore because he claims that Gore took money from the tobacco lobby after Gore's own sister had died from lung cancer.
