[...] You won’t often find the boss perfectly in sync with the New York Times, but the stars have aligned for the I-man. I’m as shocked as he is by the uproar over this — not because it’s not deserved, but because it is deserved and has actually materialized, unlike the dozens of other “jokes” like this he’s told in the past and then beat the rap on by pleading guilty to comedy. I wonder what’s different this time; I bet he wonders too. Probably it’s fallout from Michael Richards, who was also ostensibly shooting for funny but ended up somewhere between creepy and vicious. Comics simply aren’t going to get the same slack on race humor after that. Imus is learning the hard way. [...]

Is this how liberals keep ethnic groups hyper sensitized and just plain thin skinned, so the PC crap goes on forever?

Will Imus get fired? Nope, he’s liberal, not expected to be responsible or use logic.

Liberals don’t need intellect or accountability, they have wonderful intentions and moral authority to drive us down the road to hell.

Turn abouts fair play, fire his A$$!

“the jigaboos versus the wannabes.”

Is it me, or do you think someone in the Democratic Party is thinking of using this as a campaign slogan?

I’d drink Ann’s bath water anyday, but what’s an imus?

Bring that ‘nappy-head’ language to 12th st. & vine and see how long an imus can stay this side of a bloody pulp.

McGuirk up!

Then it’s off to rehab for you Imus. C’mon, shut up and get packing!
Khyber Pass on April 6, 2007 at 2:43 PM

I suspect he’s been at least a couple of times – so he’ll be able to do a kind of “refresher rehab”. Maybe an ankle-bracelet-with-an-earpiece that plays sensitivity lectures.

Why isn’t Jesse Jackson or Al Sharpton protesting/picketing this particular incident? Seriously? There must be something else going on for them not to pull a “Chuck Shumer” in front of the camera.

Will Don Imus Get Treated like Dave Lenihan By the NAACP? Don’t Count on it! Imus Pulls for Democrats, Just Like the NAACP Does….

See what Imus said here. Now keep in mind that Imus said his statement intentionally and didn’t apologize until called on the carpet about it.
Contrast this with when Dave Lenihan had a slip, that he immediately corrected and apologized for l…

Imus has buddied up to the MSM elites.

Their appearances amount to about half of the daily four hours so their narcissism makes them huge fans.

He is loyal to them and they to him.

Rush was forced to resign for ESPN for saying the media wanted a black QB to suceed. Imagine what would happen if Rush, Ann or anyone on the right said what Imus said?

We don’t need to imagine, do we? We’ve seen it time and time again. Unfortunately, we’ve also seen it on this very site.

OK kid, I will no doubt regret this, but why do you call Imus “Fudge”?

[...] And the ones interviewing them in the first place? They should go back to celebrity journalism or, in the case of Don Imus, more stories about their adorable children and charitable works — or at least, in his case, interview his famous newsmaker friends, which sometimes pays off (and sometimes not) (UPDATE — and then some!) and not his famous news friends. They probably don’t really kick in big time to the ranch, anyway. Perhaps if politically influential entertainers such as Imus would ease out of these on-air luncheons we would see fwer journo-on-journo interviews — and maintain more reason to actually believe journalists when they really are trying to do their jobs.

Where’s the hat, pardner? I swear a real cowboy would take that hat and shove it up his you-know-what. The man is a joke long past the punchline. That and he has a face that looks like he’s used it as a belt sander.

I’m surprised he didn’t blame his racist outburst on Bush Derangement Syndrome.

Imus is quickly becoming the Keith Olberman of radio.

Dr. Gecko on April 6, 2007 at 2:44 PM

Bet it would sound like…

-Well, look, y’know…what Bush is doing to this country, it makes you frustrated and yeah, I’m very sorry, what he’s done to this country, taking away our freedoms, and uhhh…lying to start a war for oil, oh and uh, his use of torture…it caused me to be frustrated, and lose focus, and I said something dumb, and uhh… I’m very very sorry.
