Former cokehead Don Imus kicks Rush when he's down

A hundred pills a day? This claim appears to be greatly exaggerated.

That much medication would leave even a long-term and highly habituated user in a near-coma. The metabolites of these substances would be leaking out on the floor in a puddle. Massive body systems failure would have occurred long before.

suck it up, fatso


Imagine if a conservative called Rosie ODonnel "fatso".

Imagine if a conservative called Hitlery "Thunder Thighs".

Imagine if a conservative mentioned Streisland's nose.

But remember, the Democratic Party is the party of tolerence, while the Republican Party is the party of hate.

[M-cubed]

the 'those who want to see any conservative fall on their face' crowd ""...The left has empathy only for there own because their politics are the basis of their morals...as opposed to the right where morals are the basis of their politics...

[chiller]

Nobody takes Imus seriously. He says things just like this about his friends.

[Jack Black]

Is Rush even fat anymore? He looked very slimmed down the last few times I've seen him. Still large but not fat, that was my take.

[xzins]

Rush is a big money machine for a lot of businesses and advertisers.

I'm sure they want him back for selfish reasons.

Likewise, someone like Imus who sucks Rush's dust in terms of radio ratings, probably would like to see him fall a lot in the ratings.

My guess is that his ill will is ultimately based on self interest.

[bikerman]

The pot calling the kettle black. Anus er Imus is such a jerk.

I watched Imas a few times on the MSNBC feed. His demeaning banter with his own staff turned me off. Howard Stern is aired on the E-Channel. I've caught his shtick a few times. This one evening he had another woman on that was dying to be evaluated by this slimeball. He and his staff proceeded to trash her for about half an hour. She finally left in tears. This wasn't the typical silicone implant bimbo. She had a very nice figure and pretty face. She was quite attractive.

Some of these guys get off on belittling others. Even when Rush disagrees with this guests, he allows them to have their say and do damage to themselves.

The DJs that put others down leave me flat.

Rush does address the attributes of public personalities. Sometimes he's pretty tough on them, but this is different than slamming guests or staff members.

[Reagan79]

Rush will always be fat as long as he is conservative.

Imus is not worth commenting on. He has about three people each morning watching his show. This guy has seen his best days. As a matter of fact, MSNBC could use a major retooling. None of their news & commentary shows have any impact at all, although, I must admit they do beat CNN. That does not say too much, because CNN is dead, and has been for some time! As for Rush, he'll come back stronger than ever!

[Republican Wildcat]

As soon as he gets caught, he starts whining

Really? And when was this?

[Vinnie]

Even when Rush disagrees with this guests, he allows them to have their say and do damage to themselves.

One other thing Rush does that no other talk show host does ( That I have heard anyway) is thank the caller.

Not even the 'Mister Polite' Clark Howard does it. All the others simply disconnect.

As for Imus. He is a huckster and loser.
His 'ranch' acquision through idiots 'donating' for his ranch absolutely turned me off.
He is p@@@ywhipped, turned into a vegetarian, complains about smokers, all the while chewing Nicorette nicotine gum.

I can't stand to listen to him anymore.
The ONLY amusing segment he ever had is Bernard McGurk. He is funny.

[edwin hubble]

Imus is a mean, low, coarse fool.

[One_American]

Rush will be back. And when he is I hope he takes that turkey necked, has been Imus down a few notches.

[CyberAnt]

One poster has said they were taking the same medication, and could manage nicely on 2 capsules a day, even with extreme pain.

[Guillermo]

Exactly.

They obviously don't listen to Imus, who rarely has a good word about anyone.

[cars for sale]

and to boot...ole Imus is quick to show off his young son
but his grown daughters who were neglected in the cocain haze days despise ole Imus. How bad is it to have children despise you....ouch squared

[FlyVet]

Nobody takes Imus seriously. He says things just like this about his friends.

This is true. Imus is an equal opportunity insulter, and nobody hammers the Clintons better than he does. He has always been open and self-depricating about his past, so it didn't bother me much that he slammed Rush. "Tough love." Imus does some excellent interviews too, so I listen to his show sometimes.

[John,Staten Island]

Imus ridicules everybody,his radio show ranks near the bottom of the competition.It's like listening to a big infomercial for his 'ranch for children' If Rush were to make a donation Imus would be very supportive.His business selling clothes,salsa,etc went under,his wife is a pain in the ass,he's 60+ years old with a 5 year old kid who's a spoiled brat, his ranch is a money drain.Imus has got a lot to be miserable about.
