I understood that Imus' ranch was to benefit children w/cancer who were taking chemotherapy, etc., and/or who had little hope of living much longer. That is a worthy cause, I think. Whether or not Imus uses the ranch for his own enjoyment, well, who cares, as long as those kids have a shot at some fun?
As far as him bad-mouthing Michael Reagan - again - consider the source. It's IMUS, after all. He's a hard core, Kerry-loving, liberal, kind-of-worn-looking, no class radio "personality" who brings the $$ in to MSNBC. And since that's all THEY care about, he's here to stay as long as the $$ keeps coming. But he really DOES have a big trashy mouth. I would like to ask him WHY he puts down Michael Reagan for other than his politics. That's just nasty of him, but so LIKE him..... God help his adopted kids were he ever to adopt. Would they be second class, or what?
I think Imus' ranch does a whole lot more to benefit the Imus family. Often times the kids he has there aren't the ones that are ill but siblings of SIDS victims. Now, don't get me wrong, losing a sibling must be devastating but why not just stick with sick kids. He seems to spend lots of alone time there with Deirdre and Wyatt.
Interesting that he has admitted that he voted for Bush in 2000 yet he gets on this Anit-Bush rant. I really would like to know who Imus will vote for in 2004.
Imus and Frank Rich are really pathetic. Mile Reagan had just as much right to be there as Ron and Patty and Mike is the only one who talked about Maureen at the funeral.
You talk about the forgotten child, that was Maureen.
I saw the unbelievable effete and smug Ron Reagan last night on Larry King and I thought he was despicable.
I could this coming when Chris Matthews and Howard Fineman gushed all over him at the Sunset Reagan Funeral. The media want to build this guy up only because he is Ron Reagan and a Left Wing Liberal. Don't be surprised if he speaks at the Democratic Convention.
