Thank you! What a great Inaugaration Day present for all of us.

Jerger (ph)

Diedre aka Mr Imus

Is Imus a lib or not? I never listen to him, but I know he endorsed Kerry from what I hear.

Then, he refers to the press as communists, and says he liked Cheney's comment to Leahy...

[NativeNewYorker]

Imus is a self-serving entertainer without much of a consistent moral compass.

[wrathof59]

Why does the Vice President lower himself by appearing on IMUS, especially on inauguration day?

I am stunned that people actually listen to the pompous jerk. IMUS is a program that rates at the bottom, not even worth wasting the electricity for the TV.

Vice President Cheney should conduct himself in a more dignified manner and completely avoid idiots like IMUS.

[RockinRight]

Actually, I think it was a good move. Cheney probably figured if he could handle a smooth-talking lawyer like Edwards that he could handle Imus no prob.

[martin_fierro]

But, no, I'm a fan of the Brit Hume show. I think Brit does a good job. And occasionally hit some of the other news shows.

We're in good company!

[xsmommy]

hey, i will invite you and the cheney's over to watch brit sometime!!

[rhombus]

Despite insisting that Kerry was "his guy", Imus did Kerry no good during the election. The description of the little children who turned out to see Kerry's train that didn't even slow down was hillarious. Then after Kerry came on the show Imus highlighted the fact that Kerry had no idea what he wanted to do different in Iraq was great. We'll never know but I wouldn't be surprised a bit if Imus voted for Bush.

Bump for later read.

[Dog Gone]

Thanks for posting this.

Great read.

[YaYa123]

Did you see this?

Some of the folks on this thread don't know there's a regular thread that keeps up with Imus....not so much for his musings, but for the excellent guests he has on. Belittling Imus is fun, but the powers that be in DC and New York pay attention to him, so we do too.

[cyncooper]

Thanks--I had missed Cheney and had not seen this.

[YaYa123]

It was GREAT television! And silly man Imus thought the Cheneys would be too cowardly to appear. hee hee

[MadelineZapeezda]

Loved it when Lynne gave Imus the pork chops!

[Graybeard58]

R. CHENEY: Well, the situation back in 1990-1991, of course, was

a specific mandate from the Congress, from the United Nations and that

we'd signed up to with our allies that we'd go liberate Kuwait. But

it said nothing about taking Iraq.

Too many people, even here at FR forget this when asking why didn't Bush Sr. finish the job and take Saadam in Gulf war one.

When we hit our knees tonight we can thank God that we have Dick Cheney VP and not the Ambulance Chaser! LOL

Semper Fi,

Got to listen to this on the radio this am. DC was awesome and Mrs. C was just as good. Pretty funny stuff considering Imus backed JF'nK and the jr sen. from Mass has spoken to him since the election. The comments regarding the veep debate were great. Mrs. C reminded everyone of the beating her hubby threw sen. neck brace.

[cyncooper]

OK, just read the whole thing.

Wonderful.
