I heard this too. Imus is slime on the war in Iraq but he did step up to the plate on this one and Boettcher sounded like a babbling idiot.

I'm thrilled to get a mention. But more important....
How great is it to know MSM blunders, bluffs, spit and spin now get the attention they so richly deserve?

Imus is a D*uche, but every once in a while a blind squirrel finds a nut.

It was a logical question. Reporters aren't used to facing logic...........

Saw boettcher on MSNBC between 4:30 and 5:00 AM EST on MSNBC this morning.
boetcherr had a sad face on and for a good 15 minutes he and the newslady at the MSNBC studios(melissa something) went into a liberal democrat spin machine mode discussing everything from how the insurgents have become technologically savvy to how bad life is in Baghdad, etc.etc..

Imus asked David Gregory "how soon will the "liberal media" blame Karl Rove for causing Zarqawi's death in order to boost the President's approval rating"?

Now that Rick Kaplan is outta there - Imus has no need to shill for him. Not that he didnt believe half of what he says, however.

Yep, that Karl is quite a creative rascal. Just wait till he pulls UBL out the hat in October, about two weeks before the mid-term elections. Pelosi will collapse with a case of the vapors and her face-lift will and droop down to her knees.

I thought all reporters were babbling idiots.

Imus is a slimeball, but, he managed to get this one right.
I only saw this news a little while ago and wondered what the MSM spin on this great news would be. Guess I didn't have to wait to long.
Hats off to our brave men and women in uniform!

Song for Zarqawi: One way, or another, I'm gonna git you, gonna git,git you...one way or another....(sung by Melody, circa 1978). Great song and so apropos!

Happy to hear this from Imus. Thanks YaYa!
I wonder, tho, how many other reporters will spin that bombing, and other bombings, that way and get away with it.
The press --- one of our worst enemies.
