Bill-Imus Rivalry Throwback to Old West
Albuquerque Journal ^ | February 11, 2007 | David Roybal

Posted on 02/11/2007 11:43:29 AM PST by greyfoxx39

It was Dreaded Don Imus, whose scowl might have been due to the salty tongue lodged inside. "I've come for you, Imus," said Big Bill. "Nobody calls one of my staffers a 'sniveling little weenie' and gets away with it."

Dreaded Don flashed a Jack Palance smirk from his chair by the stove. "I wouldn't push too far, Billy Boy," he said.

Big Bill cupped his hand by the six-gun at his side. "Billy Boy, yourself," he challenged. "And I'm not a 'fat sissy,' either. You're dead wrong about that!"

-snip-

"We were friends once," Big Bill said, glaring at Dreaded Don. "We used to laugh and make fun of others from the safety of your studio. Now you're aiming your fire at me and at those who carry my water. You owe me an apology. I canceled my last visit to your studio and you need not invite me any more."

Dreaded Don tugged at his tight leather gloves. "You're a big baby, Billy Boy," he said. "Nobody cancels on me. You've seen your last microphone in the Big Apple, if I have anything to do with it."

This may be satire, but I thought the characterizations were spot on!

I see I didn't make it clear that Big Bill is Bill Richardson, sorry.

Ping for New Mexicans

Sorry I couldn't read the whole article. Bill Richardson is probably the best of the lot over on the Dark Side.

Admittedly it was alsighly confusing. If you had qualified him as

Bill the Traitor or
Bill--King, of Chinese Takeaway or
Bill--the Monica's boss wannabe

Then we might have known which RAT low life hack you had meant.

I had it in mind that the Albuquerque Journal was on the "deny posting" list here, but have been searching and can't find that info. I will post it all if I can find out if it is ok.

The best of a sad lot - doesn't mean he is not a liberal Clintonian.

Imus to Gov. Richardson: "Besa mi culo"

which loosely translates as ...

Later in the program, Imus referred to Richardson as "Gordo," which is Spanish for "fat one."

Richardson's mother is Mexican.

last year Imus referred to the "Jewish management" of CBS Radio as "money-grubbing bastards."



"...some little pipsqueak yuppie on Governor Richardson's incompetent phony staff in Santa Fe, New Mexico, and discuss this. And then another one of these little pinheads says to Julie that they're demanding an apology.

Here's my apology: Besa mi culo! How is that?..."

Don Imus? Isn't he the Darth Vader wannabe who wears a cowboy hat on a morning program on PMSNBC who is more wrinkled then a prune and who is married to a nutcake vegetarian greenie and who uses kids with disabilities as slave labor to run his ranch?

Besa mi culo! How is that?..."

No habla Espanol, senor. But I remember a song from the fifties or thereabouts that went "Besa me, besa me mucho." That was approximately translated "Kiss me much".

And so I understand at least the first two words, Kiss my....culo?!!

Never mind.

If the characterization includes Imus as some sort of cowboy type, it is wrong. Imus may own a big ranch in NM, but a cowboy he is not. He's a pansy that throws words from behind a microphone...couldn't throw a punch if he had to...and my kid sister could kick his butt in a minute.

The ABQJournal is free!! There is no sign up, no registration. You just have to follow their instructions and watch a 30-second commercial and then go to the story.

And yes, the ABQ Journal is excerpt only, though it is not on JimRob's list for some reason. If you try to post full text articles you will be denied. You can post up to 300 words if you edit it your self, as greyfoxx39 did. Otherwise it will auto excerpt up to 100 words or two paragraphs, whichever is shorter.
