Imus, Ted Kennedy, JFK....anyone watching?
On Imus this morning, he has that idiot that impersonates Brian Wilson, Jack Nicholson, and others. Today, he is impersonating a drunk, sexed-up, Edward Kennedy. Not a mention that today is the anniversary of JFK's assassination. Am not sure if they just don't care about the total political insensitivity, or did not remember the date. Am going to email the show to express disappointment in their lack of respect...not that they will care, but it may help me!!

4. Imus producer's email
Christine.Macdonald@msnbc.com

It's easy to say, "fuck Imus," but how about taking about 30 seconds to register displeasure? Thanks!!

7. Imus show
I watched it and although I was sure I would be angry, to my surprise, I found nothing disrepectful about it. He got a little dig in about drinking, but then Imus went on to talk about the assassination and the feelings that this country shared. I see no reason to write and complain.

5. Give Imus his meds back. He was funny once, now he's just a
mean old man.

10. He's about as funny as the bob and tom show or bob and john or whatever
the hell that stupid show is that's on some FM radio stations in the morning. All that forced laughter is revolting!

11. I hate Imus and these stupid politicians who agree to do his show
are enabling him. They should cut him off.

12. From the same great talent that pissed in a phone booth while drunk
pretty much meeting expectations. Fuck Imus.

13. I missed most of it
but the pictures were great. Jack Valenti said he thought Oswald did it. More chance to push the government lie. Someone so close to the scene and at Parkland, he must know more than he is letting on.

14. I watch Imus...
every AM while I am getting ready for work. Sometimes he goes off the chain like during his week-long spasm against the Wall Street Journal--but he does a lot for sick children and he opened my eyes to food chemicals that may (or to be fair may not) cause autism.

I think that having the actor impersonate Teddy Kennedy on the anniversary of JFK's murder was pretty borrish.

15. That part sounded kind of dumb.
People should leave Teddy alone. He may have his bad days, but who could blame him afer what he's been through.
I have been watching more of Imus and he has gotten better, but still has his moments, er minutes.

16. The only redeeming part of the show today
was when he called Jean Schmidt fugly.
