Imus: Obama "Almost A Bigger P***y" Than Hillary

via Media Matters | April 17, 2008 05:42 PM

MediaMatters reports that on his radio show this morning, Don Imus said that Barack Obama is "almost a bigger pussy than ." From the Media Matters summary:

During the April 17 edition of Imus in the Morning, host Don Imus asserted that Sen. Barack Obama is "almost a bigger pussy than" Sen. Hillary Clinton. While discussing the April 16 Democratic debate, Imus said he thought that co-moderator George Stephanopoulos was "great" and that the debate was "fine," adding: "I thought Senator Obama was on the defensive most of the night. But they're both sissy boys or sissy girls, or whatever. Because they talk big when they're out on the campaign trail, wolfing on each other." News anchor Charles McCord interjected, "But then," and Imus continued: "And then when they show up at the debate, they fold up like a couple of cheap lawn chairs. I mean, I don't understand that. And he's almost a bigger pussy that she is."

1. Yes, those black presidential candidates are bunch of nappy-headed...

...wait, why do people still care what Imus thinks?

[crankychatter]

12. seriously.... LMMFAO

Ole Imus, bitter much, eh?

[L0oniX]

29. LMFAO

31. This is actually an informative OP, and I see Imus hasn't changed a bit.

But I see many HRC boosters approvingly quote many dubious sources, as opposed to one that's simply meant to be informative (as is the case in this OP).

If they're criticizing Senator Obama, the HRC boosters don't care how rancidly bigoted the sources they quote are. Whoever it is - Sean Hannity, Rush Limbaugh, David Duke, whoever - they're attacking the man who dared derail the coronation, don't you see? Most of them wouldn't flinch at approvingly requoting George Wallace if was still around and attacking Obama, I'd wager.

Edited to clarify my original reply.

36. I don't think Hissyspit is a Clinton supporter. Though I do agree with you otherwise. nt

[apocalypsehow]

37. No, I don't either! Sorry if that's how it came across in my post.

[lisa58]

2. I haven't heard that name since last Easter

[EFerrari]

3. Is he still on the air? News. to me.n/t

[panader0]

4. I would like to meet Mr. Imus personally to discuss this matter.

[speedoo]

5. Is that scumbag actually still on the air?

And if he is, who the fuck actually listens to him?

[kenny blankenship]

22. He'll be kickin, as long as you can still get liver transplants from China on the QT

[1776Forever]

34. Imus is on RFD TV and The Fan Radio in NY - You have to have cable to get him on the TV now.

I watch RFD some because it is about rural farming communities. Imus is way out of touch on the channel. He has two African-American members of the panel now. A guy named Tony Powell and a young lady named Karith Foster. Here is a link:

6. Well, isn't THAT special!

:dunce:

[DesertFlower]

17. thanks for making me smile. nt

[Raine]

7. Guess he likes MacCain

:puke:

[JoFerret]

8. That racist sexist creep can shut up. Don't bring him here. Please.

.

[liberaldem4ever]

9. That guy is so classy

:sarcasm:

[stellanoir]

10. He was fired and disgraced for being a racist

Now the pee brain is exposing himself again as both a sexist and a racist. He has no business having a mouthpiece.

Unbelievable.

[msongs]

11. Imus' job is to get you spreading his message. Mission accomplished nt

[NC_Nurse]

13. Imus = Asshat Extroardinaire

What a gasbag. :eyes: STFU, you withered old racist pig!

[Evergreen Emerald]

14. you forgot sexist.

[Coexist]

15. who??

[JohnnyLib2]

16. Who?

[splat]

18. This disdain for Imus is common ground, one small step for DU...

:thumbsup:

[Ian David]

19. Don Imus's face LOOKS like a big.... Oh, you know where I'm going with this. n/t

[kentuck]

23. A big pile of cowshit dried in the sun?

Wrinkled by age and gravity? :-)

[Ian David]

30. No, I was thinking more like a giant, wrinkly vulva. n/t

[KoKo]

20. HUH? Why would you post some stuff from Imus...thought he was dead....

I wish I could understand why you posted that...:shrug:

[Hissyspit]

33. I post lots of stuff.

Seems to be some interest in it. But, to give respect to your question, I'll answer that it demonstrates the mind-set of someone who thought the standards of last night's debate were acceptable.

[KoKo]

39. Thanks...

Didn't mean to snap at you. I honestly haven't heard anything about him since he was fired. I'm not surprised he thought the standards of last night's debate were acceptable...though. That's why I guess I didn't understand the post.

Peace! :hi:

[Cha]

21. Fuck off imus...

you creep who doesn't know his ass from a hole in the ground.

[BleedingHeartPatriot]

24. How predictable is this guy?

:shrug:

[midnight]

25. Wasn't he the guy who said inappropriate things about

female athletes and was fired? Fire him again.

[skyounkin]

26. They

didn't learn their lesson with the nappy head comment- time for him to be fired.

[tularetom]

27. It's a presidential election not a dick measuring contest

WTF is it with all this macho bullshit? If I want to hear a bunch of assholes talking tough all I have to do is go down to the local redneck bar.

Over the years I've sorta found that real tough guys don't have to tell me how tough they are.

I'm glad Obama doesn't feel he has to prove he has bigger balls than anyone else in order to be president. I wish Hillary wasn't so desperate to show us she has a pair too.

[otohara]

28. Media Matters Silent About Randi Rhodes

they are hypocrites! La, la,la,la

[mrreowwr_kittty]

41. What do you want them to say about it?

She was recorded saying offensive things about Clinton and Ferraro. She was suspended. She ended her contract with AAR and went to NovaM. What else do you want to know? :shrug:

[ShortnFiery]

45. Yeah, it was on her "off time" but she's better off now. :-)

Randi's great on NovaM where I just purchased a yearly membership in order to get podcasts, etc.

Randi Rhodes :yourock:

[fortyfeetunder]

32. Put him on IGNORE

It's obvious the MSM still desires bigoted, racist diatribe but we don't have to put up with it. I guess I will also have to find out who his sponsors are so I can put them on ignore too! :grr:

[ladjf]

35. Are we back to quoting Imus? I liked it better when we had stopped

hearing about what he was saying.

[redstate_democrat]

38. So basically Hillary is a bigger pussy than Obama.

Gotcha.

[progressoid]

40. Is he still wasting oxygen?

Don't really care what Imus thinks or says.

[TragedyandHope]

42. The right-wing cult of contrived masculinity

The right-wing cult of contrived masculinity

The underlying premise of the modern conservative movement is that the entire Democratic party consists of a bunch of fags and dykes who are both too effeminate and too masculine to properly lead the nation. Coulter says it out loud. Dowd hints at it broadly. And the entire press corps giggles and swoons at this shallow, sophomoric concept like a bunch of junior high pom pom girls.

<snip>

The converse of this is equally true. As critical as it is to them to feminize Democratic and liberal males (and to masculinize the women), even more important is to create false images of masculine power and strength around their authority figures. The reality of this masculine power is almost always non-existent. The imagery is what counts.

<snip>

This works exactly the same as the images of moral purity that they work so hard to manufacture, whereby the leaders they embrace -- such as Gingrich, Limbaugh, Bill Bennett, even the divorced and estranged-from-his-children Ronald Reagan and Coulter herself -- are plauged by the most morally depraved and reckless personal lives, yet still parade around as the heroes of the "Values Voters."

43. Intelligent, insightful, crisp, relevant and on topic

You can kiss that ABC Moderator gig goodbye

[JBoy]

44. He misspoke. He meant to say "Obama has a bigger posse than Hillary."

[ShortnFiery]

46. Rumpole of the Baily has stopped by to say "hey."

;) :hi:

[Beacool]

47. Yep, he said it.

I heard him myself. Then again, he's no fan of Hillary either.
