Good Grief! Imus (ack) pushing the AWOL story!!
Imus talking about the release of records "raising more questions than they answer"....."where was he in the missing six months". His little sidekick morons spew the RW "served his country" mantra, and Imus goes back at them: "where was he for the six months".

The times they are a changin'

1. And why has this taken 4 years to come up?
We've been screaming it for about that long.

Did it honestly take Peter Jenning's asking Clark to cause this?! If so, I'm so much more glad now that I'm moving to New Zealand.

2. People who served in the military for real don't like it
Imus was in the military; he served his time. Military vets don't like it when others have shirked their duty. This crosses political lines for them.

3. The AWOL CHIMPANZEE is reviled by a lot of Vets
For it is our children who are fighting and dying for Halliburton and Exxon---
while the privileged of Bushes class go to Yale, attend wine and cheese parties, and become rich, smug and comfortable on their yachts while driving their BMWs

18. Sure Not This One!
That little son of a bitch was back home snorting coke and thumbing his nose at the nation I served. I consider his AWOL - and do not make any mistake about it, he was AWOL - the most dispicable of acts and sure as hell don't intend to forget or let anyone else forget.

5. OMG!
I am sitting here laughing so hard. He is ripping up on Laura Ingraham. That woman is such a shrew. Go Imus! The Rush comment was great.

"Why don't you come up with the records from the 70s that you were SOBER?"

Hello! Can you say the right wingers are eating each other on live TV?

16. Iman missed an opportunity there....
He should have said "I'll talk about my drug use in the 70's the day Bush says that he didn't do drugs before 1974"

Would Jesus love a liberal? You bet!

10. Judgemental? I'd say panicked!
I think this shows that the rabid right KNOWS Bush* didn't serve and they are becoming totally panicked that this is all going to come out.

Imus about Laura...."otherwise brilliant people become idiots when discussing this issue!"

Boy, has he done a sudden 180! Now he's defending Shrub and saying he did his duty.

15. LOL, sorry. 'Tis true....
But, on the bright side, I think it clearly shows the level of panic going on in the right wing camp over this.

Someone shut IMUS up REAL FAST.

13. Yep. Schizophrenic ain't he?
Imus: "I don't think Bush* is that bad"

I did enjoy him slashing and burning BornAgainLaura, though.

Twas nice while it lasted.

14. Its going to be confusing when MSNBC cuts back to him...
after his 180 it will seem like they're showing a 'best of' show or something.

17. The Best Line............

Was said by Bernie after Laura hung up, he said she was drinking the kool-aid.

Imus also said these right-wingers who lie about Bush being AWOL are stupid and idiotic
for spewing these lies out about Bush.

He said they should just admit he missed the meetings, they admit he made up the time
he missed, if he made up the time then he was gone.

Laura Ingram is a fool, at the debate with al franken, tucker carlson, eric alterman, and her
on C-SPAN she tried to say Bush never used the word imminent so it means he never said
Iraq was an immediate threat. It was so ridiculous the audience just laughed at her, even
tucker admitted Bush said Iraq was an imminent threat, and that he just did not use the
actual word imminent.

She came off as a total fool, she spent 5 minutes trying to say Bush never said Iraq was an
imminent threat because he did not use the word imminent. Franken destroyed her argument
in 2 seconds, then everyone just laughed at her lame and stupid defense of Bush.

19. OMG! Look at Imus BIO at MSNBC!
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/3080530/


Don spent the normal twelve years in public school and emerged with no formal education ... a product of automatic social promotion. His secondary school experience was limited to carrying a cracked, faded rubber in his wallet and binding a female classmate to a tree with electrician’s tape. He graduated with no honors and no skills. Requiring neither, a broadcasting career seemed a natural for the young Imus and advancements came quickly.

.......

Ya think this got by the web masters......msnbc execs?
