2. Im sure its been argued......

but Im pretty sure Ive heard of that drug addled gas bag say worse, and of course, he is still on the air. Not that we would ever want to stoop to their level is evil.

4. Here's what each said

Imus and crew:

IMUS: That’s some rough girls from Rutgers. Man, they got tattoos and –

McGUIRK: Some hard-core hos.

IMUS: That’s some nappy-headed hos there. I’m gonna tell you that now, man, that’s some — woo. And the girls from Tennessee, they all look cute, you know, so, like — kinda like — I don’t know.

McGUIRK: A Spike Lee thing.

…ROSENBERG: It was a tough watch. The more I look at Rutgers, they look exactly like the Toronto Raptors.

----

Randi Rhodes:

"What a whore Geraldine Ferraro is! She's such a fucking whore! Hillary is a big fucking whore, too. You know why she's a big fucking whore? Because her deal is always, 'Read the fine print, asshole!'"

----

Don Imus (as well as Bernard McGuirk, his producer) made RACIST comments.

Randi made POLITICAL comments.

Another difference: Don Imus annd Bernard McGuirk made these comments ON THE AIR.

Randi Rhodes made her comments on a stage.

Ever been to a comedy show, rock show, or even a party?

There's a BIG difference here. Randi is being roasted on a stick over an open fire for something that passes for comedy in any place in America.

This is wrong.

Flame on.

There's a huge differeance, and I don't see

5. "She's such a fucking whore" is a political comment?

Really?
