Imus finally get a good punch in the nose

richly deserved IMHO.
Hell Imus and his gruesome on-air lackeys have been saying gawd-awful stuff like this for years, I'm rotten glad someone finally stood up to him.
Of course, under pressure from his owners at NBC Imus as apologised and was today flailing around on air looking for an opportunity to express his regrets to the Rutgers Women's Basketball Team.
Imus, like most chat show tyrants, has a vast capacity for self pity and persecution mania, never more so than when he is blatantly caught out like this.
As of this morning he was flailing around looking for an opportunity to apologise to the Scarlet Knights in person whilst grousing bitterly about his treatment at the hands of his alleged enemies.
In other words, same old same old.
Truth is, Imus has been using racial jokes for years to maintain his he-man from Caucasiastan bona fides even as he sinks into a gruesome impotent dotage. He gets a pass on all this nasty palaver because he is a regular stop for various big time pundits and numerous a-list politicians from both parties. Democrats have put up with his antics because he is one of the few nationally syndicated radio talk show hosts who will given them a semblance of a fair hearing.
