Faux compared Imus to Dixie Chicks (free speech) + gave Bill Clinton's reaction
Apparently disagreeing with bush and hate speech are synonimous.
I liked Bill's soundbite: "What he said was racist, sexist, he must be a very unhappy man to talk like this about others - I bet there are black people in churches today praying for him to get over whatever caused him to talk like this.
Anyway, the Whooo there - was the attempt to equate hate speech with free speech (which Bill Maher did too)

1. Clinton nails it - he's finally given up on the bigot vote
Now Hillary should tell Carville and Begala to STFU with the Imus defenses or hit the road. She doesn't need them around.

4. That's the best thing that
ever happened to the Dixie Chicks..they say so in their song.."Not Ready To Make Nice".

That is an excellent comment from BC on the Firing of imus.
