Don Imus: Obama an 'Empty Suit and a Phony'

Nationally syndicated talk radio host Don Imus says he will back John McCain for president because Barack Obama is “an empty suit and a phony."

Imus, appearing on Monday's Fox News broadcast of "Your World with Neil Cavuto," said, "I have personal experience at that. When I made my remarks about the Rutgers basketball team, which was mean-spirited and directed at people who did not deserve to be made fun of — and was not funny — I apologized for that. I didn't offer any lame excuses, [but] he refused to place into context either my life … or any of the work that I had done in my life," Imus said.

"As I pointed out to Al Sharpton, I slept in the house here at the ranch with more black children who are not related to me than either one of them [the Obamas] ever have. And then when this psychopath Rev. Wright shoots his mouth off, and I wasn't serious, [but] he was serious making outrageous reprehensible remarks."

Imus continued, “The first thing Senator Obama asked all of us to do was to place this clown’s life in perspective and to consider the context. That's nonsense. I don't detest Senator Obama at all, I just think he’s disingenuous and a phony.”

Imus poked fun at the current Democratic National convention asking, “Why do the Democrats invite every loser — Dukakis and Gore and John Kerry and Clinton — hanging around to remind everybody that here is another guy who couldn't get it done. I don't get that. It just reminds us that it’s been one disastrous campaign after another.”

As for McCain, Imus said he thinks the Arizona senator “has the potential to be a president in the tradition of Teddy Roosevelt, and I love the guy.”

  1. Imus has more than a few loose screws.  His opinion on

    anything is worthless.


  2. Wow Don Imus agrees with the old white guy. The only one who cares what Don Imus says is Don Imus.

  3. Don Imus is a racist Fvck with nappy hair.

  4. Sour grapes from a crazy old man with even crazier old man eyebrows.

    Edit: Mirriam. Hahaha! Perfect!

  5. Don Imus is an e***a looking for a butt to cleanse.

  6. With more friends like Imus McCain can't afford any more enemies.

  7. No.  Imus is a crotchedy old man with a ton of money, of course he prefers the crusty candidate candidate who looks out for the wealthy.

  8. IMUS IS A KNOWN RACIST AND A NAPPY HEADED HO- I DONT CARE WHAT RACISTS THINK, THEY CAN GO AND TALK ABOUT WHATEVER THEY WANT AT THEIR KKK RALLIES

  9. It is interesting to note that all the answers simply bash Imus and don't touch the validity of his observation.  I am not an Imus fan but in this instance he is 100% on target.  The Obama supporters can't face the fact that Imus made an astute observation and a correct judgment regarding Obama's lack of character and integrity.

    Those same people who call Imus a racist ignore the overwheliming evidence regarding Obama's membership in the phony religion that is nothing more than a racial separatist organization.

  10. Cnt u tell he just wants to get even and is mad cuz no one said he should be giving a chance. Besides Obama did rebut Wright's statements and has even broken away from the church...Imus should hush up cuz that's the equivalent of him getn fired.
