      I think the answer to both those questions is "Yes."

      I've been wondering if Chris Wallace is nuts ever since he went to Faux News.

      Imus ain't making many friends at his new job.

      Wonder how long he'll last a Fox.

        Well if this is any indication, I give him three years and he'll be basically back to where he was...

          This is one of the funnier things Imus has said.

            We just got FBC added on to our HD package so I tuned in yesterday for an hour. Basically the same format as the old MSNBC days, same cast of characters, but the cancer has seemed to slow the I-man down.

            Had Monica Crowley on and they had some good banter back and forth. He was hammering Rush's attire with her as she admitted to having "dinner" with Rush.

            No where near as cocky as he was. It seemed OK if these morning shows are your cup-o-tea.

        I'm wondering the same thing. Ratings will probably be great because Imus' show is actually quite good, for the most part. The problem comes in with Imus himself. While he is a registered Republican, he is an equal opportunity slammer. He will slam down ANYBODY at ANY time. He is a loose cannon.

        I don't foresee him staying very long. He'll tick somebody off.

        Oh, about up until the moment he calls Michelle Malkin a "nappy-headed ho" . . .

      Paraphrasing your recent comment about Hillary Clinton, El Rushbo: The stores don't have shirts, socks or pants big enough for your fat, pasty white carcass.

      Well, there are an awful lot of innuendos about Rush and closets, so maybe he was trying to turn Chris on, it doesn't work for me. But, the question was a valid one because on the follow-up chat that Chris was having with anyone who asked, he did just gush about Rush. As I said on Sunday, Bromance was in the air. Chris is straight, but he was exhibiting every sign of a man crush.
