There was a shocking segment earlier today on the popular radio/television show "Imus In The Morning." Watch this exchange between Executive Producer (and "quick-witted on-air contributor") Bernard McGuirk and Don Imus’ sidekick Charles McCord.
Some lowlights:
MCGUIRK: She strikes me as the kind of woman who
would wear one of those suicide vests. You know, walk into the — try
and sneak into the Green Zone.
IMUS: Oh, no. No, no, no, no.
MCCORD: Just because she always appears in traditional Arab garb and wearing a burka.
MCGUIRK: Yeah, what’s with the head gear? Take it off. Let’s see.
…
MCCORD: Exactly. She cooked with them, lived with them.
IMUS: This is not helping.
MCGUIRK: She may be carrying Habib’s baby at this point.
…
IMUS: She could. It’s not like she was representing the insurgents or the terrorists or those people.
MCCORD: Well, there’s no evidence directly of that –
IMUS: Oh, gosh, you better shut up!
…
MCGUIRK: She’s like the Taliban Johnny or something.

Imus In The Morning, 3/30/06
IMUS: We’re back here on the "Imus in the Morning" program on the radio all over the country and on MSNBC. Well, the official position, of course, of the program, is thank god correspondent Jill Carroll from the Christian Science Monitor has been released.
MCCORD: You bet, since now maybe now she can resume her work for the Iraqi people for whom she has, you know — this has been a person who strived for their, represented their plight for a long, long time.
IMUS: Well, good for her.
MCGUIRK: She strikes me as the kind of woman who would wear one of those suicide vests. You know, walk into the, try and sneak into the Green Zone.
IMUS: Oh, no. No, no, no, no.
MCCORD: Just because she always appears in traditional Arab garb and wearing a burka.
MCGUIRK: Yeah, what’s with the head gear? Take it off. Let’s see.
IMUS: No, no. This is not –
MCCORD: That’s why the Arab world called for her to be released, because, you know, she defended Iraqis. She was against the war in Iraq and, I wouldn’t be surprised if —
IMUS: Well, so are we. So am I!
MCCORD: Exactly. She cooked with them, lived with them.
IMUS: This is not helping.
MCGUIRK: She may be carrying Habib’s baby at this point.
[laughter]
IMUS: Shut up! I’m begging you to shut up. Both of you. I’m going to murder both of you.
MCCORD: Just because she slept with them doesn’t mean she slept in the manner he’s talking about.
MCGUIRK: Something stinks.
IMUS: You are an SOB Steve McCord. Stop it! I am begging you both. Stop it! Stop it now! Stop it! This is outrageous.
MCCORD: The fact is that she can do what she wants to do. Representing the Iraqi people, the Baghdad people. Sure.
IMUS: She could. It’s not like she was representing the insurgents or the terrorists or those people.
MCCORD: Well, there’s no evidence directly of that –
IMUS: Oh, gosh, you better shut up! Oh, my gosh, I’m going to hurt you! I will hurt you! I don’t know when that will be exactly. But I’m going to.
MCCORD: We’re glad she was not harmed. And that she was –
IMUS: Yes. Ok. Let’s move along here now.
MCGUIRK: She’s like the Taliban Johnny or something.
IMUS: Ah, you son of a bitches. I’m begging you bastards. Thank you. Please, now, welcome to the Imus in the Morning program, from the great state of Arizona Congressman Hayworth.
HAYWORTH: Now, just a disclaimer, now, the previous opinions stated by Chuckles and Bernie, doesn’t necessarily reflect the opinions of the congressman from the Fifth District of Arizona.
