What's Noel Sheppard saying here in this April 14 NewsBusters post?
In a piece posted at his blog Wednesday – obviously before CBS radio decided to fire Imus – and deliciously titled “If the Left takes Imus, We’ll take Rosie,” DeLay described this deplorable event in a way that only he could whilst issuing a reciprocal call to arms:
Looks to us like he's calling Don Imus' firing "deplorable." Sheppard makes no judgment in this post on what Imus said.
And yes, DeLay is calling for revenge for the firing of Imus by trying to get Rosie O'Donnell fired. And yes, Sheppard concurs, calling DeLay's idea "absolutely delicious," adding: "They didn’t call him 'The Hammer' for nothing, folks."
In another April 14 post, Sheppard declared it "fabulous" that a black sportswriter called Jesse Jackson and Al Sharprton "terrorists." Again, Sheppard does not criticize what Imus said; while he refers to "this disgraceful Don Imus affair," it appears that, again, he is complaining that Imus got fired.
