Here...a common example (4/17/00) of Imus programming:  "There are actually people out there who want to continue this?  Who think that Al Gore is the answer?  Here's the question.  Is there a flip-flopping...lying...dissembling. . .two-faced...fork-tongued...campaign cash-chiseling...half-bald pothead...recovering tobacco addict - - with a piano-legged...bottle-blonded ditzy wife...and a pair of dead-eyed Depro daughters available...who would like to run for the presidency?  All he needs is Haldeman, Erlichman, Liddy and Maurice Stans...and Gore 2000 could start knocking over banks.  The only real difference between Gore and John Gotti (imprisoned mafia don)...is Gotti never had to have Naomi Wolfe pick out his suits."
