Don Imus to Bill Richardson and his "nitwit-latte-sucking staff": "Kiss my ass, gordo."

"He tells it like it is and says only what we dare to think! "

That's how MSNBC describes Imus and this morning was a perfect example.

The host of Imus in the Morning, Don Imus, the I-Man sent a message to Governor Bill Richardson: "You and your staff are hardly ready for prime time."

Your staff is arrogant and incompetent.

They don't tell you what's going on.

You have no business running for president with the staff you have.

Hmm, I didn't know the I-Man was a fan of NewMexicoMatters.

Imus, at about 7:20 est and 5:20 am our time, dropped a ton of bricks on The Richardson For President Campaign.  announced that Gov. Bill Richardson was supposed to be on his show this morning, but cancelled this morning.

The reason, Imus said, was that the Governor's staff called Bernard this morning and said the Governor (Bill Richardson) wouldn't come on the show unless Imus apologized for comments he made about the Governor earlier (which I missed), criticizing him for the manner in which Richardson's office handled a community matter re: an old school house in Ribera that community members want turned into a community center.

Imus gave the whole story, saying that he and his wife had contributed $25,000 to start a million dollar renovation of a land mark building, and old school house in Ribera, where the Imus Ranch for Kids with Cancer is located. Dedra, Imus' wife, contacted the Governor's office and requested that the Governor look at the proposal and let person leading the effort know whether or not this was something the state could help with. This was over the summer. Imus told the audiennce this morning that what proceeded was 6 months of b.s. from the Gov's "incompetent staff." Sounds about right.

I don't know who had the bright idea to demand an apology from Imus, but it was stupid. You have to wonder.

Imus went onto describe the Governors staff as a bunch of sycophantic latte-sucking nitwits in Santa Fe.

That the Governor hardly had any business running for President. Did I say that already?

I'll have more later. The bottom line is that Imus said many things this morning that I suspect the Governor has heard before, or at the very least, Contarino and Cooper have.

I just don't know if the Governor really cares about what the quality of the campaign staff really says about him.
