don imus remembered

As white people everywhere scamper to prove that we're each more righteously outraged than the next, I want to instead reflect on the only other thing I've ever heard the man say. It was one of the top-ten laughs of my life.

He was speaking at a roast, as was Pat Buchanan. Of the latter, Imus said:

"What most people don't know about Pat Buchanan is that one of his relatives was killed at Auschwitz.

His uncle fell out of a guard tower."
