I do miss "The Cardinal" (Bernard) more than I miss Imus. "Which doesn't belong and why?"

didn't you see McGurk's parody of the Cardinal as an anti-Catholic bias ?

Not really. He is a practicing Catholic and sometimes that can cause folks to say something which a Catholic might find amusing, but not ALL will. The parody he created was not linked to any living Catholic prelate. Did he ever go over the line with it, sure. But that is a risk with any parody. Check out some bits by Dom Novello is you want to see an anti-Catholic, anti-Italian agenda running throughout the bit (remember Fr. Guido Sarducci?). The "which of these things does not belong and why" was always aimed at Imus. PS: Wasn't your post a use of closed, rhetorical question to try to shape the answer?

Genuflect when you invoke Guido Sarducci. He's right up there with Yakov Smirnoff.

Genuflect when you invoke Guido Sarducci. He never paid off on the "Find the Pope in the pizza pie contest"

I always liked his commentary on Pope John Paul II's Album ... (read with a bad Italian accent) "He's no Smokey Robinson, but for a singing Pope, it's pretty good."

He's floating above a sausage grill in St Lucy's Parish in Newark, NJ. People come from all over to venerate him.

There was a comedian/singer back in the 60s named Allan Sherman, probably best known for the song "Camp Granada".
Someone dug up another song of his, sung to the tune of "Bye Bye Blackbird". The song was "Bye Bye Bloomberg"!

The title was "Hello Mudda, Hello Fadda." It was located at Camp Grenada. Which as his fans know was "very entertaining" and "they say we'll have some fun if it stops raining." Many of his parodies were excellent. Thanks for a good memory.
