Of course Imus', just like neo-nazis, have a right to free speech does that mean we should allow them using the public airwaves to spew their slurs, not to mention recieve a large salary for it?
Note that there has been an average of 180+ bombings per day in Iraq since the invasion, when you consider that along with all the violence from the "coalition" occupiers 500 killed a day average doesn't seem so impossible.
