[babsbunny]

[EST]

2. SAAALOOT!

[libnnc]

[Spazito]

4. She was awesome today!

If she were to get her own TV talk show, I would certainly tune in!


A :toast: to Randi, :yourock:

[Sydnie]

6. Maybe it's time to give Sundance a heads up that we would like

to see HER on that channel instead of AL! I would love to see her do TV as well. She was ON FIRE today.

New meme -- the TRUTH shall set us all FREE!

[Tesla]

8. I thought she did a great job!!

[Just Me]

10. I'll bet her "liberalism" as a result of serving in the USAF stuck,....

,...in the minds of lots of listeners.

Meanwhile, the propagandist came off as a total Stepford wife.

Randi did GREAT!!! Her passion for the truth and for the people and for the nation shined, big time!!!

[pennylane100]

She gave the very best performance ever.

I do not listen to her regularly on the radio because she has a habit of talking over her callers even when they are agreeing with her but today she was just fantastic. I wish we could hear her debate the hacks on the right more often. I love it when they are totally demolished like that woman today.

[eleny]

7. Monday's show should be hot-hot-hot!

[Neocondriac]

9. Randi is up for much more...

than that bitch could throw at her. Randi, politically, is a juke yard dog.Buy that girl another Amerbock!

[OmmmSweetOmmm]

For Goddess Randi!!!!!!!!!

11. Salute!

:patriot: :applause: :toast: :patriot:

[patdem]

12. I did not watch..I listened...but seems I missed out on a LOT of stuff

I do so hope they do a repeat....she was awsome even with just the audio! :hi: Randi...hope you visit here to see how much we love you and how we know how VERY GREAT you did today on 'the span'! :hug: to Randi! And I am sure I can speak for ALL of DU on this and give her a :grouphug: And a well deserved :applause:!

[Just Me]

16. I am extremely grateful we FINALLY have her voice on our behalf.

Instead of trying to "control" others' views like the right-wingers are determined to do, Randi and AAR seek to empower people with facts and information and a zeal for the interests of THE PEOPLE!

:hug: to Randi and another :hug: to AAR

[patdem]

18. I could not agree more! Randi is 'of the people, for the people and by

the people'..not a fax (not f a c t s) talking point she so cleverly pointed out! What a GREAT WOMAN (I would say 'lady'..but I fear she would object!)

[I Have A Dream]

28. See post 25 for a link to the thread that has the link.

It truly is worth watching! :D

[kliljedahl]

42. The downloads here

Save & cherish. she KICKED ASS !!!



http://www.canofun.com/blog/default.asp

[SharonRB]

60. Thanks for posting the link.

I just played it and she did a great job. Someone obviously does her homework, as all of her listeners know, and someone obviously doesn't.

[kliljedahl]

72. She did more than a great job.

She kicked that bitch's ass.

[hootinholler]

13. Never heard her before...

Damn I'm hot for her now, Um, gonna go 'take a nap' be back later :P

-Hoot

[tech3149]

17. Damn! I thought I led a sheltered life.

I started listening to Randi back in March 2003. I was a fan from day one. When you're done with your "nap" go to whiterosesociety.org and enjoy what you've missed. She truly is the Goddess of radio. If you enjoy it and can afford it, throw a few bucks to support benburch and his fine effort.

[La Coliniere]

14. Salute!

You are the girl of the hour. Rock on baby!

[maddiejoan]

15. Prost!

[givemebackmycountry]

19. This native New Yorker says....

Randi is a tough, classy broad.

And don't offended by the term "broad" because she's a New York girl who was born in Brooklyn, and I'm sure she would wear that as a badge of honor.

That right winger that was spewing her lies and distortions was no match for this broad.

Randi wiped the floor up with her.

She was a typical conservative Bush-Bot, who was so cold that I swear if she opened her legs you could see a light come on.
Like Monica Crowley.

Randi is my source of sanity during the afternoon.
But, I would LOVE to see her take on right wingers and tear them a new one.

The conservative movement in this country is dying a slow death.
That is what makes them especially dangerous.
They are not going to go away silently or gently.

[I Have A Dream]

31. I also heard her say recently that she had been a trucker.

I LOVE HER! Nobody can say that she can't relate with the average American.

[stlsaxman]

20. HUZZAH!!!

:bounce: :headbang: :yourock: :applause: :woohoo: :patriot:

[Cyrano]

21. The wingnut broadcaster Randi was on with is named Janet Parshall.

Parshall's never-ending smirk reminded me of Bush. And her self-righteous tone was nauseating.

Randi demolished her. She not only sliced and diced her, but she didn't let this right-wing piece of trash get away with anything.

Every lie was responded to. Every piece of propaganda was pounced on. And every dose of wingnut poison was quickly exposed for what it was.

We need many more like Randi to crush monsters like this woman who sat there with an angelic smile, while doing her best to destroy the real values for which this country is supposed to stand.

[Catrina]

22. Agreed!! She was awesome!!

And she smashed another Rightwing myth about liberals when she said it was HER TIME IN THE AIRFORCE that turned her into a LIBERAL!! :rofl:

She said that in the military, you 'learn to reach down to pull up the weaker person, because if you don't, they can get you killed'!!

The Church lady (wow, did she ever look like that Church Lady, she was like a charicature of the charicature, if there is such a thing) spent NO time in the military!!

Imagine that, a FEMALE LIBERAL talkshow host, puts all the RIGHTWING CHICKENHAWK talkshow hosts to shame, being the only one to have actually been in the military.

And when the Church Lady stuck her fingers in her ears going 'la-la-I can't hear you', I can't HANDLE the truth' ~ well, it was simply hilarious!! SNL skit, except it wasn't a skit, it was REAL!! :rofl:

And in the end, after refusing to answer the question about Bush repealing the 1931 fair labor act to make sure that NO workers would be cheated out of a fair wage, the Church Lady had to admit that 'she would have to check that story, because she hadn't heard about it', it was incredible.

Then a Sr. citizen called in and told her to 'READ THE PAPERS'!! And the caller also set her straight on the lies about the Governor of LA not asking for federal help, backing up Randi who told the truth.

That insane woman actually told the lie that Rightwing talkshows don't screen calls!!!

Anyone have the number of her show? She's clearly not used to anyone questioning her 'fax-generated' talking points!! Let's test that lie, and see how many of us can get through to try to educate her and her listeners on the FACTS!!

Randi was GREAT. I know she doesn't like doing TV, and I don't know why she keeps saying she's ugly. I thought she looked GREAT!! And she was cool, until the lies got to be too much!!


Let's call that Church Lady who says the right doesn't screen calls. I never heard so many lies in one hour!! She will be now the poster woman for rightwing talk radio!! Talking points, and fingers in ears when facts are introduced. Her head nearly exploded!! What great TV!!

[I Have A Dream]

30. The Church Lady from SNL is perfect! That really does describe...

her! :rofl:

I also loved it when she said that they were so polite on Conservative Radio. :puke:

[Just Me]

23. I was most impressed with Randi's persistent confrontation,....

,...of the lies and propaganda that arrogant, controlling, self-righteous right-wing HO was pushing!!!

Randi refused to allow her to get away with it! THAT WAS THE BEST!!!

And, I agree,...we do need many more like Randi who are prepared to confront these anti-democracy, anti-american monsters and place back in their spot on political influence because they are HURTING this country.

[stepnw1f]

24. She Kicked Janets Sniveling Ass All Over C-Span

She unvailed the Rightwing Media. Can you say EXPOSED!

[cynatnite]

26. This was effing brilliant by the RW:

:rofl:

[stepnw1f]

33. I Love their Arrogance

They really know how to lose political points.

[I Have A Dream]

25. For anyone who's not seen it, here's the link to the thread that has the..

video that everyone's referencing:

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=104&topic_id=5010774&mesg_id=5010774

[butterfly77]

29. That Parshall..

Has always been an arrogant, hateful wench Randi showed her ass. She knocked her the f---out! Thank you Randi! Next hateful ass Mona Cheron will be out with her hateful a--.

[Tom Yossarian Joad]

27. I want to have her babies!!!! uh... er...

Never mind. That just didn't sound right.

[Gold Metal Flake]

32. Davis/Bacon is a sensitive point with the righties, isn't it?

I believe Randi is showing us that they do not want to deal with that. It's something they can't defend to workers and families.

[MelissaB]

34. Salute!

:patriot:

[bbgrunt]

35. she RULES!!!

[SalmonChantedEvening]

36. YAAAY Randi!! I love you MORE!!!!

So there :loveya:

[Just Me]

38. Wellll,.....I love her MOST!!!

HA! :hi:

[SalmonChantedEvening]

41. But but but.... I love her MOSTEREREST!!

:hi: :pals:

[Just Me]

45. *LOL*

I picked up on her "love you more" immediately because my son and I do exactly the same with one another: "Well, I love you,...INFINITY AND BEYOND!" :rofl:

[SalmonChantedEvening]

54. Buzz Lightyear love :)

That's just way too cute :D

[Walt Starr]

37. After seeing how she handled two Reichwing Assholes at one time

with both her hands tied behind her back on CSPAN (Parshell and whoever the prick was that was"moderating"), looks like I now turn off Big Ed and turn on Randi!

[SharonRB]

62. I"ve been doing that for ages.

I stream her in the afternoon at work instead of Big Ed.

[Walt Starr]

67. I used to

but when Jerry Springer became the mrning guy for AAR, I switched to a local station in Boston to catch Stephanie Miller. Al Franken comes on after her and then Big Ed, so I just stay on that station.

I'll have to switch over to AAR after Stephanie Miller.

I refuse to listen to Springer.

[SharonRB]

71. LOL -- I stream Stephanie from Connecticut, too

Our local station used to have her and when they switched to Springer, I started streaming. I leave that station on until Ed comes on, and then I stream Randi most of the time. Sometimes I'm just too busy and I lose track of time and wind up listening to him for a while.

[Walt Starr]

68. I used to

but when Jerry Springer became the mrning guy for AAR, I switched to a local station in Boston to catch Stephanie Miller. Al Franken comes on after her and then Big Ed, so I just stay on that station.

I'll have to switch over to AAR after Stephanie Miller.

I refuse to listen to Springer.

[immoderate]

39. Hooray for Randi!

Who do you want on your side? She rocks!

--IMM

[michael_1166]

40. Randi Rhodes might be right, but

her shrieking voice is unbearable.

That rotting corpse in turquoise was twisting the truth and playing games to discredit Randi, but putting her fingers in her ears was quite an understandable reaction.

[DURHAM D]

43. Michael 1166 - are you in the right place ? eom

[Just Me]

44. She doesn't have the kind of voice that produces a,...

,...a shriek.

I thought she was powerful. She would NOT allow that woman to get away with manipulative, deceitful behavior.

The radical right-wing despots DESERVE to have their lyin' asses handed to them IMHO. }(

[Spazito]

47. ROFL, I would dare to disagree vociferously

Randi spoke the truth and did so in a way that came across as unrehearsed, not taken from a talking point book unlike her badly performing opposition. Randi rocked, Janet sucked.

[in_cog_ni_to]

56. LOL! GREAT screen shot!

:rofl::rofl::rofl:

[0007]

48. As long as Randy can get the truth out, I take her shrieking

voice anyday. LIsten to her often michael and you'll get use to it!

[CatWoman]

85. that's not a "shriek", jerk

that's a Brooklyn accent.

[dalloway]

46. she's the best!

[tishaLA]

49. The C-SPAN host is a putz

He laughs along with Janet's snide remarks about the mics being turned off as just another liberal conspiracy theory? He might want to go back to his re-education camp so he can return to showing us how "impartial" and "impassive" C-SPAN hosts are.

[in_cog_ni_to]

57. Yeah, he's ONE of the hosts who's an OBVIOUS repuke. Paul and Brian Lamb

are the other 2. The 2 women, I "think" lean left, but I'm not positive of that. I think Randi took the guy by surprise with her BRILLIANCE! She knows something about everything important and they aren't used to having STRONG Democrats on the airwaves.

[grateful581]

50. Thank you Randi!

[Maat]

51. For those interested in a little bio of Parshall ..

(WARNING: do not read the following just after a meal:)

"Janet Parshall says the book she wrote with her first-born daughter, Sarah, When the Fairy Dust Settles, is a primer in apologetics. It gets to the heart of what one really believes, just like her popular radio show does. Janet and Sarah share letters that they wrote to each other addressing issues like body image and self worth. Janet says this is similar to the way Paul was able to impart wisdom to Timothy."

http://www.cbn.com/700club/guests/bios/JS_Parshall_112304.asp .

And:

"Janet Parshall Speaks from the Heart about Motherhod
by Janet Chismar
Senior Editor, News & Culture for Crosswalk.com

Editor's Note: Each Wednesday in the month of June, we'll focus on women, prominent Christian women of today -- and yesterday; women of the Bible -- and women in the public square. Today, radio host Janet Parshall talks about her role as a mother. On June 12, we'll walk through Israel with Women of the Bible. On June 19, Beverly LaHaye and Janice Shaw Crouse discuss their book, "A Different Kind of Strength." Finally, on June 26, we'll hear from Sandy Rios, president of Concerned Women for America.

She's the golden voice behind the microphone; one of the few female conservative talk show hosts in America. Janet Parshall, who spends each day picking the brains of world leaders, scholars, authors and politicians, yields a great deal of influence on and off the airwaves. She is a nationally sought-after speaker on public policy issues that affect family preservation and promotion, and has appeared on numerous national television, cable and radio networks, including "Crossfire," "Nightline," "Larry King Live," "Donahue" and "Politically Incorrect." Each Saturday, Parshall hosts "Renewing the Heart," Focus on the Family's weekly call-in radio program for women."

:puke: :puke:

I'm just betting that my poor clients don't get radio gigs handed to them that fit around their little PTA-stay-at-home-mom schedule. No, they are expected to work fulltime, sans childcare help, put food on the table in a pristine home, while finding time to deal with their snotty neighbors calling Child Protective Services.

I'm sorry. I grew up with these Republican phoney-baloney "stay at home" moms. They saw their kids less than anyone else with their "community activities."

:rant:

[DURHAM D]

64. Here is my take on Ms. P - she has spent a lifetime

denying her homosexuality. Her uber-fervent Christian practices are necessary to ward off her greater fear of personal actualization and slipping into the darkness of sexual gratification.

I have never seen her before but would bet my house on it.

Frankly, I have known several Repug women over the years with this very problem and after advising them to get on with their lives and stop acting like they are somehow better than others, I no longer take their drunk late night calls.

[Maat]

70. Well said.

I always think that people who want to tell everyone else with whom they can live/love have sexuality-related self-questioning going on.

[proud patriot]

52. Amen

:patriot:

[sagesnow]

53. Randi Rocks! A 6 on the Richter scale

A level 6 quake "causes damage to poorly constructed buildings and other structures within 10km".
(http://www.pgc.nrcan.gc.ca/seismo/eqinfo/richter.htm)

Nice work Randi.

[Cocoa]

55. she was incredible

how could anyone look at that exchange and have ANY doubt about what's going on in this country?

[boston bean]

58. salut

[smoogatz]

59. Randi's great. And what a godawful, simpering, patronizing nitwit

that Parshall woman is. Are we sure she's not a robot?

[bunny planet]

61. I am so upset I missed it. Will it be rebroadcast?

Go Randi. We love you and we love you more.

[SharonRB]

63. Check out the link posted upthread, Bunny

:hi:

I just watched it and Randi rocked, as usual.

And, no, I love her more!

[bunny planet]

66. Thanks Sharon, as usual , I post before I read the entire thread.

[Just Me]

65. I encourage you to view the link posted above.

I've watched it several times. :bounce:

[bunny planet]

69. OMG Randi wiped the floor with the Church Lady, I just watched the video.

Dana Carvey's got nothing on that woman. She actually stuck her fingers in her ears and said 'I can't hear you.' Randi mentions that conservative talk show hosts can't even speak without their talking points and this woman proved her right, she was literally unable to say anything other than what she had prepared. Then, it was perfect, the caller mentions that she should read the WaPo because the story about the repealing of the Davis Bacon act is right there in the paper.

Randi, you so rock!!!! I'm sending this thread off to you so you can see how much we love you (ignore the people complaining about your voice, I love your passionate, truthful, voice).

[Maat]

73. Woohoo!

I'm proud of Randi!

[bunny planet]

74. Btw Randi, since I'm sending this appreciation thread to you.

Did I mention how stunning you looked, as well as being brilliant and truthful and awesome in everyway. Stunning.

[The Witch]

75. :kiss: Randi :kiss:

We love you so much here at DU it's almost unfathomable.

I was waiting for you to up and "bounce your boobies" for the Church Lady!

[RSchewe]

76. Recommended, The Davis Bacon Act exchange was priceless.

So is that picture of the church lady with her fingers in her ears.

[nicknameless]

77. "Oh Randi, my Queen!"

:patriot:

[jarnocan]

78. thanks I like the video link too.

Nice too laugh a bit- so much crap going on! We have to stop doing business as usual. www.worldcantwait.org Glad they are talking about this too, on Air America, the date means a lot to me.

[FlaGranny]

79. Didn't Randi say that

the only reason she said she'd do that show was because she was going to get to meet Ronnie Reagan? Or am I just imagining things? Anyway, if so, I hope she got to meet Ronnie.

Randi needs to be a consultant for ALL election campaigns of all the Democrats from now on. They need someone who KNOWS what's up.

[DearAbby]

82. Oh My Randi...DearAbby Is so proud of you

smacked that woman hard sweetie! I'd bounce my boobies too, but gravity already has them at my knees, cause serious body injury...Gawd woman you're awsome!

[Blue Belle]

87. You are mixing things up...

but that's okay. She never does TV, and she's has 2 TV appearances back to back. Randi is doing "Coast to Coast" on MSNBC on Monday only because she wants to meet Ron Reagan Jr. She agreed to do this CSPAN gig because she's a 'SPAN addict and wanted to be on it. I think you can catch her on Ron Reagan's show at 12:00pm EST

[Twist_U_Up]

80. Randi's a babe !!!

I listen to her daily. She not only is hilarious,smart.witty and powerful,she's pretty easy on the eyes too :loveya:

[stepnw1f]

81. Damn She's Hot!

She looked especially hot on CSPAN.

[Nostradammit]

83. Any list of America's sexiest women that doesn't have Randi near the top

is worthless.


HEY RANDI! If you're ever in Oregon and need a date, please drop me a line. I'm married and would get my ass kicked, but what the hell ~

:toast:

[Shredr]

84. Hear, hear!

Love Randi!

[MissMarple]

86. Randi is one tough cookie.

She made the church lady look like an idiot and a lying propagandist.

[Blue Belle]

88. Randi needs her own TV show...

She Rocks!! :)

[Pepper32]

89. I second that...

She smacked that RW up pretty good. :rofl:

Love ya, Randi!!!

[Roxy66]

90. Love ya Randi!!!

Thanks for standing up for We The People...!!!

[Tesla]

91. Let's send the link to SNL and Jon Stewart!!

Oh yeah, KEITH!!!!!!
