Is Randi Rhodes as angry as RL?

I can't type his name out, my fingers won't let me, but you know who I mean? This is my first time listening and she's mad about everything, a real ranter.

1. Passionate! Commited! Focused!!

That's our Randi!

3. And...

Unlike some pig-like semi-intelligent organisms, she can do her thing AND tell the truth at the same time.

Whereas the pig-like, semi-intelligent organism just seems to have no real relationship with any objective reality.

7. Pigs are smarter

but I get your point.

2. Hey

Knew we'd meet here eventually!

Never really listened to RL the limpballs guy so can't compare. She sure doesn't lie like he does though.

5. Hey, Nite Owl!!

:hi:

No, no lies, no agenda but a lot of huff.

4. She is too grouchy and I really hate people that talk ugly about their

moms. She is just too NY for me. She often has interesting things to say and yes she is angry but so am I and it's good to have an angry liberal on the air. But all in all, I just don't like her style. I need someone meaner than Al but not as strident as Randi. Wanted to add that this is certainly only one person's opinion.

6. You've obviously never listened to Mike Malloy.

When he started at AAR I feared he would tank the whole system, but he's doing a great job. I like him more every night.

10. Tried his show about twice and just could not take it. It wasn't that he

was wrong, he just brought me down and that was before the election. Something I sure do not need.

8. Rhodes is very angry.

And when I was listening to her taking calls regarding the Ukraine last week, she wouldn't let half the callers finish their points. I'm glad we have people like her - vocal, fresh, progressive - but I think Air America chose her for her ratings potential rather than her communication skills.

11. Right or left, I hate it when people are cut off, ridiculed and not

allowed to make a point. The callers need to be helped along but not so rudely and without any humanity. That to me is the hallmark of the wingbag rush and I do not want it to be our defining person also.

12. You're right

But I hate to condemn. I might be just as bad if they gave me a microphone and some bandwidth. "You're an arse, no calls for you!"

13. Ah, but that is not our job. We are the lowly listeners. That is a job for

the professionals and some do it better than others. Actually, Al is often too kind but I still like to hear him talk to people more than I do Randi. An adroit and swift manner to eliminate without eviscerating would be perfect.

9. She's doesn't exactly have the kind of personality

that could win the hearts and minds of the average listener who's fed up with Bush. Only sometimes does she seem to know what she's talking about.

They're mine!
