When does Randi replace Limbaugh on Armed Forces Radio?

I am not big on the revenge crap, but this one seems fairly okay. Many of our troops are stationed in out of the way places where the only news they get about the States is what they get from the military itself. Republicans realized this and put Limbaugh on the air. After twelve years I think it is high time to replace him with Randi.

I suspect Fridays will be most popular.

1. Hey, that's correct.....
Which government agency is responsible for programming on Armed Forces Radio? Maybe the congressional oversight committee could take a fresh new look at this issue.

Maybe they can demand something like the "Fairness Doctrine" be a requirement for future funding.

Boy it's really great to be the majority party!!

4. I believe the troops should be the ones to decide
who they want to listen to. Let Randi be one of their options.

5. when does Randi replace Maddow
on KQKE San Francisco?

You would never think that Randi Rhodes was the FIRST progressive host we heard on KQKE, the way that Clear Channel is kicking her to the curb and shoving her under the bus. On KQKE, Randi is now cut down to 2 hours, and those two hours are from 9PM-11PM. When most ppl Randi's (and my) age are in BED.

But I do realize the scope of Armed Forces Radio, and the radio hosts they get to hear, is much more important than my little San Francisco whine. And I am glad to hear they (AFR) finally got rid of the drug-addled gasbag Limpballs. I guess the part about insulting people with terrible diseases was the final straw. Not that making himself deaf from his addiction to hillbilly heroin, and getting caught with someone else's boner pills whilst vacationing in a well-known sex tourism spot, are not any worse than that.

Good on AFR finally ditching that noxious blowhole.

(now can I have Randi back in a prime time spot?)

7. only on for one hour anyway
I am in the military and I can tell you that when I was in Germany that Rush was only on for one hour and it was tape delayed. If anyone were to replace him for an hour it should be Al Franken. I like Al more than I like Randi. She's pretty cool, but Al's show rocks!!!

ps. besides if you really want to listen to AAR get the premium service, download the podcasts and listen whenever you want. They help keep me sane here in Iraq. :woohoo:
