Thank goodness Randi Rhodes is back on the air. She's a great Democrat and American.

[MohRokTah]

5. I disagree. eom

[George Eliot]

6. Can't keep a good woman down. Thanks.

She was the best researched of all of them on current information.

[SFnomad]

8. After Randi called Clinton and Ferraro "Fucking Whores" ... I lost all interest in Randi n/t

[Lord Magus]

9. In case anybody has doubts about her having said that...

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2008/04/03/air-america-host-randi-rh_n_94863.html

Yeah, no interest in listening to Randi Rhodes. Who refused to even apologize for that slime.

[AgingAmerican]

10. She self immolated in 2008 over Hillary

Turned into a cross between Rush Limbaugh, and Ann Coulter. So did Stephanie Miller. I will never listen to either of them again.

[Zorro]

19. Steph is a big Clinton supporter

[larkrake]

30. no she didnt, Clear Channel fired her over what she said at a comedy club in a skit

Hillary over-reacted, a preview of tyranny echoed by the whitehouse staff. Cross Hillary and you die professionally. But Randi is back, this time on a channel Hill cannot bark at. she is fearless and very popular. She liked Obama so saw to her personal life for 8 yrs. Now she has raw meat and will expose both nominees dark sides.A counterbalance of the drivvel coming from corp media. I am so happy.Yes I expect her to go after Hillary, but Hill is use to that. She is just as strong a woman as Hillary and wont back down. I have to credit her a little vengence. It is going to be entertaining.

The GE was going to be so damn boring, now we have some fun coming our way

[kimbutgar]

33. I was at the club that night when she called Hillary the "b" word

The energy was sucked out if the room and several people got up and walked out. I didn't expect her to be taken off the air so swiftly.

[AgingAmerican]

37. Um, yes she did

She was unlistenable for about 4 months before she got herself fired.

[zappaman]

11. LOL!!!!!

[leftofcool]

12. Not only no but hell no!

I don't listen to women who call Democratic women "whores."

[RBInMaine]

13. ENOUGH about Randi Rhodes! She called Hillary a "Republican" YESTERDAY. RR can PISS UP A ROPE.

[nolawarlock]

20. Which is precisely why the OP was posted.

There are so many elephants in the room of DU these days, I'm surprised there hasn't been a stampede.

[DemonGoddess]

24. ^^^This!!!

[obamanut2012]

42. Exactly -- it's very obvious why this was posted

[nolawarlock]

44. Yeah, and the elephants keep getting bigger.

Frankly, some part of me liked it better when those that are now spewing their hate over at Jackass Ridiculous could spew it here. Now they're just being passive-aggressive and posting their Hillary hate in ways that lack enough context to fly under the alert radar, especially without the ability to comment or put it into context. Kudos to them for mastering such vague tactics but it does make the discourse rather difficult because the real thing they're trying to say is that much harder to address. I suppose we must feel pity for them. They are in the death throes of their dreams, especially with Bernie poised to support our candidate. I can't say I didn't wonder if he would do the right thing, especially with the Jacked Up Roidicals going on constantly about how he's going to run independent, but then, like the 9/11 truthers, I think some of them will still be campaigning for Bernie when he's little more than a footnote on Ancestry.com.

[JoePhilly]

45. Yup, it's part of the search for ...

... "The line".

A test to see what they can get away with.

[bigwillq]

14. Cool

[John Poet]

15. Randi Rocks!

[JCanete]

16. Yep, Randi has remained consistent when it comes to caring about issues and substance. If you

don't call democrats out for the same things you've been calling republicans out for for decades, you are a hypocrite and a shill, and thankfully she wasn't.

[larkrake]

31. amen. she will gut both, tear off the masks

[bklyncowgirl]

32. If youre primarily a Democratic Party or Clinton Loyalist Randi is a traitor.

If you like seeing truth exposed and muck raked in an entertining manner, even if the wrongdoers are on your side Randi is great.

That's the divide here. As someone who believes that sunshine is the best disinfectant, I like Randi.

[realmirage]

38. She's Alex Jones in a wig. It isn't sunshine, it's crazy rays hitting tinfoil

[KittyWampus]

46. you really did make me lol

[jack_krass]

17. I love Randi!

[leftynyc]

18. Sorry to rain on your parade

but she's a pathetic hack who called Hillary Clinton a whore. I've seen calls for banning people on DU for using that word about women.

[RandiFan1290]

21. Too bad

We love her

[leftynyc]

23. So I can put

you down for being a complete hypocrite? Got it. And you use "we" pretty liberally there - I've been here a very long time and I don't love her - at all. She deserved all the problems she got from her big mouth.

[RandiFan1290]

41. We welcome your hatred. nt

[SidDithers]

22. ...

Sid

[NCTraveler]

25. She is a tool for conservatives and highly unstable.

That was proven as she trashed Maddow and Franken. She is a friend of the right.

[kimbutgar]

34. You obviously didn't listen to her enough

I am a liberal who listened to her for years. Never heard her say repuke stuff.

[NCTraveler]

36. I like to listen to educated people without stability problems.

I have heard all I can of Randi. No more. She has a long track record of trashing progressives, an ego that is second to none, and a limited grasp of the language considering her profession.

[Mike Nelson]

26. No longer...

...fond of Randi. But I'm for free speech. I'm guessing she will be an aggressive critic of the approaching HRCadministration.

[La Lioness Priyanka]

27. lol

[JTFrog]

28. Barf. You really have to have Clinton derangement syndrome to stomach her these days.

Mark Green, President of Air America Radio, said, "Her abusive, obscene comments obviously crossed the line of what talent at a media company could say," and added that the comments "were in the Imus league," referring to radio host Don Imus.

[MineralMan]

29. Well, maybe she'll get enough listeners to make up a

living room coffee klatch.

[leeroysphitz]

35. love randy. a real democrat. n/t

[obamanut2012]

43. shocker

[workinclasszero]

39. She is a putrid piece of Trump-enabling trash IMO

Departure from Air America

Air America suspended Rhodes from the network on April 3, 2008 after an event in San Francisco, California for Air America affiliate KKGN. While doing a 'Stand-up' Comedy act, Rhodes said on March 22, 2008:

"Geraldine Ferraro turned out to be the David Duke in drag ... What a whore Geraldine Ferraro is! She's such a fucking whore! I wanna see her have to stand beside her husband at one of those mandatory 'I have sinned against you; I'm a whore' kind of a press conference. Mr. Ferraro should have to stand next to his whore of a wife ... Hillary is a big fucking whore, too. You know why she's a big fucking whore? Because her deal is always, 'Read the fine print, asshole!'"
