For thise of you that complain about Randi Rhodes 'style'..a suggestion..
Read James Carville's "Had Enough?"...

In a nutshell his advice is this, having been pushed around by the schoolyard bullies for YEARS it's time to push back....HARD.

No more Mr Nice Guy, it doesn't work, look where we are. Whether you consider yourself a hardcore Democrat, a Proud-Liberal, an Independent or a Progressive, trying to engage these bullies in civilized debate makes about as much sense as spitting in a fan.

That is why I applaud Randi Rhodes, her style is smart, informed and aggressive. Beat 'em at their own game...Take no prisoners and suffer no fools...We're going after the big boys and we'd better bloody well bring our A-game...

Randi you rock!!!

Keep it up!!!

2. Randi handed Ralph Nader his balls on her first day on AA.
I fell in love immediately.

4. She's FUNNIER than Franken
Must admit she did take some getting used to. But after a 48 hour courtship, I can say I love her.

5. That's Right
If you're not willing to fight, then get out of the way and let those of us who are, do it for you. We won't demand your support, but don't stab us in the back either.

Look at it this way, either way, the non-fighters win. If we win then you get to join in the celebration, if we lose then there's nothing to tie you to us, so you still win!!!

You cannot talk to someone who wants to cut off your head in a civilized manner, it's just too damn hard. But if you can convince them that you're just as willing to take their head, as they are to take yours, it might make the difference.

6. It's great if she's debating a puke sympathizer,
but doesn't come off so well if it's one of our own.

7. You bet
There's no point trying to have a polite debate with these creeps. That's how they've taken over, because we were playing by the old rules while they were re-writing the rules for themselves. It's time to adopt their old fighting words, "I'm mad as hell, and I'm not taking it anymore."
