Randi Rhodes just asked for a dollar from all of us
to http://thealliancefordemocracy.org
She wants us to go slow though so that we don't crash the website.

3. Ha ha. If one donation crashes their server, then we're doomed.
That is scary, or on the bright side, maybe everyone is rushing to donate and I was just the first lucky one to get through.

4. Is it me? Randi Rhodes Is Annoying
She is my least favorite host on Air America, I think they could have done better. Too whiny.

5. At least she's out there trying to regain our voice. We should appreciate
any voice even a "whiny" one.

11. Irrelevant
The number of my post has nothing to do with my opinion of Randi Rhoades. I'm not saying she's a bad person or anything, I just find her style to be grating - she's not a good talk-show host.

12. Where are you from?
That kind of voice used to annoy me, but after living in New York for 20 years I have come to appreciate a voice like Randi's.

13. it's you. hannity and his cronies have a monopoly on the whining market.
randi is one of the few liberal voices out there that's doing her job. she deserves nothing but kudos right now.

16. Randi has a tendency to grow on you, and not in a nasty way
let her whine, she's an opinionated woman

8. Make sure that handling fees don't negate your gift!
I gave bbv $25 the other day. I want to give more, but I gave more than I could to the DNC. I will give more when I can.

15. I have a problem with all these different efforts

Too many grassroots efforts all doing the same thing.

I'm not pitching in another nickel until I see some of them coordinating their activities and working together. I also want to see some kind of charter that spells out how the money is being spent, how much goes to "administrative costs", etc.

Not impuning this particular effort. I'm sure it's fine.

17. I only donated $10
I wanted to give more, but I already gave $50 to BBV & $30 to NAACP (I'm white but I think we all need to support progressive organizations) this week & I need to watch my budget. :(
