When Larry King does another show with talkshow host...
They do not need to put Randi on the show unless the host can control the show. Something concerning last nights show most likely has been posted but, I am just getting to my computer and I just had to say it. I became so angry but I couldn't change the channel because I wanted to see what was going to happen and I thought that by the end of the show the host would get some control. I wanted to hear more of ed shultz and dennis pregger by the way they can keep that little punk off of the show too. The one good thing randi said was why isn't the little repuke in Iraq.

Randi was so irritating I was screaming, she talk over everyone and answered everyones question. She brings out some good points but its the delivery. If Dems are trying to get out the point to others they won't listen because no one else can have dialogue.They put this little punk on with mike malloy , thats who should've been on the show last night. I wanted them to be able to knock down that bull that Dennis prager is always spouting, he thinks that he is an expert on human behavior and the political parties. I know I am rambling but I just had to say this...

1. I can't stand her,
can't listen to her. She's hardly a good rep for what I think of as "our side." She's shrill and rude and far too self-involved.

On the other hand, it's Larry King Dead, and he's notoriously inept.

It's OK, but don't let it get to you. They're all weenies.

Feel better...........

2. She does the same on her show ...
she talks over callers. Someone will call and say " I was just thinking ... and then she's off and they try to get in and say something and then its all about what she thought they were going to say and then they are gone and I get so fed up with this that I change the channel. They can put Thom Hartmann on in this time slot he gives good info and lets the callers talk.

3. Oh I don't know. Randi is Randi. I thought she handled that
stupid little pug punk pretty well! And yes she does take control where ever she goes, bt that's Randi.

I'd love to see her on a head to head with Limpballs or Hannity some time!

5. I liked it
I think Randi did fine we sat and let republican talking heads run there mouths and yell over us for so long and look where it got us. you simply cant be polite and let t hem keep talking they talk up the entire show and you never get to point out the blatant lies. It is a bit annoying but in my view necessary.

8. I would have like to see some give and take between...
Ed and Dennis Prager. No one could finish their sentences I wanted the audience to hear that bull prager spouts and watch ed knock it down.

14. I understand
I just think if it wasn't
Randy talking over them it would have been one the repubs doing it ..it has been there MO for so long. I wish it did not have to be that way from either side . Still I think it was necessary evil.

7. I know it's hard for Randi to give talk time to punks like
that evil repuke. She should know this isn't her show. Also, I think because this was Larry King without King, she had no respect for the substitute. But, she was great. I like her. She gets upset easily, but that's nothing compared to Janeane Garofalo. I don't like her very much. But Randi? Hey, she is great.

11. Love me some Randi ~ she can't help it I don't think
Edited on Sat May-13-06 08:00 PM by goclark

IMO, she is so much smarter than the clowns she is on with, it is hard for her to sit quietly by and let them spill lies.


She really can out think and out talk the RepubliCONS and usually they shout and we are asking for someone with a spine to Speak for US.

Well Randi can Speak for me!

15. I have been yelling at the tv for years now...it is about time someone
told the TRUTH on TV...even if she had to yell it over the idiot who should have been in Iraq.

It hasn't been told on MSM for years: TEll IT RANDI!

16. I seriously wonder if everyone watched the same show that I did?
All this Randi talked over everyone the whole show is just so untruthful that I am seriously stunned by these continued attacks? And answered everyone's question? Ummmm, sorry but thats an out and out lie.

I did not say any thing about randi's message that was good. You seem to think that it should have been the randi show.

23. Agree! What she didn't do was allow herself to be interrupted by
the rightwing assholes and that is a big difference from not allowing the others to talk. They talked just fine and still wanted to interrupt Randi when she was speaking.

It's about damn time democratic representatives no longer tolerate the blatant attempt to outshout them that has been used by the repub reps for years. Randi was awesome, imo.

I'm not calling them out but I do question their need to have the truth known.

33. I agree with ...
not letting them hog the show and not let dems talk, but she wasn't on fox this was a format where she would have gotten her point across. I would have enjoyed it if she would have screamed or out talked Preger but we never got to hear anything but randi throughout the show

31. Yes . I watched the same show...
but I think that some here were so happy for her to give it to the republicons that, they didn't noticed that the show was mostly all of randi's answers. That's wjat I tuned in for so that I could hear them tell those liars a thing or two. I wanted to hear Ed shultz too!

19. Hmm. If Randi weren't a woman how would you feel?
I thought Schultz blustered as much as she did, but you said you didn't hear enough from him.

21. Randi did a great job...
I laughed when she shut the guy up by telling him to give his phone number on the air. I agree with you AuntPatsy.

22. I have asked this question on two other threads regarding Randi.
All four of the talk show folk were talking over each other, "blustering" as it were, but the people who have a problem with Randi's appearance have said not a word about the three men on the panel. Gad, I'm tired of seeing women put down when they come out just as strongly as men do. Randi is doing what a lot of us have been doing -- and what a lot of us have wanted other liberals/Dems to do: she is NOT backing down in the face of these freaking, lying, misleading right wingers. I say go for it Randi! We have to raise our voices, we have to keep working to get our points out, until and unless those on the other side shut up long enough that we DON'T HAVE TO shout to be heard.

26. There is still that prejudice against strong women even among
our own. I find I am constantly ignored when a group of guys get together. At our last meeting, two male members, whom I had previously conversed with and even worked on a committee with one found each other, commenced on a grand conversation in front of me and everytime I tried to join in because I did have something to add, ignored me. It's as if I didn't exist, yet I had to meet with one of them the next day. It took all my will power to put that behind me and be pleasant. He on the other hand didn't seem to be aware of how he handles his male entitlement.

29. I agree
Randi is doing exactly what I would want to do ..Talk over those bastards like they do to every Democrat on every show. I would love to see her have her own show on TV and yes I know some people would not like it but being polite is not working. And besides I think she's hot. :loveya:

34. I don't care about which sex they are...
That isn't even the point, The point is because randi is a democrat and I said she took over the show you don't like it. I listen to randi's show and like I said earlier she gives good info. My point has nothing to do with Shultz or anyone else she took over the show and I think some her are blinded by their hate of the right and their love for randi.

39. It's too bad you didn't listen to Randi today.
She overheard the two Repuke radio host men saying they were going to drink water and ignore her. That's exactly what men do to women to shut them up. So Randi didn't let them get away with it.

Hooray for Randi for standing up for what seems like is turning out to be a sexist issue after all.

25. I don't think one should shut up and let the GOP pundits lie. Tell it
Edited on Sat May-13-06 09:07 PM by applegrove
like it is. There was lots of cross-talk by the other side against Randi & Ed. It just wasn't as effective.

I still wish CNN would put Randi on alone to talk about stuff. But last time they tried that it was pre-empted by the whole Bush family voluntarily showing up for a discussion on Larry King that very night.

Put Randi on alone. Let her answer calls.

35. I think that let them talk to a point and then ...
cut them off and not let them finish and ramble on but sometimes I didn't even hear their point even though it would be lies. I agree randi should be on alone then she can express it all

36. Oh, sweet Jesu on a bicycle, one of these threads per day must be
required, I guess. We have one person who has figured out how to beat the R pundits and screamers at their game so our views can get some play, and we invariably have someone on our side start saying that the spokesperson isn't making nice enough. I love what Randi does. She should keep on doing it. We need someone who can be heard. Our pols are too busy congratulating each other on how much they are making nice and then sticking it to us with their votes on horrible legislation.

37. I am not saying she shouldn't be heard...
I agree with her but is she the only one that has to be heard! I would have been angry if it were the repugs. I get angry everytime I look at fox or hear their lies on the radio . I don't see why anyone hear can get the point . I want to know what show everyone was looking at. I think that everyone was so happy to see a dem finally shouting them down that they didn't realize that the show was mainly all randi.

38. The problem is the format...everyone has 12 seconds to answer...
...the history of the Universe...

I like Randi's style, if only because it's nearly impossible to get anything in edgewise. It's mental mudwrestling...what more do you expect...
