Sam Seder filling in for Randi today (Tues) and Weds.

http://talkingradio.blogspot.com/2007/10/randi-rhodes-is-victim-of-violent.html

If you are on the DU today, Randi, we love you and wish you feel better soon. Don't let those f*cking bastards killyour spirit.... they are worse than scum.

Beautiful Randi

Several liberal blogs, including the Randi Rhodes Message Board and Democratic Underground have logged numerous posts on the Rhodes mugging with most of the posters expressing concern about the condition of the popular lib talker.

Morning talk host, Lionel filled in for Rhodes on Monday, but did not say anything about why she wasn�t on hand to do her show. The Randi Rhodes board reports that Sam Seder, who does a Sunday afternoon show for AAR, will be filling on Tuesday and Wednesday.

Elliott was extremely agitated when he reported on the incident. He opened his show by saying "it is with sadness that tonight I inform you that my Air America colleague Randi Rhodes was assaulted last night while walking her dog near her New York City home."

Pointing out that Rhodes was wearing a jogging suit and displayed no purse or jewelry, Elliott speculated that "this does not appear to me to be a standard grab the money and run mugging."

"Is this an attempt by the right wing hate machine to silence one of our own," he asked. "Are we threatening them. Are they afraid that we're winning. Are they trying to silence intimidate us."

2. I was right. It wasn't a mugging.

I've been mugged four times and only hurt, slightly, once. They want the money not the fuss. These bastards wanted to hurt her.

May each of them be afflicted with a condition so severe it requires cutting edge stem cell treatment. While they wait, may ever pore be a pustulent sore.

3. I'm shocked to hear this...

I may not listen to Randi's show much anymore, but god damn it is very disturbing to hear this news.

Here's hoping she recovers as quick as possible.

I'd love to get my hands on the rat-bastard piece of sub-human scum that did this to her....

5. Thom Hartmann just read

Edited on Tue Oct-16-07 10:48 AM by never_get_over_it

a memo from AAR on his Portland show and it stated the incident was not a hate crime...little criptic but seemed like the rumors are WAY out of hand

and on edit and on another subject:

I'm sorry Randi has been hurt - but I'm VERY glad that Sam is substituting - taking Sam off from his five day a week show is one of the DUMBEST things AAR has ever done....and I miss him - was great to have him sit in for Malloy last week....

7. I've had my disagreements with Randi, but I wish her all the best and a full recovery.

I just wonder... why didn't John Kerry do anything to stop the attacker?

Sorry.

That just came out.

Randi, if you read this, I hope you have a speedy and full recovery, and that you'll be back on the air soon.

Even though I'm not listening anymore.

I hope they catch the bastard.
