Weird things are happening

Good God, I may have to actually start respecting Randi Rhodes. There was a whole kerfluffle the other day regarding a skit on Air America radio (is anyone still listening to it?) that portrayed the President being shot at several times, and rumor hs it that the Secret Service are investigating. So yesterday, Randi says:

"This was just a stupid, stupid bit!" exclaimed Randi Rhodes on yesterday's broadcast on the Air America network. "But, if it crossed the line, then certainly, there must be punishment, and if there is, I want to be punished so that I can actually say 'Equal justice under law.' Anybody that has stepped over this line of law needs to be prosecuted, including me."


*Snerf* Wow, that takes, you know, integrity and stuff. Don't hear a whole lot of that from the LLL (looney liberal left) these days. But it gets better:

Rhodes said she's been contacted by producers of NBC's "Today Show" who want her to provide them the skit to air on national television, along with an appearance by Rhodes.

"How in the world could a bad bit be worthy of a 'Today Show' segment, but the 15 years of talk radio in the wilderness of the conservative AM dial means nothing?" Rhodes asked rhetorically. "You don't become a media whore because now there's an opportunity to get your mug on the freakin' TV. It's not what I'm about."


Somebody please fire Howard Dean's Republican hatin', flyover-country alienatin' ass and put her in charge. If there were more folks like Randi Rhodes in the Democratic party leadership, well, I just might start listening to what they have to say.
