AIR AMERICA RADIO INVESTIGATED AFTER BUSH 'GUNSHOTS'
**Exclusive**
The red-hot rhetoric over Social Security on liberal talkradio network AIR AMERICA has caught the attention of the Secret Service, the DRUDGE REPORT has learned.
Government officials are reviewing a skit which aired on the network Monday evening -- a skit featuring an apparent gunshot warning to the president!
The announcer: "A spoiled child is telling us our Social Security isn't safe anymore, so he is going to fix it for us. Well, here's your answer, you ungrateful whelp: [audio sound of 4 gunshots being fired.] Just try it, you little bastard. [audio of gun being cocked]."
The audio production at the center of the controversy aired during opening minutes of The Randi Rhodes Show.
"What is with all the killing?" Rhodes said, laughing, after the clip aired.
"Even joking about shooting the president is a crime, let alone doing it on national radio... we are taking this very seriously," a government source explained.
[A Randi Rhodes Fan site is offering an mp3 clip of the broadcast.]

Whoops, that last line should also be in italics, it's a quote from the article
Did Air America actually celebrate the Pope's death on air?
More up now ............

PLEASE
I hope this gets ignored. Err Amerika is desperately thrashing in its death throes. Let em die!
If this gets attention..as they say...any publicity is..etc.
I listened to R.Rhodes one day and I swear....all I heard was, "OMG, like OMG. Bush is so stupid. I can't believe these people listen to this guy. He's stupid. OMG. OMG. Just OMG. We have to do something....like...go to DC and protest or something. Just OMG."
That was about it. Now, you don't have to tune in as I saved you 5 minutes of your life.
It was a bash-a-thon. And their message boards were loaded with remarks like "good riddence", "it's about time" etc. Nothing but pure vile and hatred.Check out Randi Rhodes message boards and see for yourself. Anti-Christian, anti-Semitic, anti-American bile spewing in every direction.
Assassination. Haw haw. *snort* "Ass." Haw haw.
They are, for you. Socialism is an inherently evil belief system and as they lose ground the facade slips to reveal their true selves. They actually intend to rule wisely (according to their perverted concept of "fair"), but they intend to rule.

Contrast that to what Delay said about Judge Greer. Who's inciting violence again?
yeah,...but I still can't understand why XM's CEO thinks AirAmerica is good for the roster?!??!!
This is NOT THE FIRST TIME this hag used bullet sounds advocating the killing Of Prez Bush! I heard her make them with her own mouth MONTHS AGO....sounds of bullets and referred to Bush. I was shocked that she wasn't yanked off the air and taken to jail THEN. How can they let her get away with this?
I'm sure the same thing that happened to Craig Kilborn will happen to them. That is, nothing.
I do.
I started listening last year, and immediately labeled it the "Bevis and Butthead" Radio network: Hours of name-calling punctuated by personal gay (as in pervert) personal adventures and Public Service announcements.
"Losers Radio" would also fit.
A little of that goes a long way. I listened for an hour each morning and night while commuting, but had to take a break after a month, to recover my sanity.
Now I listen a few days each time. Nothing has changed.
Excellent!
