"It's Humans for Oil...Democratic majorities don't redistribute wealth...give a Democratic majority another chance" - Randi Rhodes

[DesScorp]

Rhodes was weepy at the end....she was upset because Dobbs and the other panelists were laughing at her. DUmmies are furious over this, ripping Dobbs for his "shameful" treatment of Randi. This is the same woman that called Ann Coulter a whore. She can dish it out but can't take it...

[Jameison]

"ripping Dobbs for his "shameful" treatment of Randi."

It's possible to treat Randi Rhodes shamefully?
Who knew?

[MBB1984]

I am liking Dobbs more and more each day!

Link please.

[lesser_satan]

HAHAHAHAHA! Randi, you're an ignorant slut.

[Christian4Bush]

This is the same woman that called Ann Coulter a whore. She can dish it out but can't take it...

And herein lies another tenet of liberalism. I don't know if Coulter put it in her book...I mean, how many times did Matt Lower and Alan Cryptkeeper (that's Colmes, for those in Rio Linda) say that the people against the President, primarily the Jersey Girls, are "speaking out", but anyone who disagrees with them are "attacking them"?

Thank God that so many of the American people see this now for what it is. I'd seen it for years, but I could never put a word to it to define it, until the time of the 2000 recount.

[DesScorp]

"Link Please"

Here ya go :)

[Rakkasan1]

ping for laugh at home...

[t1b8zs]

Randi what a pathtic witch....I used to listen to her rant on JNO in Pomp.Wish I had seen this

[LongsforReagan]

EXCELLENT!!!!!

[P-40]

she was upset because Dobbs and the other panelists were laughing at her.

I'm sure they were laughing with her...

[Antoninus]

Randi Rhodes is just another useful idiot tool of the communist left--a soulless ideologue whose god is materialist politics. That she cried on the air may show that she has a shred of conscience left in her.

Pray for her.

[Antoninus]

Hey, Dom Giordano is on that panel as well! Great work, Dom!

[philsfan24]

dom is the man!

[kjo]

Who in the hell is she? Honestly, I have never heard of her. I don't think she's a politician, she must be an actress or singer?

[cdga5for4]

The. Worst. President. Ever. She screams over, and over, and over again. What a vile, disgusting, uhhh, woman?

[Echo Talon]

This is same same woman that played "gunshot" sounds on her radio show as if it were an attack on the President...

[Izzy Dunne]

From Dummies United:

She said it started in the green room.
Lou was late and she got stuck with those good ole boys and they were picking at her before the taping...
and the laughing was the last straw.

[derllak]

I've never heard of her either - I keep better company than that, I guess!

[Virginia Ridgerunner]

Wow, they're pretty stupid lot over there aren't they! A number of them were trying to spin it that her tears were "tears of anger" and that "she kicked a@@" in making her points. Complete wishful thinking!

I clicked your link.

Thanks, now I have to scrub my computer.

[infidel29]

Randi: "Democratic majority, try it again you'll see, civil rights amendments happened with a democratic majority..."

Randi, hon, a majority of democrats voted against the amendments and folks like Robert Byrd and Al Gore Sr. led the filibusters. You had 40+ years to screw up this country that's plenty long enough.

[Antoninus]

Egads, I can't believe I actually watched that 9-minute blather-fest of basically ignorant talking heads (Dom excepted) just to see them laugh at Randi Rhodes at the end very. I didn't see any tears, though. They laughed at her because she claimed that "Democratic majorities don't redistribute wealth."

I want those 9 minutes of my life back!

Any tears that Randi cried were not the result of remorse for her position, however. They were hot tears of embarrassment sprung straight from her self-inflated pride.

Regardless, I'll pray for her.

[MikefromOhio]

Here is the link of the segment

[finnman69]

They ripped on her for saying Democats are not for the redistribution of wealth.

[BadAndy]

"Lou Dobbs makes Randi Rhodes cry on CNN"

A completely false headline. I watched the entire video to see Randi cry and it never happened, not even close. I hate misleading headlines like this.

[Reagan is King]

"Humans for oil"? She's a nutcase.

No wonder nobody listens to Air America.

[Proud_USA_Republican]

Randi is another self-loathing liberal who feels she has to torture the world because of all the crap she did to herself years ago. She was a rock band groupie in her youth. Shows from an early age she is emotionally unstable. So she ends up on liberal talk radio and expects people to believe she's a genius political analyst.

Okay, I watched that for 8 minutes, nobody made any sense and I didn't see any crying which was what I was watching for.

Now, I'm gonna cry.

[paul51]

If that segment is what made her cry (which I did not see), she suffers from severe emotional instability.

[DesScorp]

"A completely false headline. I watched the entire video to see Randi cry and it never happened, not even close. I hate misleading headlines like this."

Funny how even her supporters at DU saw her tear up...plus, but her own admission, CNN cut the last ten seconds out of that piece. She said she cried out "f*ck this" and stomped out.

The woman NEVER shuts up! She talks over people in a loud, irritating voice which really burns me. She has NO manners.

[reagan_fanatic]

One of the posters over at Dirty Underpants posted this:

Randi's personality doesn't take well to criticism, but Lou said something about the redistribution of wealth, and Randi said, NO, the Dems don't redistribute wealth! Sorry Randi, but that's exactly what the tax system does. I'm not saying that's wrong, but it does. If our tax system wasn't about wealth distribution, everyone would pay the exact same % of their income. Gee Randi, you picked the wrong words. It was a mistake, and yes, you make them too. Get pissed, then get over it.

Amazing - sometimes a teeny bit of common sense leaches thru those rotted, shriveled little brains of theirs :)

[kcrackel]

All I know is if you watch this Dobbs program or anything else on CNN then you feel miserable and depressed because the country is just in complete disarray. Dobbs mentioned a ton of "problems" with our country in this segment. He neglected to mention how outstanding our economy is right now thanks to the tax cuts.

If you turn over to FNC an check out Cavuto's show or any other program on Fox, then you get a very different take on things and you may actually feel pretty good about the country. I'm sure that if someone took a poll on people who watch CNN versus those who watch Fox, then the results would show that the Fox people are a lot happier and less depressed than the CNN viewers.

That poster is probably banned by now.

"Democratic majorities don't redistribute wealth..."

Who is she trying to kid? Ever since the New Deal, the RAT party has existed on a single foundation: the total redistribution of wealth.

[thinking]

she suffers from estrogen overload...common with stressed women....

[CharlesWayneCT]

I just watched bits and pieces to catch Randi talking. I have no idea what Lou Dobbs was thinking, inviting her on. She had nothing to add to the conversation, her comments were what you would expect from someone who had no clue about the real issues.

My favorite, and I can't believe Lou didn't laugh right there, was when she said Bush was trying to get Amnesty because Vincente promised he'd privatize the state oil company for Bush's buddies.

I was amazed the rest of the panel made it to the end before laughing her off the stage.

Democrats idea of a good spokesperson is someone who can shout loudly, and doesn't mind saying stupid things -- it has nothing to do with whether they have any idea what they are talking about (see: Al Franken).

[mewzilla]

Lou Dobbs makes Randi Rhodes cry on CNN

Well, that wasn't very feminist of her.

[joylyn]

So Rhodes' big accusation against Bush is that he wants Pemex opened up to foreign capitalist investment. This sounds like a great idea to me. Why is this bad?

[pollyannaish]

OK, I've listened to Randi Rhodes. Briefly, but long enough to know she has no right to get upset about anyone else's behavior and lack of sensitivity.

And to cry is the absolutely lowest thing ever. If you can't take it girl, don't dish it out. Ann Coulter may be our side's flamethrower...but you're not going to catch her crying and yelling "no fair!"

[Proud_texan]

"Who is she trying to kid?"

You'll have to suspend about 150 IQ points but most hard core libs like Rhodes think that not taking estate tax and giving it to the "poor" it's redistributing wealth.

But collecting estate tax and giving it to poor people isn't redistributing wealth.

I think it's because they don't think heirs are rightful owners of estates and the money rightfully belongs to the goobermint but I honestly have never gotten one of them to explain it in a way that didn't give me a headache at the lack of logic.

It is something I can't even begin to follow but there it is....

[Eddie01]

[kidwonder]

Why would you like Dobbs more and more each day? If you watch the whole thing he belittles republicans adn the President all the way through.

[Loyal Buckeye]

She cried because she's nuts.

[mewzilla]

She cried because she's nuts.

Not to mention a complete wussy.

[veronica]

This is the same woman that called Ann Coulter a whore. She can dish it out but can't take it...

Yep.

[Political Junkie Too]

She was a liberal local talk radio host in South Florida who went national when Air America started. Coincidentally, her listening area coincides with the West Palm Beach/Broward/Dade area of Gore 2000 troubles.
