[...] America’s sweetheart, out like a light onstage in front of a national television audience? There’s only one possible explanation — a left-wing reprisal “attack” for the Rethuglican waylaying of poor, innocent Randi Rhodes. [...]

Randi Rhodes: I was too busy with doctor’s appointments to mention that I wasn’t attacked

This bit of logic comes from someone who gets away with joking (and hoping?) that Bush gets assassinated.

She should also say that she was too busy being a hardcore leftist liberal to tell the truth.

Perhaps she was busy figuring out what other children’s fund Foul Air America could divert to that station’s coffers.

This addict to alcohol viciously attacked Rush Limbaugh over his addiction to pain meds. She (like most of thel eft) spared nothing; showed no sympathy to Limbaugh and his problems.

As a result, I’m am not inclined to show her any mercy or understanding now that HER addiction is a public matter.

She says quite plainly that she doesn’t know what happened to her then goes on to say she was violently pushed.

That’s what I was thinking. Typical liberal -rather than take any personal responsibility, blame somebody else. Even if you have to make them up. After all, we still can’t prove it wasn’t Rove who gave her a quick shove.

By the way, exactly what was the “two sentence message” she sent? Did it say she was out walking her dog or in a pub? Because I was led to believe it was the former based on initial reports. Maybe she took the dog to the pub?

*** ACTION ALERT ***

CITIZENS FOR 10/14 TRUTH will assemble outside the Air America studios this Saturday at noon and demand that the network broadcast the true circumstances behind the savage right-wing assault on host Randi Rhodes.

We must not allow Air America to succumb to pressure and blackmail from the Bush administration and cover up this hate crime!

She has already taken her first step in the 12 step program…she believes in a higher source of power, she believes that a God entity can help her through her crisis…she believes in Soros, the Greek God.

She should also have her sphincter checked for alien artifacts.

When you wake up in a strange location, you should immediately suspect the Grays.

I guess my main objection to all this crap is that before this faked mugging story I didn’t know who this person was or that Air America was even still on the air nor did I give a damn on either count.

Do we even have some confirmation that she fell and / or has any visible injuries or is this just a shoddy publicity stunt?

Quick show of hands, how many of us have been “slammed” into by someone else, with such force as to knock us over (or even a little off balance) and not felt the initial “slam”? I think to accuse John Barley Corn is a bit unfair too. Mary Jane, The White Lady, Hash — this is the libs favorite Diva after all.

And as far as the “Blackwater Thugs” are concerned, I’ve worked with the professionals at Blackwater and they wouldn’t waste their time on Randi not a Rhodes

Sorry to rain on your parade, but some of these comments are impolite at best.
Speculate as you will, but the one thing that seems to be certain is that the woman was hurt. That’s not the same as watching someone slip on a banana peel in a movie.

Admittedly, after listening to the audio, it’s tempting to take a shot at her, but a gentleman wouldn’t do such a thing…Oh wait. I just did, didn’t I?
Anyway, she sounds like a classy lady [/sarcasm]. I hope she gets well (not sarcasm).

Her and that freak that Danny Bonaduce threw over his shoulder should get together and compare injuries, lawyer and lawsuit stories. (believe me, the BAR will be sued!)

This one is just an old MILF

Do you know what a MILF is? She has never been a milf or anything else close to desirous. Why do you think she is so bitter and angry. Liberals don’t come to be liberals because of intellectual decisions. They become liberals because of nuerotic identy issues.

Not only is it not her fault that she got drunk and fell down on her face, it is not her fault that she helped spread the lie about the incident.

Liberals: at times like this denial is their only friend.

OK – I commented before actually listening to her pathetic spin…I HIGHLY advise listening to it…again, her lawyer SAID she fell while walking her dog around 8pm in Murray Hill neigborhood.

Because she was BUSTED on Gwaker she has to admit she was at the bar – face down in grate – beautiful day in New York – went out for a smaoke – MAYBE I WAS PUSHED! yada yada yada…what a total joke.

SHE sent a 2 sentence email that said “she was mugged”

Nothing about being so wasted on 14 Vodka bloodies I fell on my ass but I CAN”T remember doing so I will LIE so I don’t have to admit I was so drunk off my bootie I ate a grate!

gotta love liberals, they will fairytale and fantasy away ALL their FUBAR personal actions and behaviors.

Exit question:

If drinking a bar out of their vodka and smoking a couple packs of smokes is OKAY, than why does Randi the progressive liberal need to lie about it by concocting being mugged to her employers and walking her dog and falling to her lawyer? Hmmm?

Anyways, Randi sounds no different than that truthout.org operator that lied about the Rove indictment – it’s still sealed you all know, right?

Incidentally, I think it has been stated more than a few times by others, but I could give a wit, crap, nothing if Randi Rhodes chugs down a fifth of vodka and a carton of smokes on her off time – it’s that she’s made her meat of Bush drunk talk, Bush assassination talk and she LIED about her own discretions to cover for her indiscretions and was hoping or putting no stop to wild speculation advantageous to her ideological fantasy that her fantasy enemy opposites perpetuated it in order to cover for her indiscretion.

She hadn’t eaten all day

OK…classic “I’m sorry I got so drunk and….barfed all over you house – fill in the blanks with extreme drunkard behavior etc. etc. I hadn’t eaten all day before I drank a 1000 whatevers”

At least when I woke up I had the good grace to get down on my knees–in porcelain bus-driving mode. I was busy–but not busy pulling the wool over anybody’s eyes.

Jiminy, NO KIDDING!

What I don’t get is the lawyer said she was walking her dog! not at the bar going out for a smoke– this was pre-gawker gawker.

So, she lied to her lawyer too?

Moreover, she was too busy reveling in what became an attack on conservatives (wow, what a career booster for a ((to that point in time)) failed radio commentator) to tell anyone that, in fact, she is simply a silly clutz, or perhaps a victim of an actual crime (who knows at this point when she’s lied so much about it?).
