Audio: Randi Rhodes blows the lid off the California wildfires

I figured she’d recovered by now from the hate crime that wasn’t, but the evidence here suggests some sort of lingering head injury. The conspiracy theorist mindset laid bare: identify your enemy, identify some newsworthy misfortune, then connect the two in any way you can. As Rhodes herself acknowledges, this is easy business nowadays thanks to Google. Find the right combination of search terms and you’ll eventually find “the truth.” Click the image to listen.

Randi Rhodes eats puppies! Google it! (seriously. type “randi rhodes eats puppies” in google search and you’ll get results). Must mean its reality. :/

George Bush doesn’t care about the fire triangle.

tad on October 27, 2007 at 3:17 PM

I just love “Free Association Conspiracy Quest” radio.

T J Green on October 27, 2007 at 3:19 PM

Randi is clearly brain damaged.

The question that should be asked is whether her brain damage is due to alcohol abuse, that predated her recent fall, or a disease like tertiary syphilis. The person suffering cirrhosis is also likely to exhibit the kind of paranoia she demonstrated, as is the person in the last stages of syphilis.

No, I’m not a doctor, I don’t play one on TV, and neither is my amygdalae.

This woman is legitimately stupid, most liberals aren’t stupid they are merely ignorant and propagandized but this woman is brain dead.

Maxx on October 27, 2007 at 3:24 PM

Is it true that a midwife dropped poor Randi on her head at birth?

OK, that is a bit silly, but this is how the left gets going.

allrsn on October 27, 2007 at 3:33 PM

Randi Rhodes is hot!

Randi Rhodes brain injuries were sustained long before her faux-fall from the local drinkery.

It is even worse than you thought!

I googled “Randi Rhodes eats puppies and little children” and got 77,900 hits.

That woman should be locked up for life!

MB4 on October 27, 2007 at 4:00 PM

Duh, everyone knows that illegal aliens started the fires to burn the gringos out of the hills. Either that or we could go back to the fact that CA has wildfires every year about this time.

Buzzy on October 27, 2007 at 4:01 PM

This reminds me. It’s time to start drinking heavily.

JammieWearingFool on October 27, 2007 at 4:04 PM

That’s funny. I live in the area of the fires and have heard no mention of Blackwater. I also did my own google search “california wildfire arson”: no mention of Blackwater on the first five pages of the results. Not only is she a loon but she is a liar.

calirighty on October 27, 2007 at 4:04 PM

Wouldn’t you think that there would be some sane person in this woman’s life that could tell her she needs psychiatric help? Seriously, she’s nuts.

katieanne on October 27, 2007 at 4:07 PM

No. I don’t wanna.

Me either.

I have to listen to enough stupidity in one day against my will to subject it to myself willingly.

Sheesh.

Duh, everyone knows that illegal aliens started the fires to burn the gringos out of the hills. Either that or we could go back to the fact that CA has wildfires every year about this time.

Oh, sure. There you go being all logical and factual and stuff.

And next thing you’re gonna be saying is that the Santa Anas happened before the white people took over from the Mexicans, eh? Revisionist history, my friend, revisionist history.

No, but you did sleep at a Holiday Inn Express!

In all serious, this is way beyond the pale… maybe the theory about man splitting into two species is already starting to happen, and the dim-witted, ugly goblin-like creatures are already among us!

Can there be any other explanation for these people?

singlemalt_18 on October 27, 2007 at 4:09 PM

Whats’ worse is I can picture all the moonbats driving in their hybrids and Volkswagens, listening to her and nodding their heads in agreement.

reaganaut on October 27, 2007 at 4:17 PM

Keep talking. It saves us the trouble of debating you.

RobCon on October 27, 2007 at 4:29 PM

singlemalt_18 on October 27, 2007 at 4:09 PM

Yes, it’s a disorder called “lefty loon syndrome” and is a serious genetic disorder. Thankfully LLS is seen only in the genes of lefty-libtards!

Here’s what you can do to stop the spread of this genetic disorder:

1) Give generously to the LLS foundation by clicking on the Liberty or Death link for info on where to send money (sarc).

2) Do not breed with or allow these people to keep breeding (please take careful note of this second point DfDeportation, crazy lady is NOT HOT, she’s a crazed sufferer of LLS and/or too much drugs and alcohol).

3) Lots of chlorine for that gene pool!

Our government needs to provide more funding for mental insitutions cause there are way too many people suffering from LLS and not enough jackets and rubber rooms to go around!

Her theme song should be “I want to be Committed…for my mind!!”

P.S. Just a little trivia here; Can anyone tell me the name of the band and album (yes I said “album” I’m old ok!) the song “I Want to be Committed” came from?

Liberty or Death on October 27, 2007 at 4:39 PM

It a conspiracy that there’s no conspiracy

It’s all so creepy.

Early Happy Halloween.

There, fixed it for you.

We need an equal to Media Matters to expose this crap. At least nobody listens to AA.

Kini on October 27, 2007 at 5:09 PM

Actually she is very stupid. It would be much easier for her to propagandize that the existing military bases there are planning to buy up (cheaply) all the burned land to expand. Or maybe Big Oil wants to buy it up since there is arguably huge oil and gas reserves all over the western deserts. Won’t do any good though because they’d never be allowed to drill.

Maybe this is why libs don’t like capitolism, conservative radio excelling the in supply and demand driven media, and now the proposed voucher system? http://hotair.com/archives/2007/10/27/video-manufactured-controversy-of-the-day-2/#comment-754599

Without competition in the schools and the media, they can say what ever the want and it will eventually be accepted as gospel because there will be no way to debate and debunk it. Now does that sound like freedom, or totalitarianism?

El Guapo on October 27, 2007 at 5:16 PM

You know, for a radio “professional” she sure says “you know” a lot.
You know…

redshirt on October 27, 2007 at 5:19 PM

It funny. I had fires up near my property here in San Bernardino too this week. Blackwater has no interest here. Or will Rhodes say to me that the fires here was a diversion?

Captain Weenie on October 27, 2007 at 6:03 PM

Well this is America that is why nutjobs are allowed to say anything. God Bless America.

Lord.

Is it just me, or does Randi bear an eerie resemblance to Cindy Sheehan?

Just sayin…………

BacaDog on October 27, 2007 at 7:15 PM

WTF was that ?

SIJ6141 on October 27, 2007 at 7:16 PM

Randi R almost got it right… she’s on the right track, but her details are wrong.

The Fires were started by HALLIBURTON…

and were lit by Dick Cheney and Scooter Libby.

Based on a memo produced by Karl (Blackheart) Rove.

And The CIA, FBI, DOE, and the INS.

Oh baby, when Randi gets hold of this, the freakin’ roof is gonna come off the tent!!!

They’re coming to take her away, ha-haaa.
They’re coming to take her away, ho-ho, hee-hee, ha-haaa.
To the funny farm, where life is beautiful all the time and she’ll be happy to see those nice young men in their clean white coats and they’re coming to take her away, ha-haaa!!!
To the happy home, with trees and flowers and chirping birds and basket weavers who sit and smile and twiddle their thumbs and toes and they’re coming to take her away, ha-haa!!!
To the funny farm, where life is beautiful all the time…

MB4 on October 27, 2007 at 8:01 PM

So basically everything is a conspiracy with the Left now. If this foolish, foolish woman gets blotto and falls down, it’s a right-wing conspiracy; if the Santa Ana winds blow, it’s a right-wing conspiracy.

It’s actually starting to worry me a bit; it cannot be good for a society when half of its members are turning into irrational and paranoid hysterics.

Will BDS be covered under universal health care?

Kensington on October 27, 2007 at 8:42 PM

And people actually take these idgits seriously??! I feel as if I’ve lost IQ points listening to her.

StephC on October 27, 2007 at 9:41 PM

Maybe it was Blackwater that pushed her down while walking her dog…

RMCS_USN on October 27, 2007 at 10:57 PM

More fun with our vodka soaked moron friend: That proposed Blackwater West facility, right where all the evacuations were taking place? That would be in Potrero, CA, which is along the Mexican border and nowhere even close to “… right where most of the evacuations are taking place…

I don’t think that anything was burning south of Rt 8 and the majority of the damage was in Ranch Bernardo which is 15 miles north of 8 and probably 60 miles north of Potrero. The fires have been in North County and the Blackwater site was about as far South County as you can get.

I guess lunatics don’t use Google Maps…just Google Conspiracy Theories.

Pablo on October 27, 2007 at 11:02 PM

Two of the five arsonists arrested so far are alledgedly criminal aliens. Why is no one in the drive-by media investigating this? Oh, I forgot. They don’t care. It’s all Bush’s fault. Duh…

PoliticallyIncorrectSandy on October 27, 2007 at 11:04 PM

My senator Reid nailed it. It’s GLOBAL WARMING that caused the fires. Duh!

Arsonists, what arsonists? They’re GUEST cinder tenders. Double duh!

Mojave Mark on October 28, 2007 at 12:41 AM

I bet George Carlin agrees with her……,man.

I mean, I don’t even know what how to think.

there i think she was just having a hard time speaking with out her front teeth.

Mojack420 on October 28, 2007 at 1:28 PM

Dr. Daniel Pipes has written an excellent book on the subject of conspiracy theory. This mentality is nothing new, and has existed throughout the ages and all over the world. Why does it exist? Simply, because a conspiracy is merely covert teamwork. Get a group of like-minded people together who want to accomplish X, and to prevent obstructivism from people who do not want X, you keep your plans and projects secret. For better or worse, this is a phenomenon of human society that will never go away as long as diversity of thought and values flourish.

Having said that, however, it does not change the fact that people like Charlie Sheen, Alex Jones and Randi Rhodes are intoxicated by the free license that conspiracy charges invite. I could claim that the US government is covering up evidence that bigfoot exists, the gov’t would say I’m a billowing moron, and I would reply, “See! They’re hiding from the truth!”

When you have no talent, nothing to provide to society, you resort to this kind of infantilized self-promotion in order to get attention.

Randi Rhodes may not truly be stupid, but she is definitely trying to wear the crown.

thejackal on October 28, 2007 at 1:34 PM

I was just not up to listening to her, so I just read the transcprit.

Conclusion?

Brain dead…… from the ankles up.

But I guess that pretty much describes any “truther”.
