Do you remember asking me to come on with her to debate something re: Clinton? I think Jack Cole was still on with her at the time.

I declined, not because of you (this was pre Florida Freeper IIRC) but, because I perceived her as a nutcase!

“Didn’t he die during the Ozzy tour when the plane he was flying in tried to buzz a tour bus?”

No, this is some ditzy fat broad trying to capitalize on
it but she’s having a crash of her own.

Whatever happened to that freak Janeane Garofalo?

Recall that she said it wasn't hip to protest Clinton's wars. She's probably keeping off the main stage right now so as not to publicly dissent against the Golden Child named Obama.

But... but... who can fill her “ranting while falling down drunk” niche?

Hmmm... maybe Will Pitt is looking for a broadcast gig...

Randi Rhodes reduced to co-hosting Hempfest, if it isn’t booked already -how sad.

“Dude, like who’s that old hag...?”

“Ahh...totally don’t know, Dude.”

I thought her claim to fame was when she made an on-air death threats against President Bush...

Air America probed after ‘Bush gunshots.’
WorldNetDaily ^ | April 27, 2005 | Worldnet daily
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1392357/posts
The audio production came during the opening minutes of a href=”http://www.therandirhodesshow.com/randirhodes/index.php";>”The Randi Rhodes show Monday night, according to the Drudge Report. The announcer said: “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 four gunshots being fired.] Just try it, you little bastard. [audio of gun being cocked].” “What is with all the killing?” Rhodes said, laughing, after the clip aired.

Air America Host ‘Jokingly’ Calls for Bush Hit
NewsMax.com ^ | Carl Limbacher and the NewsMax.com staff
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1134311/posts
Comparing Bush and his family to the Corleones of “Godfather” fame, Air America host Randi Rhodes reportedly unleashed this zinger during her Monday night broadcast: “Like Fredo, somebody ought to take him out fishing and phuw. “ Rhodes then imitated the sound of a gunshot. In “Godfather II,” Fredo Corleone is executed by brother Michael at the end of the film. Even joking allusions to the death of high government officials sometimes bring harsh consequences to the offending radio host.

In 1996, when reports indicated that a lone passenger had survived the crash of a plane carrying then-Commerce Secretary Ron Brown, New York radio host Bob Grant joked: “I have a hunch that survivor is Ron Brown. But I’m a pessimist at heart.” Grant was dropped from WABC Radio over the quip, despite ratings that made him the top talk radio host in New York City.

#6 photo of Randi.

Looks like she’s gonna suck the foam cover right off the microphone. Wonder how she learned to do that?

And as Dan Ackroyd, in “Ghostbusters”, would say, “She’s a real nasty piece of work”.

This isn’t true. I just heard Crazy Train on the radio this morning.

(Randall William Rhodes DID look more like a girl.)

An Orchestra of Drones Will Rule Mankind With Sweet Tunes 
 

 

Okay, yes, these drones look adorable zipping around and playing keyboards and drums like a swarm of musical bees.

Don't let them charm you. It's all part of their plan. First you start to trust them, then they take over mankind.

Stay strong. Stay...wait, are they playing bells?

Aww, they're so cute!   http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qlqe1DXnJKQ


 
 
   This is so COOL!
Watch this squad of little flying drone quadcopters playing the James Bond theme.
The only way they could have made this better is if they added a hundred more drones playing the horn section from the original theme.

Hey Gene...good to see you. Yes, Jack Cole followed her. He was pro-impeachment but he was a liberal. Rhodes and him did not speak at all. I remember he hated the Clinton’s. He died of brain cancer a few years later.

She's back, sort of;

http://trofire.com/2016/02/19/progressive-radio-host-randi-rhodes-may-be-back-on-airwaves-in-2016/

Met her Kickstarter goal and other articles suggest she'll be back by June but only on the web.
