A radio reporter in Philadelphia has resigned from her job after an angry message, left by her on the phone of a lobby group whom she believed were spamming her Hah. Took her a few days to come up with an alibi, I see.

Unfortunately, she left her name and number when asked to do so by the recorded message. Talk about carrying water for a disturbed woman. What this woman said did not at all sound like someone lost in the heat of the moment. Her voice was even and her tone was cold.

I say worse things everyday to creeps supposedly soliciting funds for local cops and firefighters.
Of course, the difference is they call me.

Gee, it's about times conservatives turned the tables on liberals and did the very same things to them that they do to us; namely getting us fired for saying something and forcing an apology out of the person being fired as well.
Nice to hear she was 'FIRED'. 27 years old and already a liberal wackjob.
To: NCjim
Wait a minute! Isn't this the same chick that works for NPR? Wasn't there a story here last week on this same situation but from the angle of the guy who got her nasty message, then researched where she worked, found out it was with NPR and went to the media to ask why she could leave scathing messages on company time?
Both were named "Rachel," but this piece doesn't mention who SHE worked for and that she was leaving nasty messages on the taxpayers dime. (Granted, I'm sure those Laptop Lobbyist people can be QUITE annoying, too.)
Unless I'm losing it? Must stop freeping so much...

Great excuse. SHE's the victim!!! Next, she'll be suing under ADA claiming she's got an illness that allows her to pull such BS stunts.

Yes, its the same woman. I haven't confirmed it yet but I was told by a friend today that she got a job with the ABC television affiliate in Philadelphia, channel 6.

I'm the Executive Director of Laptoplobbyist.com
It's been quite some time since I've posted but I've noticed the threads on the Buchman incident and have taken some interest.
For the record, I spoke with Buchman on the Saturday after Thanksgiving and got her to admit that she did, in fact, subscribe to the list.
However, if anyone wants more details on any aspect of the incident. I'll be happy to oblige.

I doubt I'm the only one here who is not surprised. As natural as liberals breathe, they lie.
To: martin_fierro
EXACTLY. This is the excuse she'll use from here on, and the excuse the next paper that hires her will 'accept.'

Q: How many feminists does it take to screw in a lightbulb?
A: Only one, dammit, and it's not funny!
Told to me by my college professor brother, strangely after his neo-feminazi wife left him for her boss at the lawfirm where she had been studying divorce law as an intern for two years, leaving him with their two children, one of which she LaLache breastfed until she was six. Lie down with Liberals, get up with fleas.

God hates you and he wants to kill your children. Just Rachel's god. Anybody see a cry for help in this? She screaming to evangelicals, no-I'm-not-saved, no-I'm-not-saved. Isn't the bit that cut off - save me! ?
Sounds like her way of reaching out. Rachel may not have a lot of hope in her life. She may be at one of those 'damascus' points. I know what those are about.
