Randi Rhodes: Indicted Senate Dem Hopeful Alvin Greene 'Still Better than Jim DeMint'
Newsbusters ^ | August 19, 2010 | Jeff Poor

While lefties are foaming at the mouth over what Republican Senate candidates like Sharon Angle and Rand Paul have to say, they're not quite willing to publicly embrace or defend the antics of their own duly elected nominee, South Carolina U.S. Senate Democratic nominee Alvin Greene. That is, they weren't until now.

On the Aug. 17 broadcast of her radio show, Randi Rhodes went to bat Greene. According to Rhodes, the indiscretions that brought Greene indictments, in which he allegedly showed obscene photos to a University of South Carolina student and then talked about going to her dorm room, weren't really that bad. Although it's not clear if Rhodes was being serious, and it's difficult to tell, she claimed he was "sharing a wonderful moment of pornography" with this student and bewildered why such an approach warranted criminal charges.

"Let me tell you - you know my candidate for Senate in South Carolina is Alvin Greene," Rhodes said. "I left off where he was supposedly indicted for you know sharing a wonderful moment of pornography with a girl who was over 18 in a college library - in a college library where he had attended college by the way, so he still has his ID card to get on the campus, so. I don't know what law he broke, but apparently they say he did and they indicted him. And so the local TV went over to his house to see what his comments were about the indictment."

Supposedly indicted? You mean he wasn't really indicted?

This is the first I’ve heard of Rhodes since she did that massive drunken face-plant a few years ago. I didn’t realize she was still paid to opine. You go, Randi! Bottoms up, toots!

I am surprised that did not use ‘allegedly’, one of the most mis used words in the MSM.

Correct. Whenever something involves a RAT, it's "allegedly". When it involves a Pub or Conservative, the "allegedly" is nowhere to be found.

I think Randi has a crush on our man Alvin. She wants him to put some of those smooth moves on her!

Rhodes needs to be put back into the State Mental Hospital she was released from. It is tragic to have her walking amongst the gene4ral population. She is a menace to society, and a danger to herself.

Geez Randy we already knew that any Black, no matter what, is better than any White. That's why the great Obama wrote a book about his father rather his sleep-around mother and listed his race as Negro rather than mixed.

“He’s still better than Jim DeMint”

Nope, but sadly enough, he actually is better than most of the other Democrats running for office, he seems to be a lot more honest than most.
