Have you heard this?

Air America talk show radio host Randi Rhodes has been suspended for has been described as an "appalling rant" at an appearance sponsored by an Air America affiliate in San Francisco. Appalling rant!!!!! Go listen to the 5 minute and 38 second clip that someone in the audience taped. Here is the link. Just be advised there is very strong language. I wonder if we can get this babe as a guest on the Dog House?

First off, on one hand this is funny. Air America is supposed to be the liberal answer to Rush Limbaugh, Anne Coulter and Sean Hannity. That being conservative talk radio. But if you listen to the clip Ms. Rhodes is not taking aim at the conservatives. Nooo!!! She is taking aim at the liberal candidate, or at least Hillary Clinton. And it she calls Hillary a "whore", where does that leave ole Bill? I love it when either side starts to eat their own. It does make for great comedy.

But there is another side to this story that I think needs to be addressed. Geraldine Ferraro Ms. Rhodes should not be suspended...she should be fired. Don Imus got fired...she should get fired. Everyone should be treated the same.

Well Ms. Ferraro, how in the hell are they the same? Don Imus made his statements on the open air waves. Randi Rhodes made her comments at a public speaking engagement. Mr. Imus' comments went to millions listening via his syndicated radio show. Ms Rhodes comments were made in a private venue and would have remained that way had it not been for someone with a cell phone.

Were the comments she made beneath contempt? Yes I think they were. I don't like Hillary but I would not call her a whore. Now Bill is a different story...lol.

But this was done not as a part of her radio show but at a private appearance. If Air America wants to suspend or fire her, that is there right. But what she did was nothing like what Don Imus did.

That is just my opinion. What is yours?
