A Chance for Good Judgement: Randi on BO.com
by Pacific John, Fri Apr 04, 2008 at 01:06:06 PM EST

New information uncovered by Tennessee Guerrilla Woman indicates that Randi Rhodes' Green960 Imus/Limbaugh imitation was not just a radio station event, but was promoted on Barack Obama's website.

Click through to No Quarter for a complete screen cap of the Obama website page.



While the event is not tied directly to Obama's staff, Obama supporters publicized the event on the campaign website. A number of Obama supporters from his website were there to inappropriately cheer Rhodes.

Simply, Sen. Obama should renounce Randi Rhodes and chastise Obama supporters in the SF audience who acted inappropriately

:eyes:

[ronnykmarshall]

2. Shhhhhh!

You'll wake the baby.

[DarienComp]

3. oh whatever, already.

This is all a huge game.

[niceypoo]

11. Ah, so it is a 'game' when Obama does it...

interesting...

[jillan]

4. Interesting,

[K Gardner]

5. So, Hillary should RENOUNCE the picture of Obama with a bullet wound in his head and

a gun pointed at it.. that was posted on myspace, supported and cheered and passed around by Hillary supporters?

Get a fucking life.

[Hepburn]

7. Exactly.....! n/t

[TK421]

6. Body odor.com?

why would I want to go there? It must REALLY stink!

[madrchsod]

8. oh god that`s awful!

[Major Hogwash]

9. Obama should renounce Randi Rhodes?

Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!!!!!!!

Fat chance of that happening!!

[niceypoo]

12. He doesn't have the balls to do that...

Imagine the uproar if someone speaking at a Hillary event said the equivelant about Obama...

Love the double standard

[Major Hogwash]

17. There's no double standard - Randi is not on Obama's staff.

Like the racist Ferraro was!!

Now there's a true example of a racist POS if I ever saw one!

[Evergreen Emerald]

21. wait...it is promoted on his website. His staff is in attendance to cheer

and highlight the attacks on Clinton...and that is distance?

Furthermore: what Ferraro said was not racist. Good God, can't you think for yourself? It was a political reaction distorting and twisting the meaning to gain political points by Obama.

What the hell? Has everyone lost their minds? THINK PEOPLE.

[GarbagemanLB]

22. 'Think'? How about you realize that it was a USER-GENERATED webpage. Nothing to do with BO's officia

l campaign. THINK PEOPLE.

[Upton]

10. Why have you posted this twice?

[Coexist]

13. silliness promoted on mydd...

who woulda' thunk it.

[PA Democrat]

14. So after all of the high fiving dies down over at the No Quarter website,

which talk show host are you going to get fired next? Saw some pretty despicable comments over there:

"Now it is time to topple Roland Martin."

"Randi Rhodes is just the first of many more to fall."

"The Obama-Left has been abusive all over the place, from caucus sites to Web sites to “liberal” radio. It’s about time they toned down their rhetoric. I hope they all get this message."

And there were more I'm sure, but that was all I could stomach. Joe McCarthy would be proud.

I think what Randi said was despicable, but the type of witch hunt being proposed over there to silence the voice of anyone who does not worship your candidate is vile.

15. emilyg, I have heard this on TV today, I think mid morning

And the little I listened to it the commentator stated RR and Obama should apologize for her behavior but she shouldn't be fired. Personally, I don't care if either one apologize as long as it's perfectly clear that the media covers the incident and that RR was representing AAR and there was a fund raiser for Obama. I can't remember if it was CNN, MSNBC, or Fox because that's the channels I watched today.

16. "This website is one of hundreds of thousands of user-generated websites..."

*To folks wondering the Obama campaign was somehow affiliated with this event, please know that it was in no way sanctioned, authorized, or endorsed by the Obama for America campaign. This was a fundraiser put together by a San Francisco radio station (you can see their explanation of the event here www.green360.com). This website is one of hundreds of thousands of user-generated websites you can make on My.BarackObama.com.*

*edit link is listed wrong on the obama site, it's actually green960.com (as noted further down the page)

20. Another Hillbot lie put to rest.

[Joe the Revelator]

18. You've got to be kidding me....

[tishaLA]

19. Why keep pushing this lie?

It's just stupid.

[AllentownJake]
