OMG...Only Rita Cosby could link Natalee Holloway to Ports issue!
Edited on Mon Feb-27-06 09:47 PM by KzooDem
The same technology to monitor our ports is apparently being used to try to locate Natalee Holloway. That doesn't bode well for our ports, now, does it?!

And bringing Robin "Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous" Leach in to do an investigative "report" on the death of Princess Diana was priceless. Robin's opinion: "Well, Rita, if the CIA can monitor Osama Bin Laden's cell phone conversations, you can bet they were listening to Princess Diana's cell phone conversations as well."

OMG...how did this woman who sounds like Rocky The Squirrel ever get as far as she did in broadcasting. OY VEY!

2. Rocky had a high-pitched voice
Rita sounds like Bullwinkle.

it's old news, WE DO NOT CARE.

as far as rita's voice is concerned it's an actual physical syndrome (i forgot what it's called but RFK Jr. has it as well).

6. Spasmodic dysphonia....
I didn't know Rita has that condition. I'll stop making fun of her voice, then. But she's STILL a lame-assed, know-nothing talking head.

7. I didn't know that about her voice either.
Actually, it makes me have a bit more appreciation for her position. (As it always does when I find someone succeeding in a chosen path despite health or other obstacles.)

I haven't watched Rita since the night they did a lead in to her show about puppies being a terror threat.

WTF?

9. Totally serious... unfortunately.
It was shortly after the DEA had intercepted some liquid heroin. It had been sewn into the stomachs of puppies so it could be brought into the US.

I didn't watch the Rita show to see how this was tied to terrorism.

10. Robert Kennedy Jr. has that condition. I was surprised when I heard him on
AAR and he sounded like a very old man.

I wasn't aware that Cosby has that. Have you seen a source for that info? Just curious. I haven't seen her show in ages. Although I admit I was somewhat bizarrely fascinated to see her interviewing folks like Arafat and Mike Tyson when she was on Faux. A variation on the Baba WaWa approach.

At any rate, her voice doesn't bother me. She does tabloid infotainment "news" and her recent comment about Dems courting African Americans, the "hoodlum vote" as she put it, was beyond the pale. Far more reasons to criticize her than her voice.

13. actually i don't know if she has that syndrome
i was trying to give her the benefit of the doubt....her voice has become worse over the past few years.

i'm sorry, i just assumed it was the case. why in heaven's name would they keep hiring her unless they're afraid of a lawsuit.

11. She DOESN'T have a God-given right to be ON TV, however.
She's a PITA.

14. We can't find Holloway. We can't find Bin Laden. Could it be?
OMG: Osama kidnapped her to be his 5th wife! Breaking news on Fox, wait and see!
