A school assignment took me to the usually untouched AM airwaves on my car radio as I was driving home earlier. Since the antenna is broken on my car, I had some trouble finding a station that got a clear signal, but I stumbled across 1190 AM and The Randi Rhodes Show.
I can completely respect views that are different than mine and I am totally fine with strongly opinionated arguments from the other side of the coin. But Randi Rhodes is way too over the top for me. Her critique of John McCain didn’t bother me, her misunderstanding of a veteran’s point of view was even bearable, but when she accused all Republicans of being illiterate, I almost jumped through my speakers to punch her in the face.
I think the quote was something along the lines of “People that support Republicans, people that are affiliated with the Republican party… you can’t even have a conversation with them. They don’t read. They don’t know what they’re talking about, they’re not educated, they have these opinions but they don’t know what’s going on.”
I can recall only a few other times in my life when I was so offended. Really, Randi Rhodes? I’m not educated? I don’t read? I don’t know what’s going on in the election? Thanks. I must have got into grad school on a pure fluke. This isn’t the damn West Wing and you’re not comparing Jed Bartlet to Rob Ritchie, all right? So get off your intellectual high horse, jackass.
Let me say a big F-U, Randi Rhodes. You want to generalize? Fine, you’re the one with the mic.. You want to stereotype? Okay. It’s your show, so you’re entitled. But pull your head out of your own ass long enough to recognize that it’s POSSIBLE that someone who’s not on your way-liberal-left-wing-whacko-springboard-of-fun might actually have… a college degree. I mean, there’s just the smallest chance that there are a couple Republicans out there who are informed on the issues. I would LOVE to debate you on the tax plans.
And your radio show was boring. I was actually relieved when the signal started fading out.
I hope I never have to listen to this dumb broad again.
Randi Rhodes is a big bag of douche.
