Hey Mister! Have You Got a Dime?...Bad Girl Randi Suspended For Calling Hill a Ho

Oh Charlie, I dunno...It was San Francisco, it was stand-up of a sort...
At this time in the life of Air America Radio, don't you think that bringing a little edginess back to the network might actually help? Fer Christ's sake, its practically an infomercial channel after the Greens, and you're worried about a little dicey stand-up in SF?

You shoulda given her a pat on the back, (and give Marc Maron a morning show while you're at it! )Instead we are lucky to be treated to the fantastic vocal stylings of Sammy Seder, who I love, as you know, and who needs a daily show, it's true...and look at all those open slots you have just waiting for the liberal, funny voice!...But, give Randi a break, She has been there since the beginning and the least she should be able to expect from her network is not to be thrown under the bus for an edgy stand-up routine, on the clock or not.

Can we just sorta pretend that you have some intention of resurrecting AAR? Can't we just pretend for a little while that after 5 years of downward motion, we can hope for more than a further gutting of the place and some sort of, oh...investment in talent? I've had a hard year so far, and the democrats have to start to wrap their heads around something common. How 'bout trying that on for size? Help us! We're fighting for our lives out here!

I'm guessing that Randi is not long for this world...she is pretty over the edge. But, a little controversy is GOOD RADIO! As thrilled as I am to have Sam Seder on and some content that I can actually listen to, I really think that this should be a non-issue. They're only words,and she didn't, as far as I could tell, use it to mean what it might seem to mean; like, she is actually a streetwalking, Spitzer-fucker, whore! She is a politican...and they ARE whores!!
