I take back everything I said about Randi Rhodes (Clinton Supporters = “White Trash”)
I take it back: Randi Rhodes is not merely a foul-mouthed misogynist — she’s a nasty, stupid pig. No, wait, I take that back, too, as it is an insult to pigs everywhere.
(So sue me, Randi; if you can call Hillary a “
From ryeland at MyDD:
Randi Rhodes calls Hillary voters “white trash”
I hope Nova M Radio is happy with their new talk show host, the Left’s own Rush Limbaugh. Randi Rhodes is a disgrace and an embarrassment to Democrats, and I can’t imagine why any organization (political campaign or business) would want to be associated with her hate-filled rhetoric.
In the first five minutes of her show today, Randi let this one go:
“The Clinton campaign describes Hillary’s voters as older, white, and undereducated. Or as we called them in my neighborhood: white trash.”
Randi followed this, without a hint of irony or self-awareness, with a screed about how Hillary is an elitist (in part, because she loaned her campaign $5 million). Tell us more about elitism, Randi. How do “white trash” fit into your analysis?
I don’t know if Randi Rhodes is helping or hurting Barack Obama, but I do know that she’s hurting the Democratic Party with this kind of divisive, classist language. White trash? That’s how she chooses to describe the majority of Democrats who voted in this year’s primaries? I wouldn’t be surprised if Randi finds herself back on the unemployment line soon.
Randi Rhodes, you embarass me as a woman, and as a human being — both species to which, at this point, I sincerely doubt you belong.
Oh, and Randi? You may not be any whiter than I am, but you’re sure as hell older older than I am, and as far as education goes, I’ll go up against you on “Jeopardy!” any day of the week. All that Kool-Aid you’ve drunk has obviously shrunken your brain to the size of a peanut.
