Will Right-Wing Radio Call For Randi Rhodes' Arrest?
On her show, Thursday or Friday (I can't remember which), she called for soldiers ordered to report to Iraq to just not go, or tell their commanders that they are gay, or, if they are women, to get pregnant.

It would be so easy for RW radio to accuse her of sedition or aiding and abetting the enemy or whatever.

And I would not put it past John Asscrack to go after her.

I love Randi.

2. quick! She should buy tens of thousands of illegal
prescription pain killers. That would make her immune from any kind of arrest or prosecution.

5. I love Randi, too!
Thing is, all she does is state the obvious, straight from the hip. Randi pisses off the RW because she doesn't have to spin the truth like Rush and O'Reilly do in order to keep their ratings up. She says what every other sane person is thinking, and they can't do a damn thing about it.

6. Under the Patriot Act they could incarcerate her
without filing any charges, for up to one year. Great country we live in.

9. She could keep a line open for emergency use 24/7, and broadcast...
...the raid and kidnapping of her person.

11. the ramifications of this are really scary
Kerry is actually a real moderate, but hopefully his Vietnam war protest background would mean that he would act to end this Patriot Act crap...

8. I HATE even alluding to the fact that...
someone would have to be a sacrificial lamb...but I think THAT would sure get mucho attention!
I had always worried that shit like that would happen to Mike Malloy! Those two are definitely our two strongest voices! :headbang:
