3. Why does every Repuke have to wear the trademark Bush smirk
on their face when they are on a show with a Dem/Liberal? Is it because they really don't have anything of substance to say, so the facial and verbal put-downs are all they have?

7. I can't watch it.
Boortz is a pig-head fuggin' asshole who's whole schtick right now is to rake Randi over the coals. I know Randi will do fine, but I find myself wanting to scream at the damned TV.

8. Larry is not giving her the edge.
He tells her to shut up or "let Neal talk" but she's not getting the same courtesy.

Yet another round of "let's team up on the Liberal".

32. Boortz: Muhammad a "phony rag-picker"
From Media Matters:

Boortz also declared Islam a religion of "violent, bloodthirsty cretins" and called Prophet Muhammad a "phony rag-picker"

19. And Randi put the cherry on top by invoking Osama bin Whatzisface again
She asked why Bush "cut and run" from Afghanistan instead of catching OBL.

He wasn't letting her speak at all.

26. Larry just doesn't understand that Liberals have thoughts that can't..
be summed up in a short soundbite. It's pointless to debate RW hate radio hosts.

37. Randi got plenty of her opinions in, but not to be taking
Larry King's side, there have been quite a few times when I have seen interviews with Randy that I felt like telling her to shut up because she does tend to interrupt and the other side was not been able to get in a word edgewise.

47. I agree.
She makes me nervous when she does that and it just makes it even harder to listen to what she has to say. She has good points and could get them across to the viewer if she would take her turn, rather than get caught up in a shouting match.

27. Larry King was a total ass
He acted like he was Randi's daddy - shut up and learn to listen - shithead.

Randi was great, and I'm glad that she held her tongue and responded intelligently and politely.

Once again, King was a total ass.

38. She makes me cringe every time she's on television.
You are blind in your thinking if she positively influences anybody that still could be swayed one way or the other.

She doesn't end one sentence before she starts another one and they successfully pointed that out to anybody who didn't see it.

She could do short bullseye head shots and steamroll republicans under the table. But she doesn't have the vaguest clue how. Turns more people off than anybody.

41. I wish there was a way for CNN to do a scientifically accurate
poll right now of viewers who saw it and ask their opinion of what I said, and I would show it to you big time. There isn't a doubt in my mind.

This is another classic example almost identical to McKinney. The voters handed her her ass last night. They would Randi too, only fortunately she's not running for anything.

42. So how do you do it? How do you successfully go up against these guys?
If you're polite, they just talk over the top of you. If you talk over the top of them, they point out that you're being a long winded microphone hog. These GOP jackasses are always going to make the liberal out to be the reactionary shrew regardless of whether the liberal is composed or not. The liberals try to make their points, but matters are more complicated than bullseye talking points... and it doesn't help that Liberals are ALWAYS pitted against 2 conservatives.

So how should she have done it?

46. As I said.
Pick your spots and land a hay maker. Short, stunning and laser focused.

Like she did with the kid on King the last time. "Why aren't you in Iraq?" It left him stumbling for an answer. It was the sound bite that was remembered. Unfortunately the rest of that appearance was a repeat of what you saw tonight. Non stop rambling.

If she, or anybody, representing us would do that, the viewers would be remembering the head shot that left the republican stumbling. Not how much they hated the tirade.

That's how you do it.

48. Seems like to me she did that at the end.
Nobody can answer why Bush cut and run and left Osama in Afgahnastan. Boortz certainly couldn't.

50. Thankfully it ended on that note.
The rest was a disaster. She made a hundred points, nobody's going to remember a one. Was just like stuffing clothes into a suitcase and sitting on it to shut it.

Instead of folding and packing it.

52. That's your opinion...
personaly, I feel all these interview shows set liberals up to fail. At least she made some points in her slim alotted time frame as opposed to just sitting there grinning a capped tooth grin and taking it up the tailpipe every Sunday like Joe Biden does.

44. My husband was impressed and he doesn't know who she is
He looked up from his book to hear what she was saying without me prompting him in any way. When she finished he turned to me and said "wow, she kicked his ass" and then went back to his book.

45. That's the key, when she talks she actually makes a point
The naysayers here just aren't listening to what she's saying. Probably because they're used to hearing nothing but RW crap on TV.

49. Is your husband a Democrat?
Think about what I'm saying. It doesn't matter how much she impresses Democrats. Their votes, at least hopefully, are already in the bag.

A poll would show you what I said. TAKE IT TO THE BANK.
