So somebody attacked Randi Rhodes Sunday night
She was walking her dog in her sweats with no purse or money and somebody just attacked her with a baseball bat and knocked out several teeth. To me this sounds like it was planned and carried out to silence her/intimidate others.

1. She should have had a body guard
I don't know if she can really afford one...

2. Shit he'd have to be around her 24/7
You need Dick Cheney money to pull that off.

11. If Rush Limbaugh did what he did, but as a liberal, he'd have been killed ten years ago.
Funny how the conservative hate mongers never get assassinated, beaten up, or intimidated.

But the liberals - the preachers of love - get killed, harassed, and beaten up all the time.

That also says a lot about the moral difference between liberals and conservatives.



I wouldn't be surprised if Randi was beaten because of her ideology. Possibly it was random violence, but I would doubt it.
