Intense Randi Rhodes Radio Moment.
Listening to yesterday's podcast -- a South Carolina veteran, 51, talked about unemployment. He broke down in tears. Randi was compassionate and patient, talking to him until he regained his composure. She asked for any listener who could offer employment to call in. It was gripping to hear.

I don't care what dark opinions anyone has about this woman. She's an important and powerful force for good. She has an unerring moral compass, a hyper-quick mind, and an addiction to hard fact.

Moments like the one with 'Mike' reveal that she has an emotional intellect as well. I found myself holding my breath. Very intense radio. Wow.

2. I was listening in my car when he began but had to get out and get gas. Later,
a caller and Randi were discussing it so I got the gist of it, and I heard Randi send out a plea to contact her if anyone could give him a job. :cry:

She's one of the sharpest on the radio. She knows her stuff and explains it well. I'm a fan.

3. he had me sobbing too
that was so very raw, I visioned a broken man.

so many in that condition today, sigh.

Randi gets really worked up and says just what she thinks. I love her for that.

6. she's human... she does care about others

she has her moments, but I do think she is a decent person.

Hey greedy... this is what suffering is really like. Get it???? SO when you bitch about the left and while you bitch about paying taxes, your problems are pathetically smaller than what most people.
