Like we announced earlier FBLA should be getting our comments enabled by early next week. But until that happens, one of our readers, former columnist at Hartford Courant, Amy Pagnozzi sent us this which we thought was worth posting:

I have no idea where to post comments or letters to editor so please forward mine: Randi Rhodes, 'Disappeared by Air America: No Business Sense, No Vision. While I understand that Randi Rhode's crass remarks -- made during a stand-up comedy act to benefit an AA affiliate -- were a short-term liability, long-term, the loss of her voice there is a loss to the Progressive Movement. As the Right Wing well knows but the Left never learns, it takes extreme voices at the end of the spectrum to to move the middle where you want it. The side that defines 'Centrist' is the side that wins. It's that simple. Charlie Kireker and Mark Green's graceless statement, leaving out the the setting of Randi's lapse, reducing her central role in AA's survival to 'past services,' underscores their lack of vision. Abusive? Randi? Hell, yeah, in terms of language. But let's not lose sight of the real abuses, and abusers, she railed against, and the Left's collaboration with them: Mark Green's long strange trip from Nader's Raider to flakking for the Pro-Foreclosure, Pro- Cluster Bomb candidate is just one tragic example. (see Hillary Clinton's Hawkish Record and Why Pretend That Hillary Clinton Is Progressive? Funny, aint it? Green entitled his latest book, in 2006, "Losing Our Democracy". Guess that's what they mean when they say the one who smelt it, dealt it. Love & Peace, Amy Pagnozzi
