I was afraid this was going to happen but there is a silver lining.

I was never a big Randi Rhodes fan.  However, I supported her show by listening on occasion.  But Kossacks, do we really want to support the vile rantings of anyone against one of our own? Or not one of our own?  I do not approve and certainly would never encourage any of the crap that Randi Rhodes spoke about HRC or Ferraro.  This is never, ever my idea of a progressive movement.  We must be inclusive, listeners, welcoming, showing positivity, creating a movement by leading by example.  The comments are wrong, but they are amplified by those in our community that support these comments in blogs and it creates more harm and divides us.
I would like to think we are spirited debaters and not ugly haters.
