Newton Was a Fascist
Air America's Jon Elliott quickly succumbed to paranoia last night, claiming that his fellow Air America host Randi Rhodes would be out of work because of an attack that he claims was more than a mugging:
Elliott was extremely agitated when he reported on the incident. He opened his show by saying "it is with sadness that tonight I inform you that my Air America colleague Randi Rhodes was assaulted last night while walking her dog near her New York City home."
Pointing out that Rhodes was wearing a jogging suit and displayed no purse or jewelry, Elliott speculated that "this does not appear to me to be a standard grab the money and run mugging."
"Is this an attempt by the right wing hate machine to silence one of our own," he asked. "Are we threatening them. Are they afraid that we're winning. Are they trying to silence intimidate us."
The problem with this theory, other than Elliott's delusion of relevance, was the fact that Rhodes wasn't mugged, and wasn't assaulted.
She fell.
Meet gravity, ladies and gentlemen: the newest member of the Vast Right Wing Conspiracy.

I'm certain Shrimpy Bu$hitler or Darth Cheney is actually to blame for this. How do we know it wasn't Haliburton that built the sidewalk where she tripped?
And clearly, the sidewalk was split and cracked due to excessive weathering caused by global warming. All of this wouldn't have happened if Dumbya's Supreme Court stooges hadn't stolen the election from Gore.

Why in the world would Elliot believe the Right wants Rhodes silenced? Most on the Right love Randi Rhodes! The more she talks the better, it only reinforces how unglued many on the Left have become. Elliot's reaction to the supposed mugging only amplifies that point. More please.

Mindnumbrobot, it was very wrong of you to reveal that. You are hereby drummed out of the VRWC for treason.
The rest of you, carry on with getting the leftoids spinning. Don't stop until they're at 15,000 RPM and screaming.

It is my understanding is that the sidewalks in NYC are part of the VRWC.

Everyone knows that gravity in NYC is contracted out to Blackwater. Duh.

Elliott was extremely agitated when he reported on the incident.
Since he was reporting on his radio show, is there an explanation for how anybody found out about it?

Makes perfect sense.
Success in Iraq = defeat.
Taking more money from hard working Americans = the road to prosperity.
Insulting one of our allies (Turkey) = good diplomacy.
Why not fall = mugging?

It's plausible - if she was on network that had noticable ratings and she was someone of consequence.
(I never heard of her before today.)

Gravity can not melt steel. Did you see the way Rhodes fell down? It was straight down, like it was a planned demolition. Notice how none of the other pedestrians were injured? That just does not happen when a person falls of their own volition.

This story points to a number of problems that the liberals have. First, as a news person or someone associated with providing information, this guy shows that they can't even get the story of an accident straight. Second, this is clearly showing delusions of grandeur in that anyone would plan to hurt one of them. Also, it implies projection, indicating that they would consider doing harm to a conservative in a similar manner. Finally, they just don't understand Bush, I doubt he could arrange for a simple mugging.

Ya know what the saddest part of this whole thing is? The lefties are still portraying this as an attack by some conservative, as pointed out by The Weekly Standard:
The Daily Kos diarists haven't allowed the truth behind Rhodes' accident to mitigate their anger. Kos diarist WinSmith, in a remarkably ignorant and intellectually incoherent essay even by Daily Kos standards, defended the progressive rush to judgment:
Who assassinated John Kennedy (D), Robert Kennedy (D) and Martin Luther King? Was it "liberals"? I think not When talk show personalities paint one side of the aisle as a "Fifth Column," as threatening to destroy the country from within, as threatening the very fabric of America, don't be surprised when unhinged listeners take it upon themselves to "do something" about it. So if we jump the gun and assume another unhinged "patriot" fired up by Sean Hannity's hate speech decided to "do something," it's a god damned reasonable assumption.
And they claim to be "reality-based."
