Is Hillary Really a F*&^%&%g W(*&^(&e?
Randi Rhodes thinks so.

She really did say it a number of times.
I learned it from here.

So lets again talk about sexism and racism.

Randy's clearly going for shock value, and it seems you're part of the crowd reinforcing her behavior. I definitely don't support her behavior (in fact I denounce and reject it), but when she uses those words it's clear she's using them explicitly to get the kind of reaction she's getting from certain Clinton supporters. For a shock comedian, I'm sure it's quite true: no press is bad press.
If you want to punish her for this behavior, you have to go against your instincts and ignore her.

Ben I have listened to her since she came on the air and you know what? I know her shock stuff, this is her. She was speaking to the choir at the time so there was not "I am going to shock the Clinton supporters" intent here. It is who she is I am afraid. It is sad too because she is really undercutting her guy in a serious way. This type of bile will alienate a lot of her listeners (those still listening) who support Clinton and consequently hurt the dems hopes in November.

If people are going to judge Obama on the basis of what some whack said on the radio about him then our country is in more serious trouble than I thought. Good news though: she was suspended. Good, she deserves it for that crap.
