Randi Rhodes Mugged by Too Many Bloody Marys?
Despite claims by fellow Air America propagandist Jon Elliot that Randi Rhodes was physically assaulted by conspirators of the "right wing hate machine," it turns out she wasn't assaulted by anyone, but rather just fell down in the street, evidently knocking out a few of her rather prominent teeth.
But what would cause Rodent to fall down like that? Here's a possible explanation, via Gawker:
Randi Rhodes was no more assaulted by a right-wing fanatic on Monday than Dick Cheney was. She, in fact, fell down and injured her teeth outside of a Midtown Irish bar at around 6 o'clock Sunday evening after downing about fourteen Ketel One Bloody Marys. She was abusive to the barstaff and generally gross, crass, loud, and pretentious. I genuinely hope she has a speedy recovery. I never would've disclosed this (I believe that anyone should feel free to hang out at Irish pubs at any time and not be concerned about someone publishing their behavior) if Air America hadn't grossly interpreted a drunken indiscretion and allowed it to be morphed into some bullish rhetoric on air. Whatever journalistic integrity the station may have ever had is now completely compromised. The manipulation of the public diminishes any cause, whether just or fabricated.
The way things have been going at Err Un-American, it may soon be common to find its anchors lying drunk on the sidewalk.
On a tip from Mike.

The vast rightwing conspiracy is responsible for this somehow. Perhaps they altered her genes to make her more susceptible to alcohol.
Yeah thats it.
- WTC Building 7 any one?
- Area 51 was a NeoCon special Ops.
- Mumia was framed by Roger Rabbit.

Besides, if the right-wing really wanted to hurt someone, they would invite the moonbat hunting with the VP.
