War between Randi Rhodes and Ed Shultz was just declared.

[kaitykaity]

Shultz just called her "Randi Slut" on the air.

OMFG.

[russian33]

1. on what show?

[kaitykaity]

4. The Ed Shultz Show

Now he's riffing on Franken's appearance on Letterman
last night, and he's tearing apart AAR.

[Walt Starr]

7. Fuck Ed Schultz

Seriously, if the guy can't work within the framework, he's unnecessary.

[Ducks In A Row]

16. he's a pretend liberal and I've never trusted him

Now is the time to call the Portland station and ask for Ed to be tape delayed. But Randi on live damnnit.

[Zinfandel]

58. Who in the fuck is Ed Schultz, fuck him, he's a nobody! Rhodes is GREAT!

And we got the Great Mike Malloy back...So fuck Ed Schultz!

[Myrina]

62. oh please

Get melodramatic much ? :freak:

[Ducks In A Row]

67. Ed brings it out in people <eom>

[sadiesworld]

Great.

:eyes:

[WLKjr]

2. DAMMIT PEOPLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

we finally get a liberal talk radio and we can't coexist and try to work with each other to get the message out. I call bullshit!

[Ducks In A Row]

25. Don't worry

Ed's not really a liberal. He's just showing his true colors today.

[Demonaut]

97. I didnt care for his attack on Franken today, bitched that

Franken did not mention him on Letterman. Whined about it for over ten minutes

[Walt Starr]

3. Damn, we don't need liberal media prima donas going at it

on the air waves.

Fuck Ed Schultz.

[buycitgo]

11. he's a big fat, ex-republican SLOB!

I can't stand to hear his voice on sirius left, or whatever that largely lame channel they have is called

they have a bunch of jerks on there, except for Thom Hartmann, and one other guy, including an HOUR of Wall Street Journal crap in the morning!

oh, including alan colmover

[LTR]

46. Alex Bennett is pretty decent on Sirius Left

Though his show drifts away from politics quite often.

He may occasionally say something negative about Kerry, but he gets pretty hostile on Bush and Nader.

More entertaining when he takes on RWers.

[bullimiami]

12. kick his used to be republican

rush clone sounding ass to the curb and put randi on real time in miami. thats what i say.

[jdj]

66. G. Gordon Liddy and O'Reilly hate each other.

Maybe it's a Biggie/Tupac thing, just tryin' to make some more money.

All this whoever it is Ed Schultz person is gonna accomplish is to run traffic to Randi's show, and once they hear her they'll never go back. She'll probably start calling herself this as a joke, and work it to her advantage. I love the ribald way she flirts with callers. She's a big girl, she can handle little Ed.

[Tom Kitten]

5. Ed's going off on Al Franken now...

Mad because he claimed to be number one in Portland...and made no mention of Ed...

[Connie_Corleone]

9. If Ed was on AAR, maybe Al would've mentioned him...

:silly:

[Ducks In A Row]

22. Ed's not AAR, he's a hangnail we suffer from on KPOJ

He's pissed because his being on that station doesn't help KPOJ.

[Connie_Corleone]

6. And to think I was going to listen to his show today...

Thank god I turned on Randi instead.

I'll be damned if I'm going to sit and listen to someone calling a woman a slut.

[R3dD0g]

8. Who the f is Ed Shultz?

Never heard of him. Where's he based.

[kaitykaity]

13. Fargo, North Dakota of all places.

He's syndicated on the Jones Radio Network to about 40
markets, and he has Randi's time slot on KPOJ in
Portland, OR.

[hlthe2b]

10. I don't care how good (or not) Schultz is: I hope this DOES HIM IN!

We don't need this kind of green eyed jealousy act among our progressive commentators. BS. RIP, Schultz (figuratively, of course). Your airwaves should be dead soon.

[Walt Starr]

14. Maybe he's pissed because he's not on AAR

Fuck him. We don;t need him.

[never cry wolf]

26. He is,

Randi talked about it one day, when they were putting AAR together she said they were all interviewed and Schultz walked into the place liked he owned it and it was a done deal. Randi got the slot he coveted.

Great choice, if you ask me!

[Cleita]

15. He would be tombstoned at DU for name calling.

eom

[Az_lefty]

17. He's talking about this now....

he's saying he's never said anything negative about AA, doesn't know them, doesn't talk to them. Now calling Randi a slut again. Say's she's been bad mouthing him. Something about Franken's comment last night about being #1 in political talk in Portland.

[nickinSTL]

20. has Randi badmouthed him?

I seem to remember that when she first went on, she mentioned him, because he'd been rude to her at some point.

That's all...but then, I only hear about the 1st hour and a half of her show, since I listen streaming at work, and leave 1 1/2 hours after her show starts. And AAR hasn't hit St. Louis yet. (and I can't afford satellite radio - unless it's a lot cheaper than I think)

[Az_lefty]

21. I remember her mentioning Shultz once also, but not the context.

[nickinSTL]

28. context

The context I mentioned above is only from a vague recollection of one of Randi's earliest shows on AAR. I may have it wrong.

[erpowers]

104. Shultz was Rude to Her

She recounted the events of one day when she was standing outside the AAR building and she said hi to Shultz, but he did not reply even though she was the only one out their.

[proud patriot]

102. Randi called him a republican back when AAR first started

She said he was only a "liberal" to ride the wave
of Liberal radio at it's inception . It was months
ago though .

I tend to agree with Randi especially with his
use of words today . Has anyone told Randi ?

I listened to Ed a couple of times before AAR
first aired Ed wasn't my cup of tea..

[Arugula Latte]

18. I'm really beginning to dislike Ed Schultz.

He's got an ego the size of North Dakota.

Too bad; I tried to give him a chance.

[Az_lefty]

19. I gave him a chance too

he's starting to sound like rush.

[depakid]

75. that's the point

who would you rather have people listen to- Schultz ot Limbaugh?

[dflprincess]

118. I think Ed probably appeals to a group that may not listen to

Al or Randi. As long as he keeps bashing Bush, that's a good thing.

[gasperc]

50. he's been good, but this is unnecessary

why is he doing this??? Damn it!!!

[kaitykaity]

52. Ego, pure and simple ego.

Exasperating.

[in_cog_ni_to]

23. I'm female and

I feel like my gender is in line of a Full Frontal Attack! I'm sick of this crap. What is it with these MEN? Damn. I cannot believe he said that. Has he gone to the dark side now? Sheesh. This is unbelievable in 2004. :grr:

Well, off to write another sweeeeeet email to Schultz. :mad:

[Myrina]

64. I'm female and

I don't like her. She's a loudmouth. She's overbearing, just like the Fundie talk show hosts, and really obnoxious to listen to.

[LisaM]

24. It's KPOJ - the STATION - that's number one, right?

This actually reminds me of Randi complaining because she never gets mentioned, and Al Franken does. Well, he's the famous one. I think Ed Schultz has good ratings -- but he has to build up his name recognition. Like it or not, Al Franken has been around for a long time making a name for himself.

Also, what Ed may not realize, if you listen to KPOJ, it is really easy to infer that he's part of Air America. Their website shows Air America, their news people are Air America - he's not, but he's surrounded by a bunch of Air American people and unless you listen to him every day you might not know he's syndicated differently. He should be talking to KPOJ about this, not reaming liberal hosts and listeners!

[ronnykmarshall]

32. I listen to KPOJ and then WJNO

I wish that damn link to WLIB would work. I can't get real player to work at on my pc at work so I have to jump around.

I've never listened to Ed Schultz before, now I know why.

[3trievers]

57. working for me

wlib at 4:pm

[ronnykmarshall]

68. Hmmmmm?

Lemme try again.

[ibegurpard]

27. Hope she doesn't take the bait.

Best way to handle this slob is ignore him.

[LisaM]

29. Actually, he sounds drunk or something right now!

That can't be right, but he sounds weird and angry.

[Walt Starr]

31. Maybe he's being pulled by KPOJ

and Randi will replace him since she's in that timeslot on all of the other AAR stations.

:shrug:

[Tweed]

30. Ed was wrong to call Randi that. She is obviously a bitch, not a slut

For shame Ed, get it right.

[LittleApple81]

36. I LOVE Randi.... She is GOOD AT WHAT SHE IS SUPPOSED TO BE GOOD.

Radio... she is a RADIO PERSON: loud, obnoxious, in your face, with passion... No slut here but bitchyyyyyyyyy, and I love it! The bitchier the better for radio. Doesn't take any crap. I listened to Ed ONE time when Randi was on repeats.... mmmmmmm not impressed.

[kaitykaity]

37. Oh, go pound sand.

lol.

[in_cog_ni_to]

41. A bitch?

How dare you! Rhandi Rhodes is an outspoken, strong DEMOCRATIC woman who OBVIOUSLY threatens men. Get over it. We need her voice, whether you like it or not.

[Tweed]

51. I'm just saying it like it is.

Randi is a bitch just like the way that Hannity & O'Rielly are man bitches. They have the same agressive annoying style.

[Tosca]

55. All the makings of a bitch!!

"How dare you! Rhandi Rhodes is an outspoken, strong DEMOCRATIC woman who OBVIOUSLY threatens men."

Randi rocks. And she'll address the Ed Shitz slur. She won't be able to resist!

Fuck you, Shitz, you AAR wannabee.

[MattNC]

89. an AAR wannabe?

He's on twice as many stations as AAR with far less publicity. What makes him a wannabe?

[John_H]

100. Why is it that when a man points out that rhodes is annoying, he's

a mysogonist? That's not only ridiculous, it's sexist. It sounds like you can't make a distinction between strong and obnoxious. The strong women I know and love are tough as nails--and like most strong people, don't need to be blow hards to prove it.

[LouKYDem]

33. Never listened to Ed Schultz and...

now it looks like I never will. Is that all he can do? Name call? I love Randi Rhodes, and personally, I think she is the best out of ALL of the hosts out there.

[obnoxiousdrunk]

34. That's the

difference between right wing talk show hosts and liberal ones.
They stick together at least on air and repeat the same BS over and over again.

[kaitykaity]

35. Here's my email exchange with him.

You started it with the use of the word "slut". I was
using a rhetorical device to show you how nasty the word
is to women out here.

I guess I got my point across, huh?

Oh, and ever think that Al Franken's such a big star that
he has no idea AAR programming is interrupted on KPOJ by
a hold0ver like you?

The are over 80% of the programming on KPOJ, you stupid fuck. That
gives them every right to claim credit for the ratings.

You call another woman a SLUT and I am through with you, you sexist

[in_cog_ni_to]

39. Sweeeeeet!

I just emailed the show. I bet he ends up apologizing. He better!

Everyone, email him!

[Az_lefty]

43. just emailed him, he better respond to this.

[Az_lefty]

40. Nice job, let him have it!

[Tosca]

56. Well done, kaitykaity

Love how their response is always to say the WOMAN is using foul language. So predictable. So tired.

Just another double standard.

[LisaM]

38. I listen to KPOJ because I can listen to both Ed and Randi

they're very different, but so is American full of different types - Ed pulls in fishermen, truck drivers, golfers - a different kind of audience, and I really like hearing his callers. I like Randi too - a LOT - but face it, they're going head to head in a limited market so it's only natural they'd have these turf wars.

[Catt03]

42. Today must be Abuse Women Day

Let's see...

Bob Dole says there is not a muzzle big enough to fit Teresa Heinz Kerry.

And some other jerk calls Randi Rhodes a slut.

[Az_lefty]

44. Dole said that?

He better watch it, Teresa will be going after him next.

Bring it on, Bob.

[derby378]

45. Maybe Dole has an S&M fantasy of Teresa?

Would be fitting - Teresa could body-slam Dole in a steel cage match without breaking a sweat.

[LittleApple81]

48. I have noticed that a lot of men are FANTASIZING ABOUT TERESA...

She has this dreamy, sexy, sultry quality to her. Somebody noticed her zippered suit at the convention speech.... Boy men are piggies...

And Matthews...coffeeee....coffeeeee....coffeeeeeeeeeee....coffeeeeeeeee

[derby378]

49. Well, Teresa IS rather fetching (n/t)

[Tosca]

60. Pretty good for being 65 years old

Eh?

[Swamp Rat]

84. Yes, we are little piggies! HAHA!

and I LOVE Teresa. I want to hear her say sweet somethings em Português. "Ai amor!, Estou gostando de você amor..." (sigh)

[ronnykmarshall]

47. No shit!

What century IS this?

[ParanoidPat]

94. There's not a Viagra prescription big enough.....

.....to make Bob Dole half as big a man as Teresa H. K. is! :evilgrin:

[schultzee]

53. If this is true, he will get a nasty email from me. We are on the same

team, Mr. Ed Schultz.

[kaitykaity]

54. Oh, it's true. Believe me.

If you send him one, ask him if he's so mad because
his poor widdle ego is bruised because Al didn't
acknowledge him.

[flaminbats]

59. Does big Ed have an exit strategy?

just kidding...I really meant big Randi or little Al or...umm never mind! :hippie:

[kaitykaity]

61. Yeah, Randi wants her time slot here.

I know that for a fact.

I hope she gets her wish.

:evilgrin:

[ibegurpard]

63. Well, that explains a lot

He's totally shooting himself in the foot with this reaction. He should suck it up and look for ways to jump on the bandwagon.

[americanstranger]

101. She's gonna get it.

The only reason Schultz is on KPOJ is he's under contract, and was contracted before AAR showed up.

They're letting his contract run out, and Randi will get the vacant spot.

I was saying 2 years ago that Schultz was a prick. He just proved it.

-as

[kaitykaity]

107. I think so, too.

I just wonder how long Shultz' contract is for,
and how much longer we'll have to tolerate him.

I just know I'm tired of having to wait for her
show in the afternoons on KPOJ.

(I'm usually using my computer audio player for
work and can't stream her.)

[SiouxJ]

65. Ed can't make a point to save his life

he wishes he could get the facts out like Randi but he just bumbles. He has almost as much trouble with the English language as Shrub. He's pretty much a Repuke too; only barely a Dem. The only thing good about him is he's out there working for Kerry. Otherwise I'd wish he'd just go away. It pisses me off to no end that XM switches to him instead of airing Randi in the afternoon.

[kaitykaity]

69. Caller tried to nail him about his comment about Randi

and he wouldn't even address it.

"I don't like her and she doesn't like me," and he
cut the guy off.

:grr:

[hlthe2b]

70. Good to hear it was a guy trying to defend Randi....

I have mixed feelings about her myself, but as a female who craves more strong women in positions of power, authority, celebrity, Randi has my backing. Yes, she can be very abrasive and sometimes downright rude. But, which male pundit is not? Look at how lauded Tweety Bird is for beeing 1000x more rude and abrasive.

I've about had it with the media demonizing strong women (aka CNN and Theresa Kerry)--which makes it all more important to me to hear from men who feel similarly! They need to speak up with the same disgust as women to what is happening.

[Doctor_J]

71. focus, people

let's keep our eye on the smirk

[Isome]

72. There's something wrong with Randi too...

I don't trust her. She epitomizes the warning: just beneath the surface some liberals and conservatives are all the same.

She went on ad nauseum about being a "black woman" last week (and during reruns this past weekend), and I was so insulted I wanted to yank the radio cord out of the wall! Besides, I'm sick of her arguing with callers who are trying to agree with her. She thinks her perspective is the only one that is right or that matters.

Forget Randi... she and Ed should verbally bludgeon each other right off the airwaves.

[kaitykaity]

74. Nothing about Randi makes it okay for Shultz to call her a slut.

His use of such a sexist term makes me doubt everything
else about him re: his "progressive" credentials.

[Isome]

77. Two peas in a pod from where I sit...

I don't care if they rip each other to shreds. Her pathetic humor was thinly-disguised racism (of the oh' so paternalistic liberal type) and his mean-spirited rant was sexist. They're made for each other.

[kaitykaity]

80. Well, go listen to Rush and Hannity then.

"The enemy of the good is the search for the perfect," or
something to that effect.

Geez, some people are never satisfied.

[Isome]

121. Some people are never satisfied?

You're right... some people are never satisfied with disparaging remarks aimed at their ethnicity from self-proclaimed enlightened individuals.

Some of us are just riding this donkey as far as it will take us, not forever.

[depakid]

73. Randi HAS badmouthed Ed Schultz

A couple of weeks ago, she accused him of several things, including being "a wannabe liberal." She made it pretty clear that she didn't like the guy.

I have some issues with Ed- but what you need to understand is that he's reaching out for Rush's listeners- and he does a damn good job of talking to that audience. He's also syndicated on a lot more stations than Air America... especially in rural locations.

His show may or may not be appropriate for Air America- I think it is, although I'd like to see both he AND Air America taking up radio bandwidth all over the country

[kaitykaity]

76. She tried to introduce herself to him at a radio gathering

and he blew her off. That's what started it.

Still, Shultz was mad at Franken and he lashed
out at her with an insult that gives him away. Too
bad.

[depakid]

83. Why doesn't that surprise me....

I hope they resolve their little spat, although they seem like oil and water- same with Al Franken.

I like the fact that "Big Eddie" goes head to head with Lars Larsen. He's a much better match for that timeslot than Randi, I think.

The Randi Rhodes suits the commuter hour better, at least here in Portland.

[slutticus]

82. But do we really want Rush's listeners?

:shrug:

[depakid]

88. Of course we do!

How else are these people going to break out of their delusions?

Ed Schults is like a deprogrammer- he relates to that crowd on a certain visceral level... and people are tired of Rush... his shtick (and his lame takes) have gotten old.

[uconnyc]

78. I love Randi!

F- Schultz! Leave my girl alone.

[librechik]

79. misogynistic duplicitous douchebag

what the * is the point of slandering a colleague on the air?

[sangh0]

81. In Hollywood, they have stars date and then breakup

in order to get publicity. Hmmmmm

[kaitykaity]

85. Yeah. Hmmmm.

Maybe we can get something good out of this after all.

[depakid]

90. My thoughts exactly

A little controversy stirrs up interest-

Look how fast this thread expanded!

[kaitykaity]

92. Hee hee.

:evilgrin:

[supernova]

86. Ed's on WCHL after Al here in Chapel Hill

i don't like listening to Ed. He sounds way too hysterical, espcially after Al's more cerebral approach. I turn it off then.

[Tim4319]

87. Sounds like someone's a little jealous!

He must of been turn down by AAR. I guest he couldn't cut the mustard.

[linazelle]

91. XM Radio, 8.5% Clear Channel ownership, runs all AAR except Randi--

instead, they run Schultz. I took back my XM Radio and got Sirius when I found that out and, after hearing Schultz interview and befriend RW pundits. Schultz is the radio equivalent of Zell Miller.

[bbernardini]

95. NOT 8.5%. Less than 2%.

[linazelle]

110. The last time I checked XM vs. Sirius on Google it was 8.5%--last week

[Swamp Rat]

93. Well, this is not good for us any way you slice it.

I am disappointed that these DJs can't get past their egos to keep their eye on the prize - defeating Bush. I like both Randi and Ed but at times they are too abrasive and rude to callers that agree with them, but I think it is REALLY BAD for our side to be fighting each other like this.

I don't want to start any rumors, but does Ed sounds kind of drunk right now? He is really slurring his speech, more than usual.

[rocktivity]

96. I'll bet she's a slut with better ratings!

:headbang:
rocknation

[LuCifer]

98. BOYCOTT ED!

If you live in Portland or Miami, listen to Randi via http://www.AirAmericaRadio.com SCREW ED! He sucks. He is so half-assed and booooooooooooooooring, coma inducing. Not interested! Move your fat ass over and let a REAL radio pro and a REAL liberal kick some butt!

Lu Cifer, and sod you Crap Channel for your bullcrap efforts to hinder Howard Stern's return to Miami on 560 WQAM come August 16th, EAT ONE!

[John_H]

99. They both are counterproductive, IMHO

Schultz a transparent opportunist would become a "righty" in a heartbeat if it helped him down the road, and while Randi has grown on me personally, the twenty or so times I've listened to her with non-hardcore Dems present the responses have ranged from "Jesus, who the fuck is that? Turn it off." to "do you guys expect her to get you votes?"

I'm sure they "don't get Randi's brand of humor," but I'm not interested in the Career of Randi Rhodes. I'm interested in the career of John Kerry.

[Catt03]

103. Not a radio person

except NPR.

I wouldn't listen to either. Call me elitist but that yelling, name calling, cusing every other minute turns me off. Ugh

So I agree with you. I want to elect John Kerry...Randi can take care of herself.

[swag]

105. In the Immortal Words of Casey Kasem,

"Who Gives a Shit?"

[latebloomer]

106. Why do they have to air all their dirty laundry?

I don't know Schulz but I have heard Randi bitching about being dissed by various people numerous times. It's very unattractive.

I mostly avoid her show now-- she is an obnoxious, egomaniacal blowhard.

[NervousRex]

108. Schultz is a jailhouse punk!

His show is garbage... I couldn't stand the stink of just 10 minutes of his toilet shit radio program. Apparently, he inserted his finger in his ass, withdrew it and stuck it in the wind...saw which direction it was blowing....so, he pretends to be a liberal, and lets himself be beaten-up by mouth-breathing knuckle-draggers all in the name of "fairness"....just gives these assholes a forum...fuck him!

[OnionPatch]

109. Schtick...it's all schtick

Come on you guys, a lot of this rivalry stuff is just soap opera crap to keep people's attention. I've heard some radio people talk about it. In real life they could love each other for all we know. As for Ed, I don't believe he's a right-winger. I've listened to him plenty of times and he sounds ok to me. I think he appeals to a certain audience and is able to reach the down-home-type of Dems. He converted my brother-in-law! I have to stick up for him if only for that reason! I like Randi but am often bored with the ego stuff and I don't like the way she's rude to people but it's radio! For some reason, this is the stuff that attracts listeners. Or certain types of listeners. And I'm willing to bet it's the type of listeners that often vote on the wrong side. Besides, it sure didn't hurt Rush to be an asshole, did it?

[NervousRex]

111. Bull...

Shultz takes calls from idiots and says shit like..."well you have a point". He is never armed with any facts...and if he is he rolls over...face it, Shultz is a stooge...a set-up.

[kaitykaity]

112. No, the bad blood between Rhodes and Shultz is real.

He dissed her a while back, and now she wants his
hide, and he knows it.

[americanstranger]

113. AND she wants the slot up against Lars.

More than she dislikes Scultz, she wants to hang Larsen's pelt in her den.

I remember when Stern used to do the same thing - he went on afternoons at K-Rock (after being dumped from W-NNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN-BC) so he could hammer Scott Muni from WNEW. One ratings book and it was over - Stern owned that time slot. then he moved to mornings so he could destroy Imus. Same thing happened.

Randi wants that afternoon slot so she can destroy Lars.

-as

[kaitykaity]

114. Yeah, you're right. She's had a jones on for "Pistol Boy" ever since

they did that "NOW with Bill Moyers" segment together.

Her first show on AAR she declared war on Lars, and was
sorely pissed when she found out she was on tape delay.

[depakid]

115. I have news

I live in Portland and I know the kind of people who listen to (and have been listening to) Larsen for years. Whatever you think of Ed Schultz, he plays a whole lot better to that crowd than Randi Rhodes would. And I say this as a huge Randi fan....

If people want Larsen to lose his share, keep Ed on at the noon til three time slot. Better yet, Get KPAM to replace Hannity with Schultz's syndicated show and let them all go head to head.

It couldn't help but improve KPAM's dismal ratings.

See, e.g. Limbaugh, pals get liberally thrashed.

[kaitykaity]

116. I live in Portland, too, and Randi'll play no matter when

she's on.

I don't think that MR will play during drive time,
so KPOJ might just stick with this winning formula,
if they can get Ed and Randi to play nice with each other.

It is soooo cool to see Lars and Hannity get stuffed
though, isn't it?


(I listened to KPAM from back in the days of Sheila Hamilton
and Bill Gallagher, until AAR started, and I really liked
Victor Boc a lot. Lost all interest when KPAM and Boc 'parted
ways.')

[depakid]

117. I know you do... :)

KPAM would do well to edge back into their "Radio Free Oregon" format.

I'm guessing that they're regretting that change right about now...}(

[kaitykaity]

120. It's sad, too, b/c Dwight Jaynes and Pete Shulberg are

supposed to be really good guys.

From what I heard, they have Greg Clapper working there now,
and he and Victor used to go "rounds."

(And gawd, isn't that Victoria Taft woman just horrible?
I used to listen to her Saturday show before I found Guy
James.)

[jean]

119. S- word? Very Bad Form! Ed also said Al is dirtying up the airwaves,

that AAR is in financial trouble and the word in the radio industry is they might barely make it to the election.

This kind of bad mouthing really turns me off. I don't know if Ed and his crew got snubbed at the Dem Convention or what - but he seems to have a HUGE chip on his shoulder and today just totally lost control of his mouth.

After his tirade over Al and Randy he went on to allow Ralph Nader unlimited talking time with next to NO rebuttal. Very disappointing.
