Exceedingly polite callers on Randi Rhodes's show...

[skypilot]

...often seem to turn out to be conservative jackasses. Some guy just called and addressed her as Mrs.Rhodes. I knew right away what he was about. He asked Randi if he could "take some liberties" with some things she had said. Randi told him "I think what you mean is that you want to argue with me, so go ahead." He told her that she made him sick to his stomach and asked her if she was willing to hear from a real neoconservative. However, he kept stumbing over the pronunciation of neoconservative. Randi suspected that he was reading from something. She hung up on him.

7. From talking points to reading from a script

It's a REAL lameass who has to READ A SCRIPT to get the rightwing talking points right. And just like Braindead Leader, he fumbled and mispronounced ...
