God bless Charles Barkley!

Mr. Barkley lays the smack down on the so called Christian right!

Gotta love the fact that he's an independent! WOOT! He respects McCain, but he sees the bigger picture . . . especially as far as the right-wing "judge and jury" Christians are concerned. You go, Charles!!! He may convince me to move to Arizona if he wins governorship! LOL

Hmmm.... didn't sound real independent to me... he wants a Dem either way. He might respect McCain, sure.... I respect what Obama's accomplished, but I'm not going to pain myself out to be politically undecided or ambiguous.

On the RRR of course, I'm the first to point out their errors since I once lived in the belly of that beast. A better verse to cite against them though would be "speaking the truth in love..." - In all my years of being a member of a church or working in one, I've not heard much truth spoken, and when it was, it was in anything but love.

Welllllllllll . . . before I'd vote for Charles, I'd wanna have sex with him . . .

Boy, that's a good way to shut me up Snark!


Or it would be, were it possible to shut me up, so...


I'd give him (and every other candidate for Governor, Senator, Representative, or President for that matter) a quiz on the capital city, language[s] and ethnic group[s] of all the countries with which we have significant military or economic dealings. Nothing short of a 95% would even be eligible to be on the ballot.

Nice try Snark, good luck next time, *grin*

He's just mad, because he's not in Bushies 5.

I wanna be in Charles' 5!!!!!!

... and RG ... I already gave Charles that test ... as a warm-up. You know ... foreplay. He got a 98%! So there!

¡Yo soy no deportisa! So I have no idea what RM and you are talking about with the Charles 5, Snark.

As for international trivia as foreplay... I live in quite the glass house, since Tess and I use etymology, scrabble, etc.

But c'mon... most of those meat head jocks are lucky to know what the capitol city of this country is! Something about testosterone poisoning or repeated blows to the head...

I'd love to see a "Jay Walking" segment with both sports players and politicians.

And could you imagine "Are you smarter than a jock?" "Are you smarter than a politician?" It'd make "Are you smarter than a 5th grader?" look like a Mensa entrance exam!

I'm amazed McCain is still in the race... it seems to me most people with half a wit and half a soul (such as Colin Powell) have steered well clear of it, or get sloughed off by the 1st or 2nd primary.

(And in all humility, I don't know all the countries to which we give $ or military aid, so I'd probably score an 80 at best.)

I ADORE those Jay Walking segments!!! Hilarious! I always point to one of those when I want to make a point about "the masses of asses." LOL.

Oh, the "5" thing refers to one's "Cell Phone Five."
