I watched it live on Fox.
All the lead-ins to the appearance talked about how Baraq was coming on tv to make a statement about the shootings.
It seemed surreal when he started talking about the Dept of Interior stuff and went on and on.
Doubt that it will have any effect, SCM will put it into a lock box.
My take exactly as well. Parallel universe stuff.
Why should he condemn an attack on a military base? Some of his best friends were going to blow up a dance at Ft. Dix.
