Marion Barry: Weiner a 'good Democrat' By Bob Cusack - 07/28/13 12:49 PM ET
Former Washington, D.C. Mayor Marion Barry said Anthony Weiner is a "good Democrat" who should be talking more about his accomplishments in Congress.
In an interview Saturday night on Geraldo Rivera's show on Fox News, Barry said, "One bit of advice to the congressman: I'd stop talking so much about now and start talking about what you did for seven terms while he was in the Congress. He's a good Democrat."
A couple weeks ago, Barry said he can "identify" with what Weiner is going through.
Earlier in the interview, Barry and Rivera clashed about the ex-mayor's past brushes with the law.
Barry, who is now a D.C. Council member, balked at Rivera's characterization of his past drug scandals.
Barry accused the federal government of attempting to set him up, and twice used an expletive on the air. Rivera asked him to apologize, and Barry later did, saying he was "sorry he got upset."
Prominent Democrats have been critical of Weiner, including Reps. Nancy Pelosi (Calif.) and Jerrold Nadler (N.Y.).
David Axelrod, a former senior adviser to President Obama, said Sunday that Weiner is “delusional” and should drop out of the race for New York City mayor.
"I think it's time for him to go away and let New York have its mayor’s race," Axelrod said on NBC's "Meet the Press."
“good Democrat” is like “pretty ugly”.
I think I’ll change my screen name to Javier Badass
I think that’s code for a certain minority to vote for Weiner. Before you laugh, it worked for O’Bama.
STILL has a chance of winning (because all the other Democrats are IMMORAL) and Barry was RE-ELECTED SEVERAL TIMES after his cocaine "the bitch set me up" problem, and I think he's in trouble again for corruption!
geesh....the Democrat Voters are TOTALLY IMMORAL!!
Good democrat....
There’s no such person, place or thing.
He’s right, he is a good Democrat, he fits right in.
WEINER VOWS TO STICK IT OUT
DRUDGE
Berry’s just saying that because he knows he has a bigger cucumber than Weener and wants to be ‘nice’.
Biggest Double-Windsor Knot I’ve seen in a long time.
Looks like a whole bunch of “Weiners” and it appears that birds of a feather have flocked together, thereby “safety in numbers”.
Those people are SICK dogs.

Sick, flocking socialists. All of ‘em.
As Democrats go Weiner is one of the best!
Barry, the Snow (Cocaine) King says Wiener is good. Democrats better run in a hurry; corruption is on the way.
Yep, the pot calling the kettle shiny.
from the cocaine addict
Considering the whole of the democrat ethos, wiener is a near perfect democrat. All he lacks is an obvious, obscene personal fortune.
Birds of a feather flock together they say. The the morons will vote him in just like they did for Barry.
