I do not support the gay agenda at all and I think their lifestyle is wrong, but I totally like Tammy Bruce.

[dfwgator]

I thought Barkley was going to run for governor of Alabama.

[Slyfox]

Barkley mentioned one time of his desire to run for governor of the state of Alabama.

I suspect this got more air time on FOX than it did on CNN.

And shes lipstick!

[RAT Patrol]

I don't want to know what she is, thanks anyway. (LOL!)

[Phantom Lord]

Meaning she is a feminine, and atractive women. Not a short haired, plaid wearing, she man!

Could CNN's signing of Barkley indicate they've finally seen the light and realize Americans like to hear from people who are willing to challenge the prevailing culture orthodoxy? I hope so.

Don't be silly. It's for ratings. How many folks would tune in just to see a famous black contrarian? Quite a few, I'd wager.

Not that I disagree with Barkley's actions (at least the ones mentioned here). And I do think it's a good thing to get that viewpoint out.

But it's unlikely that CNN has seen the light. I doubt they've seen anything other than the prospect of increased ratings, and a way to compete with Fox.

wasn't the Chuckwagon on O'Reilly the other night? If so I missed it. Did anyone see it? Any comments on the interview? THanks in advance

Good work and thanks. It is only through reports like this that millions of us are able to know what is happening on CNN. Not, that many of us care, but it will be nice to kep aware of the CNN derath spiral as it occurs, much like Drudge has kept us aware of the salon death spiral and, soon to be, crash.

[Phantom Lord]

How was on last night. Bill kept harping on Charles throwing that guy through the window. And Barkley kept saying, if you throw a drink on me, Im gonna throw you through a window. Im gonna defend myself.

Bill kept telling him to just call the cops.

[Vets_Husband_and_Wife]

I caught enough of him on O'Reilly to hear him say his Momma is mad at him, cause she is a Dem and he is Independent.

I can't recall what he said about being Gov. of Alabama, but it was addressed. (Obviously I was busy)

But I must ask, isn't Charles Barkely the guy who said "HE WASN'T A ROLE MODEL"?

"Didn't want to BE NO ROLE MODEL EITHER?" (not exact phrases)

Hats off to him, if he has "seen the light" so to speak.

From what I did catch, he seemed articulate, and seemed reasonable. We'll see.

[Red Jones]

Barkyey is OK; and not only that he is only 6'4-1/2". Yet he played forward position and was one of the very best. He'd routinely play opposite fellows much bigger than him and beat them. He wasn't just good, he won NBA MVP one year, even though he was very under-sized for his position.

He'll be a pretty good commentator, but not a politician.
