Charles Barkley to Alabama: “We’ve got to Stop Looking like Idiots to the Nation”
FinkelBlog ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 12/12/2017 4:36:07 AM PST by governsleastgovernsbest

Morning Joe opened today’s show by insisting that Steve Bannon had insulted Alabama when he suggested that University of Alabama alum Joe Scarborough, unlike Bannon, couldn’t get into Georgetown or Harvard.

If that was an insult to Alabama, it was something of a three-rail bank shot. But a bit later, Morning Joe aired a clip of Roy Moore foe Charles Barkley insulting Alabamians in the most explicit terms. Said Barkley:

“At some point, we’ve got to stop looking like idiots to the nation.”

I’m changing my prediction from a 10-point to a 12-point win. And Barkley will be the idiot.

Charles, old buddy, you shouldn’t talk about someone looking like an idiot. I saw the video of your golf swing before Hank Haney worked with you.

That's good. Should be part of the FR banner.

I'd even say it should be required memorization by conservatives everywhere.

Then tell Obama to stop giving anti-American speeches overseas, come home and get a job.

Yeah you dumb rednecks, be smart like Mr. Milk Dud head here and vote for the lib who supports tax-payer funded penis inversion surgery, vacuuming out babies brains and selling them for science, abolishing the 2nd amendment (in practice) and raising taxes on hard-working Americans.

Thank God this twit didn’t run for anything back when he was a RINO.

"At some point, we’ve got to stop looking like idiots to the nation."

Physician, heal thyself:

Then-married Charles Barkley arrested for drunk driving in 1991 en route to solicitation

Former Phoenix Suns player and NBA star Charles Barkley told police he was in a hurry to receive oral sex from a female passenger when he ran through a stop sign drunk early Wednesday, a police report states.

The report, released late Wednesday by Gilbert police, details how Barkley not only made candid references to his impending rendezvous with an unnamed woman for oral sex, but also how...he told a civilian employee, "I'll tattoo your name on my ass" if it would get him out of the DUI, according to the report.

Hey Charles, stop talking and Alabama would be a better place. Besides being an NBA star, what did you contribute to society? Did you cure cancer or invent something that would give society a better life? If not, Shut the F up!!!!

I picked it up off of ucansee2’s home page a few months ago and it caused me to google more of Heinlein’s quotes.

Many of them are very useful in supporting our arguments and I’ve compiled a library of them just for that purpose.

Good fun.

Chuck was a serial adulterer, groupie-shagger, orgy participant and worse when he played for the Phoenix Suns. His sexual escapades while married were well known.

What an @ss.

“So let’s vote for a genocidal maniac!” Yo Charles, the best way to stop being portrayed as an idiot is to stop behaving like one.
