Forget the fact that Savage was clearly walking into hostile territory. They paired him with CHARLES BARKLEY, for crying out loud. If you can get a latenight stream of the show, you have to listen to him dissect the interview.

WOO-HOO!! Thank you! Bookmarked!!!

[EaglesCry]

BARKLEY: No disrespect to your father -- he's an immigrant?

SAVAGE: No, he's dead.


LOL!

Neville and Larry King are examples of why CNN is the Cretin News Network. Long live Fox News Channel!

However, as an outsider, someone who's not privy to government inside information, if I were a consultant, I would say, go to China. ... He is in their sphere of influence. They do not want that Asian sphere of influence upset by a madman.

This line of thinking is logical but not wise. We must never act as if we acknowledge ANY Chinese sphere of influence in Asia. To acknowledge any Chinese sphere of influence outside of China's borders would be to put our stamp of approval on China's "multi-polar world" concept and acquiesce in the deterioration of U.S. supremacy in the Pacific.

And like it or not, it is U.S. supremacy in that area that allows democracy to thrive, period. It is only due to our dominance there that no other Greater East Asian Co-prosperity Sphere has risen up to rob us of our Pacific territories. Dominance in East Asia requires large investments but we must be willing to make those investments in perpetuity.

Seriesly, who is Barkely. Savage seems to suggest he plays basketball and it was said he works for CNN. I've never heard of the guy. I must admit I have also not had TV for almost six years now.

BTW, savage ripped ALL of them a new one, and I don't even like him.

[Jeff Chandler]

Charles Barkley debating Michael Savage? That's like an infant battling a Samarai!

[the gillman@blacklagoon.com]

I heard of Savage, but who is Charles Barkly?

He didn't sound bad at first. Then he just couldn't hold up his end.

I like this guy Savage, he sounds like me, only warm and soft and cuddly.

[Paul Atreides]

I know that when I want an opinion on a weighty issue I always go to a basketball player.

Interesting that Barkley finally resorted to name-calling.

[the_doc]

I think Michael Savage has cast himself as a talk show "tough guy" a little too energetically. Charles Barkley actually is a tough guy--and pretty bright, too.

There's no way Savage could come out looking good in this one.

[Libertina]

GO SAVAGE GO!
Savage to Barkley "I don't know who you are."
Barkley: "Either do I."
LOL Priceless. A street thug trying to hold a conversation with a hot-rod fast PHD. Way to screw up CNN! But they now have lost ALL authors from a big PR firm. LOL Morons

[Shermy]

Savage doesn't know who Charles Barkley is! Makes sense, with his views about sports. A discussion about sports between the two would be something to hear.

[NeoCaveman]

BARKLEY: Oh, I bought a Hummer. That's -- and I'm going to go out and buy another Hummer, just to piss her off.

Many thanks to a great patriot, a great American, Charles Barkley.

I loathe Ari(head)eanna Huffington!

bump for later

>>Forget the fact that Savage was clearly walking into hostile territory.<<


Sometimes it's better to take the fight to the enemy. Savage may be just the man to do it.

[rintense]

I saw this today. I expected to be impressed by Savage. I wasn't. As a matter of fact, neither of them impressed me. The biggest argument against illegal immigration they could have made is that it's you and I- and the people in that audience- that pay for the prisons to house them, as well as the healthcare that they use. If you want impact on an issue, hit people where they will feel it the most- the pocketbook.

[B Knotts]

Well, you know, Barkley has a record of intellectual debate, like when he said "That's what I hate about white people," or when he spit on a little girl in New Jersey.

[Atlas Sneezed]

What's with the names of the people they let ask questions?:

Cabel (ph)
Tykila (ph)
Moja (ph)

[Atlas Sneezed]

"SAVAGE: Excellent. Can you please tell me -- what's your education level?"

"BARKLEY: This is what I do. I went to Auburn University. I went to Auburn University."

Yeah. I went to the Sorbonne. Then, later that afternoon I went to the Eiffel Tower. Barkley does not seem to have earned a degree, even though he was giving the chance for a free education as a fine university.

[CIBvet]

Man I sure hope someone puts this up as an audio file so we can listen to it live.

Savage exposes ignorance for what it is .... Big-mouth Barkley, "... dummy ... go dribble your basketball ... you couldn't shine my shoes"!!

ROTFALMAO

[jagrmeister]

Charles Barkley is a perfect candidate for a populist Republican who gives the party a modern image that we need. Let's face it- Michael Savage isn't going to add anyone to the ranks with his angry, white male act. Barkely is a Republican, is well-known, is not shrill, has a cool persona, and speaks in the language that draws in ordinary folk. Probably a bad idea to have Savage show the ugly face of conservatism on TV while badmouthing ("shine my shoes"- i mean c'mon- that sounds bad given that Barkley is black) someone who could attract young voters and minorities. I know this is going to draw the wrath of Savage fans but that's how I see it.
