SUPERCHEF Mario Batali has taken to wearing a "Dem tag" around his neck to express his disdain for President Bush. The culinary king says that every waiter and maitre d' at his crown jewel, Babbo, also wears the tags, which are inscribed with various anti-Bush slogans. "My favorite one says, 'President Cheney?'" Batali told us. "Everyone's wearing them at Babbo. We don't have one fence-sitter." The left-leaning chef says he has a "big box" of the necklaces - made by his friend, designer Corrine Calesso - that he plans to pass out at his eateries Otto and Lupa. "I'm voting against Bush," Batali said. "I don't think that John Kerry is that great of a candidate, but it's just that Bush is so wrong." babboproblems@babbonyc.com

Otto is a pizza joint disguised as a restaurant. What a joke.
Moby?
I watch Food Network fairly often, but I never did like that Fat windbag with his pretty red shoes!
Is that the Soup Nazi hisself?
Meaning, once again, that the Leftists want to see Bush murdered.
Anti-American, pro-terrorist jackwits. I wonder how they'd feel if we all wore buttons wishing for their violent death?
Note to Mario - shut up and cook.
Dittos to that. Not watchin' ya anymore, pony tail clog wearin' fat girlie boy, now am I?
You can end that sentence after the word "think."
Dumb move, Mario. I still like your cook books though.
Why doesn`t he just wear a tag that says "I want another 911 and higher taxes"? Same thing as what he`s wearing already only more to the point.
Mario Batali is so insecure that he needs a trio of mouth-breathing sycophants sitting at the counter while he cooks his slop to shower his arrogant fatass with compliments. If one of the mouth-breathers asks a question, Molto Moron-io snaps at them in his know-it-all voice- He's bitter latley b/c the Atkins diet has sucked the starch out of his sails. He was never cut out to sniff Bobby Flay's jockstrap.
I'll serve grits instead of polenta, if that's what Italian-American cooking is about.

I agree wholeheartedly with Chef Batali ;-)
He was never cut out to sniff Bobby Flay's jockstrap.
Or Tyler Florence's. He is more pedantic than Algore.
Mario has Emeril envy.
"Meaning, once again, that the Leftists want to see Bush murdered."
Which is ironic since they'd hate a Cheney presidency even more.
Last time I ever watch his show on the Food Network. Malto Mario is finished in my household. he really gave himself away when I saw him wearing clogs. Let Emril start. He is friends with that dyke, O'Donnell. Just let him start and he'll be finished next.
