Are you getting tired of being told that you're a racist if you vote for John McCain?
Well, former NBA star Charles Barkley basically told Campbell Brown that on CNN Monday, and went so far as saying: "The only way they can win this election is make it about race. That's the only way they can win it."
Barkley also told Brown that "the polls are flat-out useless" because "most people who are racists, they're not going to answer the question correctly"
Charles was a great power forward and is funny as a basketball analyst. He should stick to discussion hoops because whenever he opens his mouth about politics he reveals his ignorance.
“That’s turrible.”
ZZZ. Using ads portraying “Reverend” Wright is now considered racist. Obama’s legions are obviously stone drunk on the racism koolaid.
Play the sweet sound of those Wright/Obama ads. It sounds even prettier than the muslim call to prayer.
Turn off CNN and for that matter the tv.
Don’t purchase or patronize NBA and their gear.
Time for all to do the little things until the big things get changed.
He might as well have just said anyone who votes McCain is a racist.
correctly?
You mean Charles likes high taxes? I guess since he lost over $10 million gambling, he really needs welfare from Barack.
This is one of those rare occasions when the written word fails to capture the full impact of a celebrity doing his best impersonation of a poodle answering questions about sub-atomic physics.
Most people are not racists so what was his point make excuses for loosing?
Man, I’m so tired of this crap. From now on when someone asks me why I’m voting for McCain, I’m just going to answer, “Because I’m a racist,” and be done with it.
Didn't he?
Most are anti-commie too. Where does leave 0? Stuck at 0 E.V.?
Especially Blackjack dealers.
“Turn off CNN and for that matter the tv.” Check.
“Don’t purchase or patronize NBA and their gear.” Check.
Just say you are voting against his white half and then say- “you do know he’s half white don’t you?
Headline fixed. Tell Chuck that until McCain has 95% of the white vote he can shut up.
What a maroon. Encouraging people to vote for BHO because he’ll be the first black President isn’t racist, no of course not...
That does it. I’m taking him off my Fave Five list.
