Go away, Bob. You are getting so stale - nobody is more annoying than a single issue has-been...

Bob is 92. If he is just now getting stale he's a human Twinkie.

The way he’s tackled “single issue” is honorable though. He focused his fame in his job first, and then animal rights.

He’s never thrown red paint on someone, yet he’s also (As far as I know) never mentioned anything about George Bush being a war criminal or Dick Cheney being the devil.

I wish more of Hollywood was like him. Am I wrong here ?

I agree, he spoke as a gentleman, and did not associate with the wacko zealots. A decent man doing what he felt needed doing. Of course, I respect that. I just got tired of is spiel a long time ago, excuse my insensitivity.

How many people would have traded places with Bob, just to punch out Adam Sandler?

I think Bob Barker has been CGI for about 20 years now.
