Conservatives make Sir Charles sick
Charles Barkley.
Love him or hate him. One thing is for sure – the man speaks him mind.
“I’ve got great respect for Sen. McCain, great respect, but I don’t like the way Republicans have taken this country. Every time I hear the word ‘conservative,’ it makes me sick to my stomach, because they’re really just fake Christians, as I call them. That’s all they are.”
Barkley continues…
“I think they want to be judge and jury, like, I’m for gay marriage. It’s none of my business if gay people want to get married. I’m pro-choice. And I think these Christians, first of all, they’re not supposed to judge other people. But they’re the most hypocritical judge of people we have in the country. And it bugs the hell out of me. They act like they’re Christians. They’re not forgiving at all.”
And of course, the Christian Anti-Defamation Commission is none too pleased…
“Charles Barkley revealed an unfortunate lack of understanding of the Bible and Christian morality by attacking pro-life and pro-family conservatives as ‘fake Christians,'” said Dr. Gary Cass, Chairman and CEO of the Christian Anti-Defamation Commission. “Barkley rips one phrase of the Bible from its context, and then asserts that anyone who is opposed to abortion or gay marriage is a ‘fake Christian.'”
Dr. Cass continues…
“We respect Barkley as an expert on basketball, but he is obviously not an expert on Christian moral theology. The Christian Anti-Defamation Commission calls on Barkley to apologize for his hateful remarks. We are hopeful that he will do the right thing.”
I agree with what Charles Barkley is saying to a certain degree. Not all republicans are fake Christians. The problem is, the ones with all the political power are. The amount of control they have over the party is downright scary. These republicans Neocons lacked this influence during the Ronald Regan area. Now it seems their machinations have no end.

I never understood interventions. What’s the point of being told you drink too much from a room full of reasons why you drink in the first place?

Chris Berman has a dirty mouth…I like him
I think this video speaks for itself. Word to the wise Mr. Berman – when the camera is on, you might want to mindful of that dirty mouth of yours. 🙂

Super Bowl Referee almost sacked Eli Manning
The New York Daily News is reporting that the spectacular 32 yard pass (The Grab, The Great Escape, The Patriot F*cker, ect.) to David Tyree on the Giants final drive almost didn’t happen.
Mike Carey, the Super Bowl referee, said Wednesday that his “radar was definitely up” when Eli Manning was clutched by two defenders with just over a minute left “because I knew a sack, or at least grasp and control, was imminent,” he said. Carey said “grasp and control” was never achieved either. That allowed the ref to patiently watch Manning throw the 32-yard pass that ended with David Tyree’s miraculous catch – the signature play of the Giants’ 17-14 win. Carey said he was never close to whistling the play dead. But if either Patriot had pulled Manning backwards, he might have had no choice.
I find it funny that the one thing New England had working for them during their perfect run was no where to be seen on this play – luck. Thank God because if that play doesn’t happen, we might had been forced to watch this commercial over and over again…
