CHARLES BARRON puts Tucker to shame!
I sure hope somebody made a video of this. This was fanatastic.

Tucker starts out his show by denegrating New York City councilman Charles Barron for his
opinions on Hugo Chavez, calling Barron "naive." Then Barron volleys with.. "Tucker, you
got kicked off 'Dancing with the Stars' because just like now, you are out of step.

Tucker further insults Councilman Barron by saying that he can't understand how Barron even
got elected to office... to which Barron retorts, "I can't understand how someone like you
got onto t.v., someone with such a limited amount of intelligence as well as a lack of
knowledge on foreign affairs."

Barron mentions Charlie Rangles' hypocracy over his comments on Hugo... "Earlier this
year, Rangles said 'Cheney isn't mentally fit to hold office.' So, it's ok for
one of our representatives to say Cheney is not mentally fit to hold office, but
a visiting head of state can't give his opinion on our president."

(Note, these are not exact quotes, but enough to give you an idea of what was said.)

6. Barron was on KABC (L.A. RW station) last night and he was GREAT
He didn't back down in his support of Chavez (because of Chavez's helping with heating oil in Harlem) and gave the RW host a history lesson about how the U.S. has propped up evil dictators around the world and how it's up to people like Chavez to fight on behalf of the poor. He brought up the CIA installing the Shah of Iran after kicking out Mossadeq, he mentioned Bautista, Pinochet, et al. and kept commenting how out of touch with reality the host and callers were, even as they spewed their standard neocon rants at him. I was laughing my ass off -- it was BEAUTIFUL!
