SARAH PALIN

Charles Barkley Gives Props To Glen Rice For Supposed Sarah Palin Fling
Charles Barkley, who never met a controversial topic he didn’t like, discussed Sarah Palin’s supposed fling with former NBA player Glen Rice during a segment on ESPN Radio. Things we now know, thanks to this segment: Barkley thinks Palin is hot, he would not vote for her, and Glen Rice is his new hero.

Here’s the full quote, via Sports Radio Interviews:

“You know I have a thing for Sarah Palin, I do. I think she’s hot! I wouldn’t vote for her, but she is hot now. I’m talking both. I’ve always said, ‘I’ve got a crush on Sarah Palin.’ I would never vote for her. I always vote democratic because I think you have a better chance of helping poor people if you vote democratic. But, I’ve always had a thing for Sarah Palin. When I read that… Glen Rice is my new hero! He’s my new hero. You know she just moved in my neighborhood and I haven’t had a chance to meet her. I stay in Philadelphia in the summer, and I go back to Arizona when it starts getting cold. That cold is creeping up on me. I’m talking 50 or 60 degrees. So, I’m heading back to Arizona soon and I look forward to meeting Sarah Palin. Hey listen if that story is true, more power to Glen Rice.”
It’s worth pointing out that Barkley once had an awkward Palin-related moment of his own. During an NBA pregame show at Madison Square Garden that Barkley was co-hosting, comedian Tracy Morgan made unscripted comments about Palin that forced TNT to apologize to everyone, everywhere.

Congratulations to Ted Cruz! This is a victory both for Ted and for the grassroots Tea Party movement. This primary race has always been about the kind of leadership we need in D.C. Our goal is not just about changing the majority in the Senate. It is about the kind of leadership we want. Ted Cruz represents the kind of strong conservative leadership we want in D.C. Go-along to get-along career politicians who hew the path of least resistance are no longer acceptable at a time when our country is drowning in debt and our children's futures are at stake. The message of this race couldn't be clearer for the political establishment: the Tea Party is alive and well and we will not settle for business as usual. Now, it's on to November!
