Marion Barry looks and sounds like he is back on the pipe, and a bit drunk.

[Danzig]

He won with 96% of the vote.

 

[Sharon]

Never underestimate the power of idiots in large groups.

 

[Kizzy]

Well the upside is he did take good care of the officers while he was in office.

My gawd...what is up with this country??

 

[SmallTown]

"Washington D.C.! Home of the million man march. We had all the positive black leaders there. Farrakhan... Jessie... Marion Barry. Marion Barry! At the million man march! How did he get a ticket? You know what that means? That even in our finest hour, we had a crackhead on stage! Yea boo if ya want, ya know I'm right."


"Who was so bad they lost to a crackhead? What was their campaign like, were they on heroin? 'Vote for me! Don't vote for crack, vote for smack!'

"How is he gonna tell kids not get high when the man's on crack?
'Don't get high you won't be nuttin.'
'I could be mayor!''

-Chris Rock

It just scares me, having Barry win AGAIN, for any office...

I get that old train wreck mentality... horrified, yet strangely have to watch all at the same time...

OMG What are those people thinking?

Free crack?

 

[crabcake]

Now now folks ... I'm suuuure he's been rehabilitated.

I'm not saying I think he should be in office. I think he had his chance and he blew it (or did he snort it? ) ... I'm simply saying that, in this country, in this day and age, NOTHING surprises me ... not even the landslide election of a crack addict!
