Larry Gude
Strung Out
...yes, good old BJ has some serious issues.
As many of you know, MASH's BJ is quite the entrpreneur and his success has allowed him to indulge his true passion; fighting the death penalty.
Fine.
Now, as far as that goes, striking it rich and spending the rest of your time chasing your dreams, THAT is the real American Dream. Houses are nice, having retirement taken care of is nice and living comfortably including travel is nice.
But to be able to run amock and have people sticking microphones in your face, well, now that is something else.
Anyway, as the Iraqi elections are not worth the time of day to the media, as they seriously do not dove tail with endless stories of failure in Iraq, SOMETHING has to fill air space; Why not a homicidal maniac who has Hollywood cred? Tookie!
So, Larry King has on loser Geragos (decidedly anti death penalty as his clients can't very well pay him if they are dead) a judge who knows ALL about Tookies case and some guy who is a pro death penalty advocate.
Geragos talks all about how 'tough' it is to spend life in jail and that that should be severe enough. The judge says if anyone had it coming the Tookster did. The advocate says "If we execute ALL murderers we cheapen our society. If we execute NO murderers, we cheapen our society. By executing some and not others we are saying some crimes are SO bad that the ONLY just punishment is death and, conversely, some murders are not near as bad and thus we value our society by reserving compassion for some cases."
TOTALLY reasonable guy.
So, here comes Honeycutt, on camera, live at the Toookie Circus, just smoking rage at this advocate guy; "You sir, make me sick sitting their joyously pondering execution! I despise you!"
The guy is like "Hey BJ, I hate you back, beyotch."
So, this goes on as long as Larry King sees value in it which is to say he stops it when BJ starts sounding like an ass. Which is to say PDQ.
Me? Here is this pompous ####er, rich, independent and with a cause. He can work up all kinds of obvious hatred for this guy yet declare, without reservation, that no one deserves death, except maybe this advocate dude.
Hey BJ? where's the emotion, where's the hatred of ####ING MURDERERS who end INNOCENT peoples lives for NO, ZERO, reason???
I now actively don't like you.
