http://finance.yahoo.com/news/mario-batali-apologizes-comments-comparing-223445326.html Mario Batali Apologizes for Comments Comparing Bankers to Hitler, Stalin Celebrity chef and restaurant owner Mario Batali apologized for comparing bankers to Hitler and Stalin, while Wall Street executives reacted with angry comments and calls for a boycott. "So the ways the bankers have kind of toppled the way money is distributed and taken most of it into their hands is as good as Stalin or Hitler and the evil guys," Batali said. "They're not heroes, but they are people that had a really huge effect on the way the world is operating." ~snip~ |

Ever hear of a show called The Chew? It airs on ABC. Any guesses on who appears on that show? And doesn't ABC own ESPN? |

Like the true Hypocrite he really is. He can make some mean pasta, and his recipes are pretty great, but when it come to Politics he is just another crony capitalist who pretends to be for the little guys while stamping his ballot for progressive candidates & charging a small fortune to those Bankers |
