Chris Baker desperately wants attention. It’s rather sad and pathetic. So we probably shouldn’t do him the favor. But given that Baker somehow commands four hours of air time each weekday in the Twin Cities market, it’s worth highlighting the KLTK (FM-100.3) host’s latest inane rant. As captured by Media Matters, Baker’s beliefs about voting rights:
“I don’t think homeless people should vote. Frankly. In fact, I have to be very honest. I’m not that excited about women voting, to be honest. … But that’s just me. I’m a pig, and that’s fine. All right? And we’ll see that, I’m sure, on a lame-ass website very soon. But I don’t think hobos ought to vote at all. They’re nuts. And I think that there needs to be a little more care in who votes.”
To be honest, we’re not that excited about Baker voting. But apparently the U.S. Constitution, or somesuch document, says otherwise. Here’s the clip:

I just stumbled upon on this site, and I did’t read very much of your comment. But it didn’t take long to understand who you are. I am no expert, but I am no idiot. If you claim that you are a independent ?, you might of looked in the mirror before making a stink about this. If you listen to Chris enough ,you would understand who he is and his personality, Sarcasm is one of his traights. Although, this may not be sarcasm, and might be what he believes ,you might want to portray the whole story, verses how you want to portray him. Much like 99.9% of all liberals do. I am not saying I agree with him or disagree, but tell the whole story and not just part of it. And make sure it is the truth. We all have reasons and answers for all the problems we face ,but let each person tell there own story. I am sure ,I can take a story or comment that you made and twist it into anything that I wanted to. But that isn’t fair either is it. I respect Chris Baker and who he is. What he talks about the most, if you listen, Is common sense. If you take a look at what our government is doing ,this my friend has gone right out the window. If you ask me, there are a lot people that maybe should’nt be voting. Just because you come into this country ,wanting or needing something, and being told that you will get it if you vote for a certain candidate. This probably being a lie, why does this give you the right to vote. I understand the meaning behind this, that every voice should be heard. But greed ,at the cost of others isn’t right either. There is no perfect answer. But it might be a start to have a certain level of testing by educated people ,being able to vote. But tell me who would write the test for that one. Liberals ! . You might have picked up that I am a conservative, a honest day’s work, for a honest day’s pay. No more freebees. If you don’t get off your butt to earn a wage for year, don’t expect me to send you some money at the end of year.
