We can’t get enough of Marion Barry and there is so much more to dive into. And he hasn’t even been officially elected to the council yet.

Courtland Milloy in his column in Sunday’s Post questions whether Marion Barry can survive himself. Barry is, after all, a tired, ailing champion of the people.

Barry is now 68. He has hypertension and diabetes and has been treated for prostate cancer. Those who love him ought to insist that he take better care of himself. Instead, many of his supporters and fans are treating him as if he were some ageless wonder, full of the vim and vigor of old.

Despite all of this, Barry can still deliver great sound bites and one-liners. Milloy notes that when Barry’s spokesman commanded the former mayor’s bodyguard to take control of Barry’s his cell phone (he apparently loves to answer his cell phone, even if it during a media interview), the soon-to-be Ward 8 councilman replied: “Hey, hey? Horses eat hay.” After resisting, Barry eventually gave up the phone.

And then there’s the City Paper.
