Has Bartcop Jumped the Shark?
I never see any posts referencing him any more. I have to admit I don't visit his site as often as I used to but he seems to have disappeared here. He always said it like he saw it and the hell with everyone else.

7. wow - cancer?
I didn't know that. I do know that he recently had some ads on Air America.

Bartcop is almost more entertainment than anything else. You read it to get a kick...

2. I heard he has cancer, but I haven't visited his site in awhile.
Don't know if he's still posting. :shrug:

6. Bart is just fine
I visit Bartcop every day and he is as just as busy as ever. Bartcop radio is doing fine and he just came back from a Bart Poker Fest in Chicago.

9. Thanks for the update.
Glad to hear he's doing well. A Bart Poker Fest in Chicago sounds like a hoot.

5. He's still there, pointed as ever.
I go regularly and he seems to keep it up regardless of the cancer. Radio too.

8. I don't think so
Bartcop is still one of my daily stops. He is awesome, even though he only has an IQ of 64.

10. Bartcop, DU , All Hat No Cattle, and TruthOut
Are a good start of every day for me.

I don't subscribe to Bartcop radio, so I think he devotes a little too much to the project, but he's still high on my list.

12. BC Was Just Here In Chicago....
Playing poker and drinkin' Chinaco. He's a battler and not letting off that hammer one bit.

13. No, he's kicking the crap out of the shark...
I just love that guy. When I got laid off, I thought, 'Damn, now I'm going to have to cancel my subscription!', but then I thought, 'Hell no! I'll collect and sell aluminum cans if I have to.' He's gotten me through 5 years of this B.S. and all I give is a piddly amount each month.

Even when I've been burned out on everything regarding politics, I can still handle Bartcop.

14. NEVER He was my portal into this world of ours on the net
I would've jumped the bridge were it not for his humor, rage and whupass style of hammering Bush.
