Comic George Lopez Threatens to Leave Country if Palin Elected President! Palin Spot on – on Economy “It’s the Spending Stupid” – Obama Support Erodes


George Lopez - Will he leave Obama if Palin Becomes President? Image Daily Mail UK

From: Politico: Comedian, George Lopez is threatening to leave the country should Sarah Palin become President. Lopez, a Californian native, plans on moving to Canada, according to Politico. The comedian suggested that Palin’s lack of experience and the American ability to vote for someone who winks and smiles would be the reason he’d flee the U.S. It almost makes one wonder if Mr. Lopez isn’t somewhat confused, and instead is referring to the current occupant of the White House – who’s on the job training included a short stint in the Illinois State Senate, followed by a shorter stint in the U.S. Senate with previous experience as a “community organizer”. Palin, comparatively speaking, when one is honest, had more in-depth experience in governing than our President in 2008 and some might argue, she still does. Mr. Lopez is the first “Hollywood Celebrity” to threaten to leave the country – al la Susan Sarandon in 2004 – Bush was reelected, Sarandon stayed. One note however, Canada is very strict on its immigration policy; therefore, Mr. Lopez might want to consider say France!

The ongoing, ad nasuem, “sky is falling” rhetoric regarding the “debt crisis” from the White House and media, is beginning to drive the average American to the apathetic stage. From the “Boy Cries Wolf” analogy – one crisis after another starts to become rather ho-hum, from a stalemate in Washington (as if that’s news) to the Presidents’ ridiculous call for American’s to call Congress and ask for a tax increase (OK, that’s not what he said exactly, but it’s what it amounts to), Palin’s take: from the ABC News blog, speaking in an interview, she called the President’s latest “crisis”, “Obama drama”. Note to George Lopez, not only in Palin smart, she’s got a comedic side as well. In addition, she borrowed from the “Economy Stupid” Clintonesque campaign staple, ramping it up to “It’s the Spending Stupid” – which is spot on and hits home for millions of American’s who are just getting by if they have a job, or in some states, on their third year of unemployment, and in many cases, have fallen off the rolls, hearing about Obama’s plan for a $30,000 plus a plate birthday bash on the taxpayers dime? The spend and tax method of governing is obviously not working, and the people “get it”.

A new Washington Post-ABC News Poll (No bias there (wink) – suggests that more American’s are unhappy with Obama on the economy – and that he is losing support among his base. The report also points to the fact that Obama is not alone in this public angst, as respondents (most likely the base they are referring to) continue to blame George Bush, and Republicans in Congress are taking heat for the gridlock over the debt debate (most likely from the same source).

It’s to the point where Vermont’s most cherished Socialist, Senator Bernie Sanders, is suggesting that someone within the Democrat party actually challenge Obama in 2012 (The Hill Blog) Apparently, Senator Sanders believes a challenge would help put the spotlight on Obama during the Republican debates – seriously. He also felt it might be difficult to find someone who wanted to run against an incumbent, however, truth be told; it might be interesting should any Democrat want to jump in the fray – but whom? Perhaps Donald Trump will switch parties again, and run against Obama!! - The Donald, who has hinted that if the Republican Party does not nominate the right person, will run as an independent, and may consider throwing a real wrench in the mix and run as a Democrat! Who wouldn’t want to see that poll right now?
