Jon Lovitz, formerly of Saturday Night Live, and now making a living showing the world how verbally inarticulate he is, launched into a totally foul-mouthed diatribe against the President during his ABC's of SNL podcast, along with co-host Kevin Smith.
Lovitz, who purports to be a Democrat and says he voted for the President in 2008, sounded more like the Libertarian arm of the Republican party in what descended into a profane rant against the President demanding that the rich step up to the plate and pay more taxes.
Lovitz pays enough taxes, thank you very much, he reckons, before he launches into an insanely ignorant soliloquy about having to pay fifty cents on every dollar he makes, one dollar on every two dollars he profits. Uhhh ... I'll be the first to admit that I'm no maths genius, but I make that a 50% tax rate, something that's as foreign to the United States as universal healthcare.
The gist of this entire, five-minute, potty-mouthed rant is that Lovitz and the rest of the 1% with whom he (a Democrat, mind you) identifies, pay enough taxes and (his words) the President (whom he wantonly refers to by his surname only, just like every other Progressive opinionator in the country) is just a "fucking asshole" for even suggesting this.
Experience the articulace of Jon Lovitz, yourself:-
Comedy or not, it's poor satire, and in an election year, when you get a self-proclaimed Democratic big mouth with a podium, not only implying that the President is an arrogant idiot, but openly calling him a "fucking asshole," people, the Democrats are in deep doo-doo.
I hope the laughter in this segment is canned, because in listening to that, the only fucking asshole I heard and recognised was Jon Lovitz.
This guy obviously has a problem with the President, and I suggest to you that it's more than paying more taxes. But let's not say openly what it is, shall we?

ReplyDeleteAbsolutely spot on! He was on the Piers Morgan show after this and it was obvious the disdain he has for President Obama.
And it clearly has nothing to do with taxes.
And you're right, he isn't a Democrat - votes and supports Democratic candidates and causes only when it's white like Clinton.
The lies people like him tell especially when they strain for credibility by pretending they ever voted for or supported this President.
