  That was about seven minutes too long, but I agree with Mr. Mason all the way.

  Besides: Anyone who uses Dick Dale for his theme music must be good!

  This guy is a comedian?Talking about people looking for another line of work?

  Maybe he should give some thought to sharpening up his own resume.That bit with the bat and ball?
  I gott’a tell ya,that was a side splitter.I would have to think that enunciation and articulation might be a prerequisite for a stand up gig.

  He could also work on his facts. Domestics are in the shop 10 times more than the imports?Anybody know the source of that stat?
  300,000 jobs I,m reading estimates of upwards of 3 million.

  I guess the good news is,that he doesn.t command much of an audience.

  @mikey,

  The guy is a comedian not a politician. His facts are fine as they are. He is not asking for a loan to bail out his show. He makes enough money to be concerned about redistribution of equity plans, especially the one that would continue making cars and trucks no one wants to buy.

  @autonut

  His facts are not fine.I would consider them a gross exaggeration.

  Celebrities,and thats a reach for this guy.Anyway
  celebrities that use thier status to sprout political crap don’t hold much weight with me.

  I wish all of them from the right and the left,would just shut up.

  Well, I suppose he’s not Paris Hilton, but Jackie Mason is a celebrity after a lifetime of Broadway, TV and movies. At any rate, it’s a pretty thick resume, and that’s why he can say unpopular things.
  How’s your resume, mikey? Lots of job skills and education?

  I agree with Mikey
  Also I must have missed the “George W. Bush votes Yes” article.

  At the risk of incurring Mr Farago’s wrath.
  Naaah…. on second thought,personal attacks are
  beneath me.
