Angie Harmon Not Pleased With Obama & Definitely Not Pleased People View It As A Race Thing
Posted on 31. Mar, 2009 by CSS.
Angie Harmon is not happy that Barack Obama is in the White House—but the actress wants to make it clear that her discontent has nothing to do with race.
“If I have anything to say against Obama it’s not because I’m a racist, it’s because I don’t like what he’s doing as president and anybody should be able to feel that way, but what I find now is that if you say anything against him you’re called a racist,” says the brunette, best known for her role as an Assistant District Attorney on Law & Order.
“I do think McCain would have done a better job, only because I think he has more experience,” she said.
“But it has nothing to do with it, I don’t care what color he is. I’m just not crazy about what he’s doing and I heard all about this, and he’s gonna do that and change and change, so okay … I’m still dressing for a recession over here buddy and we’ve got unemployment at an all-time high and that was his number one thing and that’s the thing I really don’t appreciate,” Angie told FOX News’ Pop Tarts column on Monday.
“If I’m going to disagree with my president, that doesn’t make me a racist. If I was to disagree with W, that doesn’t make me racist. It has nothing to do with it, it is ridiculous,” she fumed.
“I also think if W or John McCain or Reagan would have gone and done a talk show, the backlash would have been so huge and in his face, and ‘What is our president doing? How unclassy!’ But Obama does it and no one says anything.”
Angie even believes Sarah Palin would have done a better job running the country than President Obama.
She says: “I admire any kind of woman like her. My whole motto is to know what I stand for and know what I don’t stand for and have the courage to live my life accordingly and she does exactly that. The fact that this woman has made the decisions she’s made and literally lived her life according to that and takes heat for it is absolutely disgusting to me.”
“I really think they’re afraid of her and her morals, ethics and values and the fact that she hangs on them. Is she the most experienced person in the world? But she was running to be the vice president, so we then put the most inexperienced person as the president. That didn’t make any sense to me.”

SNL-John McCain A Hit & Then A Miss….
Posted on 02. Nov, 2008 by CSS.
Saturday Night Live kicked off with John McCain and Sarah Palin. The real McCain, but not the real Sarah Palin. Tina Fey was back with what will be, if she sticks to her word, her final performance on the Saturday show as the Alaska Governor.
McCain and “Palin” were on QVC on the skit, in rebuttal to Obama’s Wednesday night 30-minute ad, because the time came cheap as long as they would hawk a few products. As Tina-as-Palin explained as she stroked her lovely, designer jacket, running a Presidential Campaign expensive.
Senator McCain announced the pair’s first product, a 10-piece collector’s set representing the ten town hall meetings the Senators McCain and Obama had. He stepped over to reveal ten blank, white plates, because, as he explained, Obama refused to do town hall meetings.
The second product was presented by Palin, a complete set of Joe action figures, plumber, six pack, and Biden. Her favorite being the Biden doll, whose string you could pull and he would talk for 45-minutes straight.
McCain then took the opportunity to talk about the crossroads in American history we all find ourselves in this election year… until Palin interrupted to announce that there were only two minutes left to order the Washington Outsider jewelry!
Which brought McCain to his “Fine Gold” line of jewelry, presented by Cindy McCain. That joke wrote itself. The next one had to reach a bit further, Sarah Palin’s Ayers Freshners, to plug in when “sumthin’ doesn’t quite smell right.” Plus, as Tina said, it keeps on reminding you of William Ayers!
The final official product was John McCain Pork Knives, to “cut the pork out.”
Then Tina’s Palin goes rogue, taking the camera to the side with “PALIN in 2012? t-shirts, “just wait til after Tuesday to wear them.” Whether they win or not, she says, Palin isn’t going anywhere, she’s either going to be in the White House or be White Oprah.
From off camera, McCain asks, “What’s going on over there, Sarah?”
“Oh, just talkin’ ’bout taxes.”
Before the Senator delivers the obligatory line for opening Saturday Night Live, he tells the QVC audience that he is a true Maverick, a Republican without money, so had no choice but to go on QVC. And unlike Barack Obama, he doesn’t have Hollywood connections, his only showbiz supporters are John Voight and Heidi from the Hills. – That was pretty funny!
He closed with, “When you go to the polls remember “Country First”, and as a reminder, all undergarments are unrefundable.”
John McCain was as willing and funny as I knew he would be. He really seems to have a sense of humor, it’s just been markedly missing, or strangely askew, for the past couple weeks. He got plenty of laughs and alot of applause. He seemed to be a hit.
And now the miss….
But then he came on Weekend Update. There was actual booing when he was introduced. Senator McCain delivered an interesting array of “last minute strategies.” The “Reverse Maverick”: where he does whatever anybody tells him. The “Double Maverick”: going totally berserker and freak everybody out. The “Sad Grandpa”: Obama has a lot of time left to run for president, voters should give him a chance. People laughed at his bad ideas, but not in the good way. When Seth Myers asked which he was going to use, McCain got serious for a minute and said he was going to stick with his basic strategy… connect with the voters, stand by his record, etc. And if that doesn’t work, probably the Double Maverick.- Personally I’d like to see that sad Grandpa!
One sketch too many, Senator.
Ben Affleck was not as good as I’d hoped he’d be. He had a couple of funny moments, but more than not, he was disappointing. Singer David Cook, on the other hand was excellent.

John McCain Will Be On SNL Tonight.
Posted on 01. Nov, 2008 by CSS.
John McCain will be returning to Saturday Night Live, the McCain campaign has confirmed. McCain was the featured host in 2002, and this will be the Senator’s second cameo appearance this year. It couldn’t come at a better time, for him, either. The November 1st show is airing just three days before election day and SNL has been a great way to get a little push in popularity this election.
Aides to the Republican presidential candidate said Friday that McCain will make a detour from battleground states to appear on “Saturday Night Live,” the late-night show that has been a must-watch for many during the political season.
McCain last appeared on “Saturday Night Live” in May, after clinching the nomination and while the Democratic primary continued. The 72-year-old Arizona senator joked about his age, saying: “I ask you, what should we be looking for in our next president? Certainly, someone who is very, very, very old.”
When McCain hosted “SNL” in 2002, he mocked singer Barbra Streisand’s political advocacy by performing a medley of her songs.

I cant decide if it’s going to be really awkward to watch or if he will do an alright job… guess i’ll have to wait and see- thats the good thing about tivo if it gets to uncomfortable to watch i can always fast forward!
I wonder how Ben Affleck feels about sharing the spotlight with the Republican Presidential hopeful- Affleck is a strong Obama supporter and has even hinted around to the fact that some day he might throw his hat in the political arena…. should be interesting.

The Movie SwingVote Isn't That Far Off Base…
Posted on 18. Aug, 2008 by CSS.
As Breaking News broke that Angelina has not made up her mind on which Presidential Candidate she will back, the nation sits on the edge of its seat…. (Or so all the gossip mags would like you to think)
Who will it be, Barrack or McCain? Sadly it will probably sway the vote (among the mindless).
