Did you notice that Ork never wanted him back?

Maybe he was the first illegal alien invasion.

On a serious level, Williams was concerned about the apathy of many voters. "I talked to a lot of Canadians who said: 'I don't know who to vote for -- and I don't care!' But you have to say: 'In Afghanistan and Iraq, if you vote, you're putting your life in danger. It meant something to them.' "

But they wouldn't have been allowed to vote in those countries had Williams' candidates won.

"You are like in a parallel universe. It's almost like an alternate universe. It's America but not. It's a weird thing to be in Canada. It's like we're two children separated at birth. We left home early. You stayed with Mom."

Williams is saying here that he admires Canada for being a socialist "nanny state". He really should just move there. At least, I wish he would get out of my country.

Robin Williams is yet another idiot who thinks that being a celebrity makes him smarter than us peasants.

BTW, the shirt reads, "I love New York" in Arabic!

He's just another "Hollyweird liberal" in denial about the political reality.

Canada's Liberal Party loves those types of people as they representation the base of our Liberal Party. They claim to be "fiscally conservative, socially progressive" which is one of the least common positions on the political ledger.

This statement tells you a lot about the people he talks to.

Just an entertainer who has an arsenal of useful gimmicks. Unfortunately they are mostly juvenile and get tiresome quickly.

Williams was in Toronto shooting an American political satire...

More liberal hypocrisy, the Hollywood liberals film in Toronto to avoid having to pay a good living union wage to Americans, who can then provide for their families.

Some years ago, Williams paid a large cash settlement to a young woman who caught a case of a clap from poor Robin. Bet she didn't think it was funny.

Back in his 'Mork' days, I used to enjoy Williams. Then one night I saw him on the Carson show. During the appearance Carson got out about two or three sentences, while Williams proceded to do a sit down 'stand up' routine. Carson used to let some of this guests do this. Dangerfield used to take advantage of it, and he was quite funny when he did.

During the routine Williams flitted from one topic to another, hitting on about 5% of his offerings. The audience was silent, Carson was watching unable to rescue Williams even if he'd have wanted to.

What this revealed to me, was that Williams was no different that a high school class clown that did little more than make it so others couldn't learn from the teacher, or in this instance enjoy an evening's entertainment.

When comedians are on, and they are hitting, it's a real high. When they're on and not hitting, it can lead to severe depression. Here you are putting out your best stuff, and there's no adrenalin payback. The audience is silent and you feel it and linger on it long after you have crashed and burned.

Then came Williams political comments. After hearing how abysmally left he was, I just couldn't stomach the guy any longer. It's one thing to excuse a bad performance, it's another entirely to excuse away abysmal citizenship.

Look, I recognize people's right to free speach. I recognize their right to rant and my right to be repulsed by it. If a person wants to trash our leaders and our policy fine, I am also able to evaluate those rantings and determine what my response will be.

Williams can self-destruct if he wants. I don't have to respect it or think of him any better than I would a traitor, if his thoughts are that offensive to me. And at times, they come damned close.

I have no use for the guy. Keep him off my television screen and somehow I'll survive.
