Jon Lovitz goes off on Obama (Jon was revving up the engine when the light turned green...!)

“Saturday Night Live” alum Jon Lovitz sounds like he’s pretty fed up with President Barack Obama.

“This whole thing with Obama saying the rich don’t pay their taxes is f---ing bulls---. And I voted for the guy and I’m a Democrat. What a f---ing asshole,” Lovitz recently said on his podcast “The ABC's of SNL." The episode was recorded in January and released on Sunday.

Welcome to conservative thinking, Jon. Hopefully you will continue to change.

If it becomes too much of a burden, I’m sure he can find employment as a Master Thespian to supplement his income.

If that is the case, then why do they keep having $30,000 a plate fundraisers at places like George "Looney" Clooney's house?

BTW, how does paying 30,000 for 2 dollars worth of food get around the campaign finance restrictions on donations????? I would rather have straight up unlimited donations than all the crooked creative naming that goes on.

You are correct! He was Tommy Flanagan, the pathological liar. You know...he and Obama do have a lot in common after all!

I said "a lot of his Hollywood pals," I didn't say "everyone in Hollywood." Clooney is a well-known hard lefty, along with Susan Sarandon, Cher, Shirley McLane, Whoopie Goldberg, Ted Dantzen, etc., etc., ad infinitum.

Hollywood, like any other workplace, is probably made up of factions and fiefdoms. For all I know, Lovitz sees Clooney once or twice a year, never talks to him, and doesn't depend on him for work.

Clooney's an medium-good actor, Lovitz is a comedian and a rather good one. Clooney's career skids were greased by his very famous mom. Lovitz had a childhood connection into the biz, but somewhat more tenuous. In any event, stand-up comics are some of the smartest people in the entertainment industry; they have to be. An actor can be as dumb as a post and it makes no difference at all, most of the time.

There are a few exceptions, of course. Judy Holliday, Jill St. John, (possibly) Julie Newmar come to mind among women. Also (possibly) Ann Margaret, and for sure Hedy Lamarr. Pat Sajak and Tom Sellick strike me as being pretty intelligent too, but they don't have the reputations that the three ladies I named have.

Those in Hollywood probably know very well who the dumb-dumbs are, just like people in any corporate culture come to figure out who's pulling the wagon and who's going along for the ride.

Mr. Lovitz has probably calculated that his career won't be hurt by going public with his opinion of Obama. He's probably right, too.

Lovitz’s right... Taxing society's producers out of existence isn't the best plan...

Jon Lovitz may not have come out as a conservative, but she has...

Master Thespian

Reminds me of his "Tales from the Crypt" part, begging John Astin to give him a role in the play.

OTOH, Lovitz did beat up Andy Dick a couple of years ago. Won't let go of blaming Dick for the death of Phil Hartman.

“his wife Morgan Fairchild..”

“That’s right...Morgan Fairchild....she’s my wife.”

I like Jon Lovitz pretty well.
