This seems to happen all the time nowadays and it really pisses me off. You can’t get away from it. It’s everywhere. Everyone’s doing it. I went to see Robin Williams live in San Francisco for one of his stand up routines. Ok yeah, it was expected that he’d talk politics, but I at least thought he’d take a unique approach to it. Nope. He was doing the same Sarah Palin jokes that every other lame comedian was doing. How original. He would also talk about how great Obama was. Dude, you’re a comedian not a political commentator. I also went to Lebowski Fest in SF. Jeff “The Dude” Dowd, who was the inspiration for Jeff Bridges’ character made an appearance and said a few words. Every time he spoke, he was trashing Sarah Palin. What the hell? I’m here for fuckin’ Lebowski Fest, not to hear your drunken political ranting. More recently I caught a clip of Stevie Wonder performing on American Idol. Man, was I let down. I was expecting pure awesomeness from his performance, but instead got a lackluster piece of shit. He was off pitch most of the time and could barely enunciate the lyrics. Plus in the last song of his medly, he says “I love you Barack Obama!” Wow, seriously? Please leave out the lame political commentary. It just pisses me off!
