"A strict observance of the written laws is doubtless one of the high duties of a good citizen, but it is not the highest. The laws of necessity, of self-preservation, of saving our country when in danger, are of higher obligation. To lose our country by a scrupulous adherence to written law, would be to lose the law itself, with life, liberty, property and all those who are enjoying them with us; thus absurdly sacrificing the end to the means."

Yeah, I listened to that earlier today. It was educational, yeah, that's it...educational.

Wherever it was that I saw it had additional info about Robert Downey Jr. being a conservative. I found that educational, too.
In a doomsday scenario, hippies will be among the first casualties. So not everything about doomsday will be bad.

Coincidentally , I was reading about Downey yesterday and he said " You don't go from $4,000 a night hotel rooms to prison and come out a liberal ."

When I first saw the tip, I almost wanted to ignore it in order to protect Lovitz. There was no doubt in my mind that if it went viral, he'd get slammed for daring to actually do something so-called comedians like Jon Stewart (star of the low-rated "Daily Show"), Stephen Colbert (star of the low-rated "Colbert Report"), Sarah Silverman, and all of "SNL" refuse to do -- and that's speak truth to power (when that "power" isn't a Republican):

This whole thing with Obama saying the rich don't pay their taxes is f**king bullsh*t. And I voted for the guy, and I'm a Democrat. What a f**king asshole. The rich don't pay their taxes? Let me tell you something, right. First they say to you, you're dead broke, 'the United States of America, you can do anything you want, go for it.' So then you go for it and then you make it, and everyone's like 'f**k you.'

Today, the Lovitz audio is practically everywhere and if past is prologue, he'll be walking it back and/or apologizing/explaining within 48 hours. The pressure will be subtle, most of it will come from behind the scenes, and at the very least the message will be sent that this kind of humor is unacceptable, unless of course it's directed at the Right.

The biggest mistake Lovitz made was in making the comedy effective; he hit the nail on the head with Obama's class warfare and the craven Occupy movement.

What Lovitz doesn't seem to understand, though, is that it's okay to mock Obama in the cowardly way "SNL" and the low-rated "Daily Show" do.
But to come up with something that might stick to President FailureTeleprompter is a big no-no.

Audio: Bold new critic of Obama’s class warfare nonsense emerges on national scene



It's what happens when you've had enough of hope and change......you curse uncontrollably. Normally all the language would turn me off, but I feel his pain.

I had begun a conscious effort in 2007 to curb my swearing ... but that went out the f*cking window when Stymie was elected !

I'll bet he's really happy when it's OTHER rich people who get taxed out the yin yang.

Yeah, OK, got around to playing this clip.

Let me see if I understand this...

Lovitz hates having half his earnings get pinched by the government.

Lovitz hates liars.

Lovitz hates arrogant morons who think they know it all.

So far so good...

Lovitz voted for Obama.

Maybe this -- Obama -- was his official mugging, you know, the type that turns a liberal into a conservative?

Somebody needs to ask Lovitz if he will vote for him again......talk, even dirty talk, is cheap.

If he would have said something like "I'm not voting for that jackass again!" maybe I would give him some credit in taking the first steps toward independent thought that can lead to a conversion from the plantation, but he didn't say that.  He's just pissed its his money being taken.  What about the rest of us that don't like it or any of the other crap the Left imposes?  If Obama gave exemptions to actors and comedians would be be OK with the theft of others earnings?  Right now all I see is a selfish person having a fit.  Let's see if it becomes more than that.

Lovitz stands his ground:

Quote
Obama critic Jon Lovitz debates “fair share” and tax lies w/Twitter followers

From Lovitz's Twitter feed....

"Because I criticized the President it's news? Last I checked, he's President, not King! This is America! Freedom of speech. What's the bfd?"

"@BowedOak, excuse me... the President is lying... I just pointed it out. It's not my fault he's lying."

"@RockyDhunes yes.... capital gains is money you make on reinvesting the money you have left over from taxed income."

"be it conservative, democrat, republican, libertarian.. liberal.. freedom to be true to yourself... that's what liberal means."

"@HesDanTheMan I don't mind paying a little more. I pay my fair share now. The President is lying to get votes..it's obvious and transparent."

"@LawyerGraham @AP well, you've proven my point. you believe the propaganda. I know what I am paying in taxes. You are being lied to."

"I was upset with the President LYING. I pay my fair share of taxes and so does everyone else I know who is in the same tax bracket."

Question: How long before the Leftist "greedy Jew bastard" knives come out against Lovitz? It appears he will not be drinking the koolaid.

"A strict observance of the written laws is doubtless one of the high duties of a good citizen, but it is not the highest. The laws of necessity, of self-preservation, of saving our country when in danger, are of higher obligation. To lose our country by a scrupulous adherence to written law, would be to lose the law itself, with life, liberty, property and all those who are enjoying them with us; thus absurdly sacrificing the end to the means."

Personally, I'd create another stand up act regarding taxation.......If you believe pub is good, even if it is negative.

Not quite, yet, but ...

PINSKY: You're a fat cat and you're complaining and that's what you're saying.

Lovitz went on Dr. Drew's show under the impression he was there to discuss an anti-Semitic "prank" against his daughter's friend when Pinsky blindsided him, first, with an outright lie, and then proceeded to mischaracterize his SNL rant.

I'm going to take a wild guess that some former classical liberal Hollywood conservative converts have already reached out to Lovitz, welcoming him to the club. I know for sure that Adam Baldwin (Jayne from "Firefly") has. I'd bet on Dennis Miller and Gary Graham too.

I really hope Dennis Miller has, or does.  He's still enough of a "social liberal" to not put Lovitz off, I'd think.

Lovitz does not strike me as stupid, so maybe he knew what likely would be coming his way from the Left as soon as word got out, but now that the ball is really rolling, he'll need to think hard about which path he intends to take.

I wish him courage.  He's gonna need it.
