Tony Bennett: Americans Should Support Anything Obama Wants
CNS ^ | 5/1/09 | Nick Ballasy

Posted on 05/01/2009 9:42:13 AM PDT by pissant

Grammy-award winning musician Tony Bennett told CNSNews.com he “loves everything” Barack Obama has done in his first 100 days as president and thinks every American should “give him all-out support for anything he wants to do.”

Bennett further said that Americans should imitate the other countries of the world that support Obama. “I really hope that every citizen of the United States would imitate the rest of the world because they’re all for Obama,” said Bennett. “Every other country adores what happened – in our great country – to have him as president.”

Bennett’s comments were made at the National Portrait Gallery where he presented the Smithsonian Museum with a portrait he painted of the late jazz legend Duke Ellington, commemorating his 110th birthday on April 29.

“I love everything he’s done and everything he’s doing,” Bennett said of Obama. “I think we should give him all-out support for anything he wants to do. We should all help. He’s giving our country back to us, and that’s the laws of the land – the citizens own the country.”

Looks like he left his brains in San Francisco, too.

I wanna be around to pick up the pieces
When Obama breaks your heart . . .

I mean, I wanna be around to see how he does it
When he breaks your heart to bits
Let's see if the puzzle fits so fine

And that's when I'll discover that revenge is sweet
As I sit there applaudin' from a front-row seat
When Obama breaks your heart . . .

"every American should “give him all-out support for anything he wants to do."

Sure thing, Tony, exactly like you all did for President Bush.

Tony Bennett is not long for this world, he’s an old man. What does he care of the way this nation is headed into socialism? He won’t have to live with the results.

Even if it does happen in his lifetime, he believes himself to be of deep enough personal wealth it won’t affect him.

“should support anything” is blind loyalty and that is an unAmerican ideal.

Thank you, Mr. Bennett.

Now, go back to sleep, crazy lady.

Yes Tony Bennett is exactly right! Now let’s get this thing started Tony. Since Obama wants a redistribution of wealth from the fortunate like yourself to the rest of that are without, I want you to write me a check for $1 million. Thanks again. Isn’t this a great country!

“Hmmm. I think he’s Lebanese”

No. He is Italian. His real name is Anthony Dominick Benedetto.

Don’t vomit, but Benedetto means “blessed - holy” in Italian.
