Hat tip to Big Hollywood
Oh how the mighty have fallen. Chris Rock used to be such an inventive comedian with bits that straddled the fence politically. His first two major comedy specials — Bring the Pain and Bigger and Blacker — were from the Clinton era and are classics of ’90s comedy. Yet his two efforts from the last ten years — Never Scared and Kill the Messenger — both mostly abandoned his political heterodoxy in exchange for unoriginal Bush-bashing and wild-eyed Obama sycophancy. Apart from the politics neither were as funny as his first two efforts. Perhaps because they didn’t need to be? By the Bush era Rock was a movie star and TV show creator. He no longer needed groundbreaking stand-up shows to catapult him to success.
In the clip above Rock jokes about how conservatives who fought against Obamacare will explain their actions to their children. Somehow I think that perhaps instead of our offspring demanding to know why we opposed legislation akin to the Civil Rights Act they’ll ask us why we didn’t work harder to prevent the bankrupting of America. They’ll want to know why we thought it was OK to stick them with the bill.

Chris Rock doesn’t have a clue what he’s talking about.
Martin Luther King was a Republican.
Hey Chris, stick with your day job nobody sees you as speaking words of wisdom for all to heed.
I'm a black man who grew up in the south in the 1960s. I followed Dr. King closely, my entire family did. I oppose ObaMaocare because it's socialism. And I did not hate Dr. King. Chris rock is a liar.
Chris Rock doesn’t know what he’s talking about. Typical shoot from the mouth before you think.
Chris Rock is a muzz, as well.
There, fixed it.
I was a teen in the 60’s. I always admired his strength with so much adversity, yet he peacefully pushed forward. Dr. King was a Patriot. It was the democrats that fought against civil rights. But, I guess they don’t teach that in schools today.
The same Chris Rock who thinks California belongs to Mexico.
Go home, moron......
He is having a problem with the right side of his brain interfering with the left brain.
Just think, people died so this idiot could make where he was...
This is what happens when you’re uneducated, did crack, make money and think you know everything.
Obviously, he knows less about his roots than the fake ‘black’ president who spilled no blood on Pettis bridge, was never locked up for civil rights and in fact lied about ‘Selma got him born’, when he was born four years before (but who knows).
He was never on a bus getting integrated. He denies the grandmother who raised him, when his own mother and anybody on the African side could give a damn about him. That’s a mental illness. In the past, blacks would blow off anyone who dissed their grandmother; If they had no respect for the family, they were no good, period. That goes to show the black family has been in shambles for generations. No respect, gratitude, traditions, common sense or courtesy.
Obama has had the best of schooling and has nothing in common with the American black population. They should have called him out for playing the race card before anyone. How are they doing now with almost 30% unemployment, no school vouchers and him being in bed with the dumbing down public school system (of course, that’s beneath HIS kids).
They never thought once on where this dude came from or asked those in Chicago what he did for the district.
Thank God i’m an American and not just a black ‘victim’, I would be ashamed and raising hell.
He’s a poser and comes from generations of traitors.
They’d better wake the hell up and figure out their color was used; In the end, they’ll be hurt the most. Though I wish it on no one, they deserve it for being dumbasses.
Those of us who attempted to warn them caught more hell than any non-black person could. Now we have to suffer and they’re still hoping... No job, house lost, kids dropping out, being gang-bangers but waiting on King Obama for handouts.
I’m making a youtube response to Chris Rock right now...
Jeeez, if we're going to the 90's "Where are they now" file, what does Vanilla Ice think?
Chris Rock is a funny guy but he’s also a BIGOT.
Chris Rock does what is good for Chris Rock. It would be social and professional suicide for him to go against Obama.
Chris Rock is a talentless hack - his role in Lethal Weapon 4 was abysmal. He’s not funny, and can’t act. What a putz.

* grape soda sterilizes African-American males
Why is it that Chris Rock’s performances are 99% racist hate jokes against Whites ... but that’s Ok since he’s a Black comedian ... but if it was, say, Ron White doing the opposite, then ......
