Last year, Sarah Palin-hating comedian George Lopez said that if the former governor of Alaska ever became president, all Latinos would move back to Mexico.
On Tuesday's "Piers Morgan Tonight," he took this further saying that if Palin gets to the White House, he'll move to Canada (video follows with transcript and commentary):

PIERS MORGAN,HOST: You said on immigration, "Elect Sarah Palin as President of the US in 2012 and we'll all leave voluntarily."
GEORGE LOPEZ: I agree. If Sarah Palin becomes president at any point, I will say allegedly, I will move to Canada.
MORGAN: Really?
LOPEZ: I will go further north. I've been south. I'll go further north.
MORGAN: You would literally leave the country?
LOPEZ: I would leave the United States of America.
MORGAN: Why would you be so drastic?
LOPEZ: I like my politicians to actually have a political background, to be politically -- to know politics, to actually have inherited something from working in the political world.
MORGAN: Why is someone like Sarah Palin so popular with so many people, do you think? How does she resonate with people?
LOPEZ: Well, she's --
MORGAN: What is she giving them they're not getting from conventional politicians?
LOPEZ: I -- is it that maverickness? Is it that homespun kind of Andy Griffith wink your eye, shift your imaginary gun thing? Maybe. Is it just that we've become a culture of personality? Of do we elect somebody by their smile instead of by their content? It's a little bit of all of that.
Of course, we heard this same nonsense in the last decade when numerous Hollywoodans including Alec Baldwin said they'd leave the country if George W. Bush became president.
Sadly for us, they never did.
So, I wouldn't hold my breath that Lopez will stick to his promise, but he sure does hate Sarah Palin:
•George Lopez Cracks Sarah Palin is ‘Evil Egomaniac That Might Destroy the World’ •George Lopez Cracks: ‘Every Latino’ Will Leave US if Palin Elected, ‘We’ll Go and Take Canadians with Us’•George Lopez: Latinos Will Move Back To Mexico If Palin Becomes President •George Lopez Calls Sarah Palin A B***h On National Television *****Update: Readers are advised that CNN and Morgan used this segment to promote Tuesday's program.
At 5:19 PM Tuesday, I received an email message from one of CNN's publicists alerting me to what was going to air. It included a link to Morgan's CNN blog advertising the clip as well as the embed video code.
At roughly the same time, Morgan tweeted to his followers:
"If Sarah Palin Becomes President at Any Point in Time, I'm Moving to Canada" @GeorgeLopez VIDEO: on.cnn.com/rsVTZ1
So guests bashing Palin are now a vehicle for CNN and its hosts to promote their programs.
Isn't that special?
why? mexico won’t take you back?
Hey Lopez, why wait? Move your ass now and don’t come back!!!
Reason enough for my vote!
Adios Jorge!
Bye George, don’t let the border hit you in the ass going north to the frozen land. You suck as comedian anyways. You’re supposed to be funny in your line of work.
Wow - she was already on my short list but if her election ends up with a mass exodus of illegals...She’s got my vote!
Yahoooooooooo..!!!

Promises, promises. Lying liberals never keep their word.
Hey george, start packing now, avoid the rush.
I can’t wait! George Lopez, the Pied Piper of the Mexicans. Get to tootin, George. I’ll even go down to the border and clap as you and your band of illegals go “home.”
Will Canada take him? I hear it can be tough to immigrate in many cases.
If Omoslem gets elected again, we might as well move to Iran.
Of course he’s seeking viewers to his show with this nonsense....
Why wait?
If you hate America that much then leave now and don’t let freedom and liberty hit you on the ass on your way out.......
Liar he’d be lost any where else.
ya might want to check wi Canada first the boy... they prolly won't even let yer azz in
