PHILADELPHIA (CBS) Chris Stigall spoke with comedian Rob Schneider on Talk Radio 1210 WPHT about the struggle comedians face in todays current political environment.
Schneider struck on ominous tone when discussing the path he sees the country on.
Democracies dont end well. We are sliding very fast towards fascism. Its an ugly kind of thing. Theres this kind of mob mentality that we have to be careful of, he said.
He believes comedians are pressured toward one side of the political spectrum.
Theres a polarization thats happening I do think you look can look at government and go, Wow, it is out of control now, and if you do criticize or tend to be not directly along a liberal stand, you can get murdered, Schneider commented.
Schneider was very critical of the Presidents handling of the economy and he feels certain policies are impacting businesses.
Theres not one segment of business under the Obama administration that hasnt been hurt he attacks for-profit schools, which is totally an elitist thing from a guy that went to Harvard. I think for free, by the way, Schneider said.
He was also critical of the media for being overly influenced by the government and not standing up for the American people.
We dont really have freedom of the press. Its owned by about eight different companies, and it doesnt really express or help the average American, Schneider stated.
He supported WOT but is a self professed Canadian libtard
AWESOME. Thanks!!!!
(Now, I’m afraid to watch. What if it’s not as funny as I remember? ... Better have a couple of beers to get my nerve up!)
Thanks again.
I was 14 when it originally aired. I’m guessing I may not have seen it (too late at night). But, yes, it is hilarious (watch for the scene-stealing Phil Hartman as Ted Kennedy fawning over Kitty Dukakis).
Alas, you realize their leftist ideology was a failed loser and marginalized by 1988, but yet today those radical and discredited forces hijacked our nation today. It shows how much we’ve changed for the worse... :-(
It tells me the video is unavailable. :(
I just clicked on it, a short commercial ran and the video played OK. I tried 3 other websites that claimed to have the video and it was taken down. You might try it again and see, unless something is blocking it on your server ? :-\
No video on that site will work. Maybe it doesn’t like my browser.
That sucks. I’m not sure where else to locate the vid... :-(
Use Apple products then!
Phil Hartman - a MALE victim of domestic violence.
Ping for later read. Thanks for posting, Impy!

You mean, the “Old Country Buffet/Lawrence Welk Society/Socialist ‘Conservative’” LOSERS did nothing while the leftists regrouped, refined their methods and reengaged?
I’m shocked and chagrinned...
I think Dennis Miller has converted them.
Well, State Farm just dropped him for his comments...
