Great news: Superman to renounce his U.S. citizenship

But he could STILL be potus - 0bama has set the precedent.

“Superman drops in on an Iranian protest to stand with demonstrators in an act of nonviolent civil disobedience, the U.S. government takes him to task for acting as an instrument of national policy. Superman responds by renouncing his American citizenship”

So if you reason that through, the State Department gets on Kal’s case and he tells them to take a hike. After decades of the most powerful villains in the universe, it took Hillary Clinton to run Superman off.

My screen name aside, I'm done with comics. Thanks DC, it's been a fun ride for the last 40 years...but this is the proverbial straw that's broken the camel's back.

Isn’t he … an illegal alien? Since when did we start admitting people from Krypton, anyway?

Don't be silly. George and Martha Kent were both US Citizens, and they adopted him, making him their son and thus a US citizen as well.

And publishers wonder why comics struggle to sell 30,000 copies a month nationwide. The imposition of anti-American and liberal (I repeat myself) views and fantasies is why many long-time readers like me left many years ago. One more icon dragged into the leftist mud. Thank God for back issues.

Superman is Arab. Just ask Hamas, Homodinejad and Obongo.

Superjerk can shove it where the sun don`t shine. And what a racist he is for not kow-towing to The One.

Obviously, Superman is racist! A black man becomes president and Clark Kent leaves the country! Great Caesar's Ghost!

So?! He’s an illegal Alien anyway. /s

Though a special grant of waiver should be considered. I mean, how the heck would we deport him back to Krypton?

It blew up into billions and billions of little pieces and no longer exists.

There is no government to negotiate his repatriation.

Besides, Superman is more American than a good many Americans and MuBarak Obama.

Superman responds by renouncing his American citizenship and proclaiming himself a citizen of the universe…

That's the point at which kryptonite becomes a good thing.

All Superman will get this Christmas is a lump of green Kryptonite.

BTW, I seem to recall that the last time Supoes decided to become a “citizen of the world” it was in the Justice League Animated Series. He didn’t renounce his citizenship in so many words, but he showed up at the UN and told them he was getting rid of all the nukes. Similar storyline happened in Superman IV, IIRC.

How’d that work out? In the Justice League version, a few months later we were nearly wiped out as a species by a massive invasion force of White Martians. In the Supes IV version the Nuclear Man nearly screwed us all.

In other words, past comic writers used the idea of Supes putting America aside as an indication he had lost his way and started deciding that he had enough wisdom to solve our problems for us. Now they think it means he’s smart. Why? Because he thinks like them.
