WoooooooooooHAT??


I know, right? Why do mediocre has-been actors and performers been so adamant about grabbing the political spotlight in this election??? Yes, another powerhouse A list celebrity has endorsed another political candidate, that being Rick "The Nature Boy" Flair. Mr. Woooooooooooooo has endorsed Mike Hukabee as his presidential favorite. Sorry Shane, im not attacking the wrestler himself; he was a damn fine performer back in the day. It bothers me to no end that has been actors think they have some kind of pull. Sure, Chuck Norris could have swayed the election with his chin-fist, but after he shaved off the beard, we realized he does in fact have a chin and not a 3rd fist.

I dont remember this kind of mediocre endorsements in prior elections. It was really big when an organization, such as the NAACP, AFL-CIO, or any other legitimate Union would endorse you. Hell, politicians would scramble and fight for that nomination and they actually meant something. But those days are over. It appears all you need to do to be president is to knock on the surreal life door and pray that Mini-me, Webster, or Vanilla Ice were home. Jose Conseco doesnt count however.

Im not just annoyed that these C-Lister's nominate GOP, coz LORD knows George Clooney and Jason Alexander are out there begging to announce their endorsement for Hillary Clinton or hell, George Clooney. What annoys me is that it gets the front page treatment. There are more important things going on in the world that deserve more attention that Norris and Flair.

Side note- For those of you who love Real Time with Bill Mauer, let me take you back to the funniest dis EVER (2004 Election year)...

Ron Silver (Actor)- "I cant get work in Hollywood anymore because I vote Republican"
Bill Mauer- "You cant get a job in Hollywood because your name IS Ron Silver"

It is RIC Flair, and he is the greatest of all time. He's the wheelin dealin, limousine riding, high flying, kiss stealing, Space Mountain. He can support Huckabee all he wants, he's at least more of a voteable candidate then Rudy, Freddy, and the Mormon.

True, hell, he could endorse Harey Carey for all I care, it doesnt mean its news-worthy material.

Last thing we need is Jim McMahon with a 12-pack in each arm slinging endorsements for the Mormon. Dont think it wont happen to!!

It won't, Jim McMahon I believe is the only non Mormon ever to be allowed into BYU

I doubt he would remember, but lets say; Tom Cruise and the other Zenu's...Im sure his cult will endorse the other cult.

1. Who would vote for a candidate because he was endorsed by some pro wrestler?

2. Ron Silver can't get a job in Hollywood because too many people saw "Time Cop" and those four episodes of that god-awful drama he was in two years ago where he played a Porn King. Blame your agent, not the liberals, Ron.
