'Oh, and One More Thing...

Thanks to our spectacular federal government looking the other way and not enforcing our existing immigration laws, (Obama even encouraged illegals to come across last year, remember?) we may not be able to keep undesirables from coming IN to our country. The good news is, there is something we can do to force some undesirables OUT. Full time Leftist zealot and part time singer Barbra Streisand has joined the list of whining celebrities threatening to leave America if Donald Trump is elected president.

That's right. So if you needed one more reason to vote for Trump, here it is. A vote for Trump is a vote to get Babs the hell out of here. This is enough to almost make me want to go out and buy Trump yard signs, wear "Make America Great Again" baseball caps, and dye my hair orange.

Streisand made the comments during an interview with Sydney-based journalist Michael Usher during an Australian news program broadcast last Sunday.

When asked why, Babs explained her reasoning in logical and meticulous detail by saying, "He (Trump) has no facts. I don't know, I can't believe it!" Then she went on to say, "I'm either coming to your country (Australia) if you'll let me in, or Canada." Tsk, tsk Barbra. Don't you know that threatening America's allies might lead to an international incident? What a great headline, "Funny Girl Goes Down-Under." Her career has been going down-under for years anyway, she might as well join it.

Hey, wouldn't it be funny if both those countries turner her down? Maybe she could move to Gitmo since Obama is clearing it out anyway. If that doesn't work out, there's always Syria. Since all the Syrians are moving out, there'd be plenty of room. Or maybe Babs would be happy in one of Hillary's favorite places, Benghazi, Libya. I mean, Malibu, Australia, Canada, or Benghazi...WHAT DIFFERENCE AT THIS POINT DOES IT MAKE?


I love how these entertainment industry libs always threaten to move out of the country if the candidate they don't like wins. I call it S.C.M.D.S. Spoiled Celebrity Melt Down Syndrome. Streisand is only the latest in a long line of Leftist celebrities who are packing their Louis Vuitton's to get the heck out of Dodge if Trump should win.

Among the other genius liberals who are ready to split are Lena Dunham, Chelsea Handler, Samuel L. Jackson, Miley Cyrus, Rosie O'Donnell, Cher, Jon Stewart, Raven Symone, Natasha Lyonne, Omari Hardwick, Spike Lee, Chloƫ Sevigny, Eddie Griffin, George Lopez, Al Sharpton, Neve Campbell, and Whoopi Goldberg. In the case of Neve Campbell, it's no big deal for her to move to Canada since she was born and raised there.

In past elections, going back at least 16 years, we've had celebrities who stated for the record that they would leave the country if their chosen candidate didn't win. And guess what? No matter how those elections turned out, nobody actually left. Not a one. Which is too bad actually. I really wish these people would keep their promises.

So this "threatening to leave" rhetoric is nonsense. It's just a sneaky way of campaigning for their liberal candidate, that's all. Barbra Streisand knows damn well she isn't going anywhere if Trump wins, except maybe into a larger gated compound with additional armed guards. If Clinton wins however, Babs will no doubt return to her favorite White House haunt from Bill's term, the Lincoln bedroom.


Here's the thing, when you're in your 70's it's way past time to stop acting like a spoiled brat. Saying "If Hillary doesn't win, I'm going to move out of this country" sounds like the kid who threatens to hold her breath until she turns blue if she doesn't get everything that she wants. Hmmm. Maybe Streisand does that too.

So this song is dedicated to Barbra Streisand, one of the deepest thinkers of our time.

Rich Liberals.
Rich Liberals who need rich liberals.
Are the yuckiest people in the world
They're children, really stupid children
Possessing no grown-up pride
And zero common sense inside
Acting more like children than children.
Come on, Babs. Stop holding your breath already!
