Remember Ricky Schroder from the 1980’s tv show Silver Spoons? Anyway, Mr. Schroder is now 39 years old and has been married to the same woman for 17 years . He’s also the father of 4 children. He has made his way through Hollywood in his adulthood appearing in NYPD Blue, 24, and Scrubs. I will extend him props for being in Hollywood and remaining married to the same lady alone. He’s also a devout Mormon.

Those things known, CNSNews.com caught up with Rick Schroder at the recent White House Correspondents Dinner here. Schroder re: the Obamanation – “I don’t think he’s getting that support he needs from those other folks so I guess time will tell,” said Schroder. “I don’t know if it was the right decision to go into debt as we have so I guess time will tell, but I’m always inclined to not spend more than we bring in – as a household, as a man, and as a country. So, my inclination is it’s risky.”
Hmm, well said, albeit very basic common sense. Isn’t funny how someone in Hollywood says something equatable to 2nd grade math skills and common knowledge, ie that one should live within his means, and it stands out as newsworthy…..

Schroder then said that “he hoped that the Obamanation doesn’t raise taxes higher than Clinton did…” and continued – ““But, you know, when you start talking about 40 percent income tax and 10 percent state tax in California and almost 10 percent sales tax in California, it’s getting a bit ridiculous.” Well said here too, this is a great lesson for limited government proponents – keep it simple. Point out the obvious – that taxation in excess of 50% is ridiculous and scandalous.

Update : This just in, Spike Lee, Oliver Stone, Sean Penn, Danny Glover and Susan Sarandon held a press conference today criticizing Rick Schroder’s recent comments.

Spike Lee – “Rick should know better, we have uniform conformity here in Hollywood, our Leader is not to be criticized in such a way…”

Danny Glover – ” Rick is clearly a racist, we have to start the effort now to boycott Silver Spoons Nick at Night reruns, this must be stopped!”

Susan Sarandon – “I think that the authorities should pursue Nick Schroder based on egregious hate-crimes violations.”

Update : This just in, CNN, upon hearing about Schroder’s racist, anti-Obmanation comments sent in Susan Roesgen to cover it live…..

Roesgen – “Well, you can clearly see here that Ricky Shcroder’s right-wing comments are racist and catering to the right-wing network Fox News. He clearly doesn’t understand that his homestate of CA is getting bailed out and he shouldn’t complain about his taxes, I have to hand it over to you, this is clearly not family-friendly…”

And after a brief moment of sanity in the midst of Hollywood, one lone voice amongst them is silenced…..
