When Alec Baldwin Is the Smartest Man in the Room

Alec Baldwin explains to liberals why they weren’t mean to Palin. He actually has some very nice things to say about her.

And while I’m on the subject, I can’t be the only right-winger who enjoys Alec Baldwin’s portrayal of a conservative Republican (and, for that matter, Tina Fey’s portrayal of a neurotic, perfunctory liberal; she’s a bit like Michael from The Office if Michael realized exactly how stupid everything he said was right after saying it) on 30 Rock. They have plenty of political jokes in the show, but they’re actually pretty good because the writers seem much more concerned about being funny than making a point (i.e., no clapper humor).

Anyway, here’s one of my favorite scenes. I especially love Alec Baldwin’s portrayal of a white man:

  1. Sorry, Alec Baldwin makes me want to retch. Every time I see his smug mug I want to punch it and I’m normally a very non violent, kind, tolerant kind of woman. I have yet to punch a hippie in their dumb monkey face, so sorry but my reaction to Baldwin is somewhat visceral .

    I’m glad he makes someone happy though. He sure makes enough people miserable including his child(ren) and ex-wives, not to mention the rest of us.

  2. Sorry for the double post but this just came to me. When Alec Baldwin is the smartest man in the room it’s time to leave that room, nail the door closed, pour lye in a circle around the building and then burn it down……. I know, I know extreme but very effective.

    Sometime I tell you what I really think about good ‘ol Al.

  3. Alec Baldwin has the IQ of a strawberry poptart. The entire set of Baldwin brothers have a cumulative IQ equivalent to 13.

    Hollywood………………………………Rest of America
    3000 — but never occurs……………..150 Gifted
    160 (Sharon’s reputed score )……….100 Normal
    100 Normal for Hollywood…………….70 Retarded
    35 – Balwin Brothers (cumulative)…… 13 Severely Retarded
    5 – Alec Baldwin 0………………………. A gifted strawberry poptart

  4. On a related topic Sharon Stone has accepted a deal to become head endorser / spokesmodel for SkankNut Flakes. Post Cereals reportedly said she is a perfect fit for our product. Adding that they market their high fiber cereals almost exclusively to Hollywood liberals who have their heads so far up their rectums that they have not crapped in years.

  5. I do have to admit – that skit was hilarious, and while I’m at it, DiCaprio was excellent in The Aviator. Now, granted, he depicted a Hollywood nutjob sliding off the deep end, so it wasn’t much of a stretch, but still…

    When Alec Baldwin does show his true stripes and actually speaks his mind, I just think back to the scene in Team America where he gets his head blown off. They really should do a sequel with a Keith Oberman puppet fed into one of Saddam Husein’s wood-chipper shredders he used to execute political prisoners. If you could concentrate enough irony to make a black hole, that would do it.

  6. I hate to admit it, but Alec Baldwin used to be one of my faves until he started opening his mouth off camera….which is true of many of my formerly favorite actors. If they would just keep their mouths shut and do their jobs we’d be much happier (and I could stand to watch 30 Rock, cuz it is pretty funny)

    Do not fret. I am officially retired from being non-violent, kind, and tolerant, and will be most pleased to punch him – at least once for me and once for you.

    and

    2. Freemon SandleWould: Way good on the SkankNut comment. My hardy laugh for the day.
