Chris Rock suddenly worried about money in politics

“It’s gonna be interesting to see how mean they can get. It’s getting really, really, really mean. I wish we didn’t have to stoop to this level. I wish they’d made it like a real fight. We watch the Olympics right now, and everything’s fair. So I wish both guys could only spend the exact same amount of money, and let the best man win.”

I don’t remember Chris Rock complaining about Obama outraising McCain in ’08 and being really, really, really mean. But maybe Rock did. Yeah, I’m sure he did, or else Harry Smith of CBS News would’ve pointed out the discrepancy. It’s not like they’re a pair of brazen hypocrites or something.

Speaking of the Olymics, Chris Rock is a medalist himself. Don’t you remember him taking the gold in woman-hitting, flyweight division?

P.S. Zach Galifianakis is also very, very worried about money in politics. Let’s keep an eye out for any other millionaires against money being spent by people who disagree with them.
