Obama White House remembers Andy Griffith

The Obama White House released this statement from the president today following the death of TV legend Andy Griffith:

Michelle and I were saddened to hear about the passing of Andy Griffith this morning. A performer of extraordinary talent, Andy was beloved by generations of fans and revered by entertainers who followed in his footsteps. He brought us characters from Sheriff Andy Taylor to Ben Matlock, and in the process, warmed the hearts of Americans everywhere. Our thoughts and prayers are with Andy’s family.

While I prefer to remember Griffith as Sheriff Andy, I’m sure the Obama administration will always hold him in high regard for his role as… a shill for ObamaCare:

    With their pathtic “racist” leanings better save your sorrow for Redd Foxx, etc etc- This white house seems to believe any comments made against Obonehead, his wife the “first linebacker’” (lady?) or Holder are rooted in race- soooooo damn sick of people hiding behind the race card- here in my town of St Louis, a girl I went to high school with (white girl) was kidnapped and raped for 6 hours by 3 black men- Sharpton nor Jackson showed up, and Shela Jackass Lee made no comment- I wonder why? It is really old all the “racist” (god the meaning is gone from the word) that are brought up are just lame excuses- An a-hole is an a-hole no matter what color they are- thik you can deal with that?

    One of those life’s disappointments, seeing one of your favorite actors spouting flaming liberalism. I saw Andy in a different light after that.

    I know many older Americans who grew up watching Andy , enjoying Andy on TV, felt very betrayed when he went out and pushed ObamaCare, which at that time we knew was taking 500 billion $$ out of Medicare
    Recently another beloved older celebrity Betty White was pushing AARP, again I know there is backlash, why , oh why do celebrities get involved with politicians , it really is a no win situation for them

    Don’t hold it against a really senile old guy. He was manipulated by charlatan . Unlike the others of the Hollyweird set, just remember we are taking down their names and will kick b utt with their lack of income also residuals from movies, books, TV and whatever else they are trying to sell. It continues to say volumes about the deceit, lack of both sincerity & true empathy that resides in OUR WH. Of course, we are speaking to the choir, other than trolls, and hey, they will have a clue after this election, one way or another.

    I once thought a lot of Sheriff Taylor. Used to watch the Andy Griffith show every night when I was a kid. When I heard Griffith support Dear Leader’s Obamacare, I never watched that show again. Sad to say, but I smirked when I heard he had died today. SOB should have lived long enough to see what his Commie friends have wrought on the people of this country. Pfffft… Didn’t shed an ounce of concern for that rat. Good bye and good riddence.

    Hey 0bama, did you ever offer condolences to Border agent Brian Terry’s family?
