Is Tim Allen - The Actor/Comedian (Former Tim The Tool Man) A Flaming Republican?.....

I like his current tv show 'Last Man Standing' but I'm getting disgusted with the constant shots he takes at President Obama. Friday's episode he dumped on the Affordable Care Act and I'm thinking that this was more than intentional given the fact that we're into an open enrollment again. Timing is everything. As far as I'm concerned he's still a 'tool'. Should I send my complaints to ABC Execs?

Is anyone else here bothered by his constant barbs?

seems like a lot of reformed what ever are. he is a reformed drug addict and thief, so he is eminently qualified to be a republican.

so I don't give a hoot what party he supports: I just want his unfunny ass off the air! (No, I don't watch the show, but I am nauseated by the promos I have to endure in commercial breaks.)

Bama!

"It’s called integrity,” Allen’s character says. “Something Obama doesn’t have with that Benghazi thing.” It sounds ham-handed on its own like that, but it’s blended so smoothly into the scene that it comes off as laugh line – not a just a joke, not just a jibe, but a barbed point honed sharp by humor.

And, Whining about "the Socialist state of California"..

poor tim allen

Stupid brainwashed fuck. And, no I never did think he was funny. Guess I have different sense of humor.

The political part of the show is unusual because most actors and actresses are liberal Democratic. You find very few conservative actors in Hollywood. Let the Conservatives have their one show. Republicans yell and scream about The Newsroom. And definitely screamed about Law and Order and The West Wing. Most shows today have a liberal slant which is great. Now news programs are another story all together.

What, you think they're going to do anything because you don't like it? If it bothers you so much to want to actually send a complaint letter over it what on earth are you watching it for?

Call me crazy, but if I saw anything on tv I didn't like I'd not watch it. But hey, if you want to send a letter of complaint to ABC execs just so they can laugh hysterically over you're complaining about a show you're still watching helping to boost it's ratings, by all means, go right ahead.
