Susan Sarandon: If Obama loses, I’ll be “checking out” leaving America

What’s the time? It’s about that time. She’s been a trooper up ’til now — 36 years of her life lived under Republican presidents and still, somehow, she hasn’t left yet. How does she stand it?
She must be a bona fide SuperPatriot.
“I’ve got a lot of flak from feminists who feel that I should be supporting Hillary Clinton, but I thought the whole point of feminism is that you’re not supposed to be defined by gender,” she says…
Always busy, Sarandon is about to start work on the romantic period drama The Colossus, but with the presidential election campaign being heatedly contested, she also has bigger things to consider.
“If McCain gets in, it’s going to be very, very dangerous,” she says.
“It’s a critical time, but I have faith in the American people. If they prove me wrong, I’ll be checking out a move to Italy. Maybe Canada, I don’t know. We’re at an abyss.”
Exit question: Why only “checking out”? Is that a nod at McCain’s maverickiness? Amnesty plus campaign finance reform plus emissions caps must count for something.

They ALWAYS say this kinda crap but they never do it. PLEASE SUSAN, LEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAVVVVEEE.

take a hike, honey. and take your loudmouth husband and sean penn with you.
i am actually thinking the exact opposite; if obama wins, i may not move back to the states like i want to.
naaaah. i’ll be back one way or the other, BECAUSE I LOVE MY COUNTRY.

I will pay her flight in full if she also promises to shut up while shes at it
Rbastid on May 30, 2008 at 1:17 AM
Don’t let the door hit you on the way out. I am still waiting for those who said that they would leave if W were elected and then again re-elected to leave …. Talk is cheap. ..

Can we get her promise in writing? And will we get a two-fer, getting rid of her equally vacuous hard-left fascist husband?

You’ll be sadly missed, Susan. /sarcasm
I hope your fellow Hollywood libs don’t get the same idea. /more sarcasm
I hear Cuba is lovely in November.

This is so cool
What does ‘checking out’ mean?
Canada would be a good start, since they are flirting with sharia
Italy would be ok too. The Pope lives there
China would be cool. She could lobby for Tibet

Susan Sarandon can go join the boat load of other Hollywood types who fled after GWB was elected.
Oh wait, maybe they were acting.

I thought she “checked out” years ago.

Good riddance to bad trash.

“Girl, don’t go away mad…girl, just go away.”

Can’t say this is a surprise. How many want to bet she doesn’t follow through with her threat? Hmm? At least she didn’t threaten to stomp her feet and hold her breath until she turned blue. I mean, that would only be slightly *less* mature right?
DakRoland on May 30, 2008 at 8:59 AM
Please God…….let him lose….
kcd on May 30, 2008 at 9:19 AM
good riddance.
ctmom on May 30, 2008 at 9:21 AM
Does she think she will be missed? What an ego trip.

I thought that France was the liberal’s favorite refuge. Way to go Sarko!
mushmouth on May 30, 2008 at 10:03 AM
Get the hell out of my country you ungrateful useful idiot. Take Alec Baldwin and Barbra S. with you. Move to England. Those women over there will be in burkas before long anyway.
Call the movers, start packing and GOOD RIDDANCE!!!!!!!
Liberals are truly morons.

Buh-bye! Will you be taking your giant taxable assets with you or leaving them at customs? You detritus spewing wench.
Western_Civ on May 30, 2008 at 10:55 AM
I know it has already been said but,”DON’T LET THE DOOR HIT YOU IN THE ASS ON THE WAY OUT”. Oh, and be sure to take your idiot TIM ROBBINS with you…
pueblo1032 on May 30, 2008 at 11:42 AM
You promise and promise but never follow through.
srhoades on May 30, 2008 at 12:23 PM
Goodbye and good riddance…take some of your wacko friends with you too, would you???
rtsidedragon on May 30, 2008 at 12:58 PM
Please do and don’t let the door slam you in the back as you go, Ms. Sarandon. You are no great loss to the nation despite your over inflated ego.
{^_^}
herself on May 30, 2008 at 1:08 PM
Will she take her chins with her?
How about that assbag that she carries around, Mr. Robbins?
Spartacus on May 30, 2008 at 1:10 PM
Damn it Janet - Pack your bags.
Kini on May 30, 2008 at 1:18 PM
Another reason to vote for McCain…
CliffHanger on May 30, 2008 at 1:34 PM
I wish just one time these idiots would actually do what they say they are going to do. I can only hope that she really means it this time.
