Jeff Foxworthy campaigns for Mitt Romney in the South
The State Column | Wednesday, March 14, 2012

Playing on the theme of his popular game show, “Are you Smarter than a Fifth Grader?” Mr. Foxworthy asked the crowd, “If you spend more money every year than you take in, is that good for the economy?” The crowd gave a resounding, “No!”

“Even fifth graders could figure that one out,” said Mr. Foxworthy.

In Alabama, Mr. Foxworth poked fun at Governor Romney’s hunting skills, comparing them to those of Dick Cheney, USA Today reports. Governor Romney joked to Mr. Foxworth, saying the he hoped Foxworth would be able to show him “which end of the rifle to point.” Mr. Foxworth replied: “That sounds pretty dangerous if you ask me. We may start with a BB gun and work our way up to a rifle.”

At his Mississippi appearance, however, Mr. Foxworthy did not shy away from poking fun at Mr. Romney’s wealth: “He’s like a regular guy and I’m thinking why would you even do this? I’d be on a yacht somewhere if I had your money.”

2. If YOU vote for Mitt Romney, you MIGHT be an idiot!

His signature line is all he has going for him. He hasn't changed his material in ages.

3. When Bush doubled the national debt, Jeff Foxworthy was under Bush's desk (proverbially speaking).

4. A former IBM engineer - I always thought he was pretty funny, one joke yes but funny

I saw one part of his act where he said something rather hilarious"

(in drunken early 20's talk) "Officer Johnson...I thought you said that you didn't want to come back out here tonight!!?!!"



he knows who to deliver a joke. The Mitt thing is not surprising - he also knows his audience.

5. If you recycle the same boring stereotype-based jokes decade after decade

you might be Jeff Foxworthy.

6. Iam sad he is a republican support. However I still like him. Can't help I think he is

7. My comedy preferences tend to go more to George Carlin, Bill Hicks, or Stewart & Colbert.

Foxworthy just didn't match up.

And Gallagher? Jesus Christ, he's gone fundie right-wing batshit. You seen his routines lately?

11. If you start two wars while also lowering taxes...

is that good for the economy?

Oh wait, a republican did that so its sound economics.
