Rightardia comment: We first saw Austan Goolsbee on Comedy Central on the Daily Show and were impressed. Like Obama, Goolsbee in another professor from the University of Chicago.
White House economic adviser Austan Goolsbee won first prize in the 16th annual "D.C.'s Funniest Celebrity" contest. In his performance he spoke about the Obama administration's goals and recent battles filled with biting, funny asides:
"I've talked to some of the leading CEOs at banks, and I do think that they learned some important lessons from what just happened...Like spend your bonus quickly."
Goolsbee hit all the usual topics: health care reform, the 2012 election, and of course, Sarah Palin.
"There's a lot of governors..." Goolsbee mused. "There's obviously Sarah Palin (wingnut) from Alaska, who's the former Governor (quitter) and you just cannot rule out that by 2012 (there may be a warrant for her arrest)..."
In closing, Goolsbee cautioned the audience, "Have some sympathy for the unemployed because, when Rahm Emanuel sees my comments from this evening, I am going to be one of them."
