Give me liberty
(a paycheck will do)
George Lopez can shovel it out, but when the sh** comes back his end, he can't take it!
The jovial talk-show host - who just got kicked back to the witching hour (the dead zone) to accommodate Conan O'Brien's new gab fest on TBS in the fall - was angry about the insinuation that he was snubbed like CoCo a scant few weeks ago.
So much so, in fact, that he retorted into camera on one nightly tabloid news show:
"I wasn't Leno'd!"
Wasn't he?
The facts have obviously slipped the rotund stand-up-comic's memory - or he's a little slow - on the uptake.
When NBC shuffled their schedule to slot Jay Leno back into his comfortable nook at 11:30 pm - they first approached Conan - with the offer to slide back into the midnight hour.
After due consideration, if you recall, O'Brien turned the peacock network execs down flat.
Georgie boy elected to kow-tow and accepted the slight with a gracious response.
"Sure, boss!"
Whether George likes the comparison, or not, he was Leno'd!
Pride is a terrible thing, George!
