14. Not cool, because it's not the funny Steve Martin

There's likely a personal and professional reason why Steve Martin, the wild and crazy one, mostly keeps his political opinions to himself. It doesn't matter why he does this, just that he has the choice to do so.

This Steve Martin doesn't respect that decision. He should have included a qualifier as to his real identity. Not good.
