Over the past ten years of his life, the cranky icon’s reputation soured slightly as he was forced to apologize for making a gay slur on camera during the 2007 telethon, continued to make racist and misogynistic jokes into his ’90s, and didn’t hesitate to share his right-wing political views.

It's nice to know that liberal moonbats aren't afraid to bully senior citizens to make themselves feel better about themselves.

A man from the golden age of Hollywood.

When the movies was full of people youngsters could genuinely look up to as role models. Gregory Peck, John Wayne, Ronald Reagan, Charlton Heston and more.

We shall not see their likes again

If the investigations into election fraud had not taken place, would Jerry have been made into a Democrat voter now?

His prime was before I was born so I mostly knew him from the Labor Day telethons when I was a kid, but he did some great work for kids with those. RIP.

R.I.P. Jerry

When I was young I used to watch the Dean Martin and Jerry Lewis show. I used to laugh until my belly ached.

He was one of the finest .

I never tired of his movies. I still watch them every chance I get.

I liked the Crosby and Hope movies but loved the Lewis and Martin movies.
Can not really compare them, apples and oranges.

Mr Lewis, you made us laugh and forget our own troubles, what a wonderful gift you had.

Rest in Peace Jerry, The Kid will live forever.

My mother adored him and I took her to see him in Las Vegas. One of my happy memories. I loved his work after the Martin and Lewis movies. The earlier ones seemed too humiliating for his character. Really appreciated his telethon work. He seemed to care deeply for the kids his charity work supported, and put a lot of himself into it for them rather than for himself. I am so sorry he’s gone. There are so few greats left from my childhood.

You know telling jokes about gay people are women are just that.....jokes. Jokes about men and straight people are also just jokes. I laugh at them all because they are just.....jokes. I was always told that if you couldn’t laugh at yourself....you didn’t know how to enjoy life.

We all have idiosyncrasies and tendencies and mannerisms that are funny. NFL football fans are funny. So are NASCAR fans and Opera fans. Have you ever seen a crowd at a WNBA game or an LPGA event?.....a lot of lesbians....which is funny of you let it be.

The liberals take everything so serious. Having a liberal around is about as much fun as having a cop following you on the freeway. You just with they would go away even though you’re doing nothing wrong.

This country is never going to be ‘normal’ again until the liberals learn how to laugh.

I NEVER thought this fool was funny. Ever. Even when I was 12 years old I thought his stuff was stupid. And I personally don’t know anyone who thought he was funny either. That the French think this moron was a comedic genius says WAY more about the French than it does Lewis.

Well according to “Aunt Teefuh” of boston, he was a white supremacist POS bigot who should be swept into the dust bin. Scroll down if you wish to see their crap:

You can also see some of the negative comments to them if you like.

P.S. Certainly none of the money he raised over the years for MD went to black kids. NOT
