Red Skelton was one of the funniest comedians ever, and he never said anything dirty, unlike the present crop of comedians.

Lamh Foistenach Abu!

As I said, they don’t make comedians like Red Skelton anymore.

One can be funny without being course or dirty. Unfortunately, clean comedy is getting to be a lost art.

Gone are the likes of Red Skelton, Bob Hope and even the wit of Groucho Marx.

You have to curse, tell scatological or sexually explicit jokes to make people laugh today.

Even more rare are actors who truly love what America stands for.

As a child, my family and I watched Red Skelton every week. Those were indeed fun shows.

Years after he had retired, he appeared on the Tonight Show with Johnny Carson. Carson remarked that Skelton looked really good for a man his age and asked if he worked out. “Nah, Skelton said, “about the only exercise I ever get is being pallbearer for my friends who exercised.”
