Well Pilgrim, someone oughta bust you in the mouth.
Now just change that to “the low-information voter” instead, and we HAVE A WINNER!
GOP blew it but the Tea Party is re-energized and many people are thinking beyond the hapless and duplicitous GOP. That’s the silver lining in the cloud.
The America I grew up in is long gone and my descendants will never get to experience the things we did.
John Wayne westerns are some of my favorites IMO. Didnt start watching them until a few years ago.
I loved the Duke growing up. Our “Duke” now is Clint Eastwood. I always wondered how these two never made a movie together. If they did, I can’t think of it.
By and by, I could see the Duke interviewing an empty chair at the Republican national convention and it representing Jimma Carter, just like Clint did in 2012...
This is so good that I’m going to burn this on a CD clip:

No wonder the Duke and Reagan were such close friends!

Pithy!
Well ahhhh think I’m-a-gonna wrassle me a grizzly, an’ kiss me a purty gal
One of my favorite John Wayne stories is from an interview I heard on Moody radio (WMBI) years ago of a husband and wife team writing about Jewish life in 1930’s Germany. They had this private conversation with the Duke and were asking him whether they should even take on the project. His response was classic, “Well, you’ve got to. It’s the Jewish Alamo.” They then asked him if he thought people would get the point of what they were trying to say, and he came up with this little gem, “You can tell people anything you like, as long as you tell them in a story.” So true. And so John Wayne.
