“It always seemed to me that he was a bit of an angry liberal.”

Are there any other types? I think their anger is the result of their refusal to accept reality and their repeated failures at changing it to their vision of utopia.

Every liberal should be given a copy of the serenity prayer.

“Angry Liberal” is redundant.

Will CNN blame Trump for his death and claim there is a Trump body count?

That’s exactly what I thought

I mean he just killed himself in one of Frances coolest old hotels

I loved the 80s when I lived that life pre five kids....a different life

Bourdain had pretty but wacky girlfriend

Great travel experiences I envied

Thin...again I’m envious

Paid very well

You would think he’d bounce out of bed in mornings thinking lucky me

You just never know.....we watched him....my wife loved his show....I’m in Atlanta this was her first text bright and early

I just don’t know what would drive it

Yes his leftist libertarian sorta politics were insufferable but his show was not bad

I just turned sound down when he went hamfisted as he did on my home state

Liberals always think they are better than us and he had that

But what could have driven this

Wasn’t he linked to Harvey Weinstein and Harvey is linked to the Clintons which means all suicides are not a coincidence.

Some truth in that

It’ll be overwhelmed by the everpresent scold cloud here but I agree with you

“Being liberal does drive you mad!”

There’s a lot of truth in that.

Liberal hate that the world isn’t perfect or fair. They live a life of cognitive dissonance because their belief system is in constant contradiction with reality, and they would rather change reality than their beliefs. But reality is rather stubborn, so they end up going nuts.

Johnny is the only conservative Ramon’s

He may be the only survivor too

I knew Joey in passing early 80s

He lived next door to my girlfriends BFF in a bland high rise off the Bowery

And they cheefed together....he was funny

Lady Astor once told Churchill, “Sir if you were my husband I’d poison your tea.”

Churchill replied, “Madam, were I your husband I’d drink it.”

All he did was save what was left of the British Empire, and likely Western Civilization.

Joey was very liberal, it was his idea to do “Bonzo Goes to Bitburg” as a retort to Johnny’s conservatism.

Suicide adds heaps of pain on others. The ultimate selfish act. So sad when people are that mentally ill.
It is also the most preventable death known to man.

Beer summit. If Obama were still resident he would have ordered flags lowered and placed him in a iced buffet line in the rotunda to remeber his past(a).

I heard Brit Hume use that the other night - I looked it up and it’s attributed to several different people worded differently.
