Unfortunately, as a radical leftist, Huey didn’t know how to create wealth beyond stealing it from the rich. No different than today’s Demonrats. His son, fortunately for him, didn’t possess his father’s megalomaniacal tendencies and was more mainstream a pol, and obviously proved supple enough to last 4 decades in the Senate.

As for Fast Eddie, you might recall he gave his first wife, Elaine, (the then-first lady) the consolation prize of Huey’s old Senate seat after Allen Ellender died in 1972. She passed away in 2018.

I was surprised to see his third wife is younger than myself. I can understand wanting to prove your virility, but I feel a bit badly for his son, Eli, who turns just 8 on August 1st and will not have his dad during his key years. A bit selfish on dad’s part. :-(

Partner that is just not accurate

That’s a talk radio trap equating today’s left ism with 30s liberals and Huey long was more than just a liberal he was also an authoritarian when it came to what he wanted for Him

Don’t be a scold I don’t think he raped his wife this is what she wanted I would imagine she is set for life and hopefully she’ll take care of her son we could make the same claim about Donald Trump or anyone that has children over 50 I hate to break it to you but just a few generations ago very few people need their daddy’s or Mommies Passed their teens

I admire his hustle he has more desire for beautiful women at 85 then your average 25-year-old hipster does today and Edwards is another one hard to pigeonhole Louisiana produces these people

None of these people were left just like today’s leftist about transsexualism and tearing down statues not even close

Did you see the tweet yesterday from someone called martyr made up of that summarize what’s going on right now better than anything I’ve seen lately number of people picked it up including national radio even Ben Shapiro whom as you know I don’t like

I do listen to him I’m going to ping Pelham who may know more about Keely than I do I will admit my knowledge of huey is dilettante to some readings and a couple of movies

I am on record here pretty consistently stating that I have more respect for someone like Russell long or Sam nunn or Edwin Edwards then I do your average spineless GOP senator or critter

I prefer they were all Paleos but that’s not going to happen
