You don’t remember those bigoted songs The Rat Pack did?

Well he is facing his judgement now so it doesn’t matter what happens here, does it?

He was a jerk.

I thought that was Steve Martin.

While post-death exposing of an individual can be criticized, I think there is more going on here. DECLAS of the rampant hollyweird satanic pedophilia, not possible in a serious way perhaps till now, by exposing the perpetrators en-masse. I believe the same of Bob Saget, when circumstances around his death was news about 2 weeks ago.

No. My disdain for Jerry Lewis goes back a long ways. It’s sad really what happened to him. Complete jerk.

I have no idea if Lewis did these things he is accused of but I would not be surprised if did them. How he treated Gary Lewis was especially pathetic.

I thought the Lewis/Martin act was pretty funny. But I never thought Jerry Lewis solo was very funny.

Dean Martin was the class guy.

I’ve watched quite a few interviews with Jerry. Professionally he appeared to have a code and if you fell on the wrong side you were toast. He was also generous with high praise of those he admired.

Jerry Lewis was straight? Who knew? I never thought “the king of comedy” was remotely funny, but what do I know?

That is true, he also hated partying. He was off screen pretty much a homebody, his only real outlet was golf.

These people didn’t have the balls to attack him while he was alive.. any accusations now are just chicken-sh*t.

Sinatra got them back together on the Jerry Lewis Telethon in the late ‘70s. They were cordial after that.

I get the impression that they just got sick of each other, probably more on Dean’s part.

"so does everything he did with his telethons now get erased and put in the dumpster"

I can't speak to these accusations because this is the first I've heard of them.

I never liked him and never thought his cross-eye, mumble-mouth persona was funny or even mildly amusing.

Jerry Lewis was a reprehensible person.

He abandoned his first family leaving them no financial support. He disowned a son because he married a non-jew. He flat-out told his first wife while he was on the road he would screw any woman he wanted.

I saw an interview at the time of his death with his illegitimate daughter (looks just like him). He refused to ever acknowledge her; she was homeless and he left her nothing.

On the Carson show he joked that he waited to use the bathroom to take a dump until the plane was flying over middle America (or the south specifically).

He mercilessly sued and crushed anyone who he believed slighted him.

After Lewis and Martin broke-up, Martin opened a restaurant. Lewis opened an identical restaurant across the street and hired Martin's head chef.

I suspect no one has ever done a bio-pick on him because even after his death people are still afraid of him.

So accuse him when he was alive - it’s not like Jerry Lewis had the power to destroy anyone’s career after the mid-60s.

Sinatra ambushed him live on stage. Lewis had to go through the motions. Lewis hated Martin for ending the act.

I went to Vegas in 1996 and he took pictures of my butt.

That’a what you get going into a Sizzlers All You Can Eat in a butt thong!

Read Nick Tosches' "Dino: Living High in the Dirty Business of Dreams."

He was a drinker and even more of one after his son died.
