Yes, he is a liberal weenie.

But he is right on this. And I applaud him for that.

And I still laugh at his work.

Eric Idle,"I want to be called Loretta, I want to have babies".

John Cleese, "Whaaat!, you can't have babies, Stan".

Hilarious and so relevant to today.

Good that he’s leaving it in. He hates Trump, though. But I hope he hates censorship and liberal scolds more.

Maybe Stan should have been a lumberjack. At least then he could have been a girly just like his dear papa!

It was funny when i saw it the first time, and still funny, and relevant, now.

Cleese should tell them to “sod off”.

“The Life of Brian” is the best of the Python movies, I’ve had copies on VHS, LaserDisc, DVD and now I’ve got a copy sitting on my RAID array. I’m glad the stage show won’t tamper with it - I may even go see this thing.

John Cleese is a liberal. But he’s not a “progressive”. He’s a classical liberal.
There are probably no classical liberals under 50 years of age left.

Be fair, I think he hates every politician.

My neice and her hubby visited us last week. They had never seen “Life of Brian” so I went on Youtube and showed them a few scenes, most notably Biggus Dickus and the stadium scene with Loretta. They agreed that the Loretta scene was 43 years prescient.

Oh, the trans loons have always been around. I knew one at least 30 years ago, totally nuts.

It's just now they've gone mainstream.
