Lenny Bruce had the same criticism of the Left.
Here's the trend: It's been chic for a long time for liberals to identify with Stevenson and hate Nixon, for example. But how liberal are they if they can't be liberal with Nixon? Truth comes to all of us at different degrees and levels; those we love and those we hate are actually a part of us. Every reader knows, if he searches his soul, that he is part McCarthy, part Stevenson, part Krushchev, every antithesis combined. And, knowing this, you will hate sometimes. I will hate, have hated, and will continue hating. But I have come to the realization that I am certainly not superior to those I hate.The Violent Liberals by Lenny Bruce (collected in The Almost Unpublished Lenny Bruce)[ snip ]
To tie it up, has Eisenhower and his Administration been corrupt? No. Has Eisenhower and his Administration purposely done damage to the country? No. Eisenhower and Administration are not mean, corrupt men - they are merely inadequate men who have proven their lack of leadership by popularizing the phrase "Yankee Go Home!"
John Wayne is on AMC right now in the “The Quiet Man”, one of my all time favorites!
Happy Birthday John Wayne. We miss you Friend.
I dont go to the theater any more. There is nothing worth seeing.
Watching Tom Cruise a 5’6” Simpleton try to play a hero just doesnt get it for me.
Where is John Wayne? He is on a couple of different movie channels on cable this week!!! Have had most all his greats on there. “In Harms Way” is one of my all time faves. “Quiet Man” is on right now.
John Wayne movies, not Michael Moore and global warming movies, are what we should show to kids in school. The virtues of masculinity, toughness, loyalty and love of one’s country are ALL verboten these days. Unbelievable.
Tomorrow is the most important thing in life. Comes into us at midnight very clean. It’s perfect when it arrives and it puts itself in our hands. It hopes we’ve learned something from yesterday. John Wayne
The Duke was given the name Marion Robert Morrison when he was born, but his middle name was changed to Michael when he was 5 years old, when his brother Robert was born.
He made too many great movies to have just one favorite, but I like The Searchers so much I named my son Ethan.
John Wayne is the reason I registered as a Republican as an 18 year old kid. He’s never steered my wrong. He was a truly great American.

His kind will never pass our way again, but God I wish someone like him would.
John Wayne was born in 1907? Holy smokes I’ve always thought he was born in the 1920s.
