I love to this day his TV signoff, “America: You Ask Me Why I Love Her?”
The Duke is missed. To this day.

I saw The Alamo yesterday. The statements of faith in God that were proclaimed during that movie are amazing considering how most anything remotely ‘religious’ is treated in this day and age. A big theme, if not The theme of ‘The Alamo’is that freedom and liberty aren’t ‘free’ and there are those who pay the ultimate price for everyone ...... a message that’s still very true today.

I remember the Richard Pryor routine that talked about even death being scared of John Wayne, and then he imitated him saying “Get the f-— out of here, Death!”

Lung cancer has killed My three favorite people in the world: John Wayne, Walt Disney and My mom. All three had a lot more to give, and were gone before they should have.

A man from a time when Hollyweird portrayed America as a nation that tamed the West and kicked the crap out of our foreign enemies. Nationalism died when those types of movies stopped being made. Just my opinion...
To: JRios1968
superb...I would like to know who created this and I want to see it up on some billboards...hillarious
