Yes, I did make it up. No applause please...just send money. ;o)
Yes indeed re: that generation. That’s ok re: getting your mom to talk to some of my dear Dem siblings....I would not want to trouble her.
I am just glad to know some Dems will be voting repub this fall - it’s a trend I will be hoping spreads.
Scuse me but I could not let your comment pass without my comment. The Hollywood crowd in WWII did much more than sell war bonds and entertain. Most men signed up and served in combat. John Wayne dodged the draft and made great movies while other actors were dying in defense of their country.
Grow up.

I don’t know how Wayne dodged the draft, but it was something that plagued him throughout his assoication with Director John Ford. Ford never let him forget it. I’d be interested in knowing why/how Wayne did not enlist like his friend Jimmy Stewart. But even still, Wayne with his larger than life legend has yet to be successfully burned by liberal Hollywood. I’ll take my John Wayne over Alec Baldwin anyday.
Next a.m. funny comment. Curtis on WABC said Obama woke up and found Bill Richardson’s head in his bed... then they told to get dressed cause they had to go to Vegas, they wanted him to work with Moe Greene... and when he got back they’d go fishing.
He also said Biden was no Sonny Corleone last night and Obama had to come out and save him; Afterwhich he went into his speech ala ‘The Rock’.
Now you have done it Carmela, I’m off with the uncontrollable laughter again!
” Excellent! You should have seen him make mincemeat of Shannon O’Brien in the gubernatorial debates! What state do you reside?
Enjoy the show tonight!”
Florida.

Thanks!!! I thought it was pretty good myself....however, you evidently are the only one out there to recognize my
brilliance.....LOL!!
The greatest among us frequently go unrecognized. LOL
These live threads move so fast that tons of posts get missed. I can't even imagine what tonight is going to be like!
LOL!! Very cute!
Actually, Jimmy’s best friend was Henry Fonda. They never talked politics. LOL I was merely commenting that actors in that era did go into combat and that John Wayne shouldn’t be idolized for acting in war movies.

Oh you are absolutely right and I think Ford enjoyed poking Wayne in the eye with that fact. Well ya up for the Messiah’s speech tonight? I don’t know if I’ll be able to look past the bright light surrounding his head.
I wonder if they made a small lake for him to walk upon the waters?
LOL!!
Thanks, I needed that!
