But, who’s gonna tell the crackers to love AARP and Obamacare?
Oh well, more cost savings for the ACA.
I long ago stopped caring about what an actor says about politics and life in general, most live in a fantasy world. If I enjoy the characters they play I watch the shows. I still watch Andy Griffin to remember a better time, “No Time for Sergeants” is a classic. For all the entertainment he has given me over the years, God bless him and his family and while he rests in Gods arms, he still lives as Andy to me.
The Andy Griffith Show was a gift to us all. It never stops giving.
Nobody’s perfect.
RIP
I saw him in No Time for Sargents live on stage back in the day. It was so funny. Politics aside RIP!
That is one of the funniest movies I’ve ever seen.

I can’t go into a large restroom - even with the stalls - and not smile and think about those toilet seats ‘saluting’ the Col during head inspection.
He was also great in “A Face in the Crowd” - which the 1st time I saw WJC that movie came to mind, now we have another one with BO.... with the main constant being the “SHEEPLE” never change...promise them anything etc etc
Don’t forget that Griffith was big time in the tank for obamadoesn’tCare. He did many many advertisements for the
nightmare that has been forced on us regular people of “Mayberry” USA. The show had a very kind humor—not the vicious crap the MSM puts out (2.5 Men etc.).
Rodney Dillard of the Dillards band (the “Darlings” of the Griffith Show fame) put out an album “I Wish Life Was Like Mayberry”. The album points out, rather poignantly, how far the small town person and caring and values have disappeared across the country. Those people are “fly over” country for the Statists, you know.
How ironic Griffith carried water for obama and the liberal Statist agenda— which would never allow small town values, religion, and morals to enter into the discussion of the limits of Statist government.
Assumes facts not in evidence.
I could care less what people who spend there life pretending to being someone else think or do.
How much less could you care?
I assume the best in people, God could care less about his politics.
IIRC, I had it as a 45RPM single, with Bill Dana as "Jose' Jiminez, 'The Astronaut'" on the flip side.
To me, Griffith represented good, clean comedy...
“Griffith, 86, died Tuesday at his coastal home, Dare County Sheriff Doug Doughtie said in a statement.
“Mr. Griffith passed away this morning at his home peacefully and has been laid to rest on his beloved Roanoke Island,” Doughtie told The Associated Press, reading from a family statement.”
WTF??? Buried on the same day he died?
I read somewhere that only 5-6 hours elapsed.
