He’s got that right. Three ring circuses, comedy acts, and liars on parade.

Or if he was saying this in 2015, he would have made it big as a talkradio show host.

Just a gentle reminder that post number 17 is from a TROLL and the RESPONSE is NO RESPONSE. Please DO NOT FEED the TROLL. Thank-you! :)

While I understand your irritation with him, because he really WAS mean to you, Humblegunner is not technically a "troll." He's a member in good standing of the (quasi-)STASI blog police here on Free Republic. He has been repeatedly photographed with JimRob and firearms. Soooo... Well, I'm just sayin'... Humblegunner is one of the smarter guys here.

Jackie Mason is very much alive...he's 84 and a fervent Republican, bless his heart.

His stand-up comedy gave me many a hearty laugh in the olden days....which is more than I can say about today's crop of "comedians".
