Don't know what he was like personally, but Walt Disney was a VERY right-wing conservative of the type that used to dominate Orange County politics. Same with his friend and next-door amusement park neighbor Walter Knott of the wonderful Knott's Berry Farm.
I always understood him to be a decent and religious guy. I always liked him.
Of course, since he's been dead 40 years one can make up anything about him with impunity.
