George Carlin explains today's America in three minutes

[Cyrano]

I never get tired of watching this.

I know this Carlin video has been posted here before, but my guess is that many DUers have still not seen it. So prepare yourself for a treat. How many people can explain how screwed up America is, and why? George Carlin does it in just three minutes. If you haven't seen it, enjoy.

1. Never gets old for me either

We miss ya George!

2. Actually he explains it in one sentence:

"The rich make all the money, pay none of the taxes. The middle class pays all the taxes, does all the work. And the poor are there, just to scare the shit out of the middle class. Keep them showing up at those jobs!!!"

3. Bears repeating!

Carlin's words there should be put to music and made into the new National Anthem.

Truth is truth, and damn, it keeps getting truthier.

4. He used to keep my spirits up. He let me know there are sane people in the world that

call the BS for what it is ... we need lots of George Carlin's. They seem a rare breed.

5. Carlin was the best. I wonder how long it will be before

the crazies running America will declare it a crime to watch a Carlin video?

7. My friends and I used to call him the Reverend George Carlin

...because he spoke so much unpleasant truth, like preachers are supposed to.

It'll be a while before we see another like him I'll bet. :(

8. Yeah, I'm afraid he was one of a kind.
