[lbo-talk] This is WAR, sons!

[R]

believe it or not, mort sahl said pretty much the same thing about ronald
reagan and mort's other right wing contacts, like john wayne.   much of
mort's opinion was the result of his very strong stand that the JFK
assassination needed proper investigating: he was black listed by the
industry (which we all know never uses black lists, right?) and largely
abandoned by his "liberal friends," but not by his pals on the right.
apparently, the only "liberal" who stood by him was merv griffin.  paul
newman turned his back.
