John Wayne was a man of his times. If he was born 75 years later, he would think differently. Let's enjoy his movies and leave his politics and personal views behind.

It appears everyone has "decades-old" stuff that can "resurface" (bold mine) :




More "for you but not for me" twaddle.

Sad, because in the past we were a nation of free speech. Not so much nowadays ...

A defiant Tucker Carlson refused again Monday night to apologize for his comments about women and child rape that emerged Sunday night on social media.

Minutes later, Media Matters, a self-described "progressive media watchdog," that published the clips and transcripts, dropped a second batch of audio offerings in which Carlson can be heard making racist and xenophobic remarks about Iraq, Afghanistan Muslims, the Obamas and immigrants.

"We've always apologized when we're wrong and will continue to do that," Carlson said while addressing the clips released Sunday, adding that the leftist "mob" attacks free speech and demands conformity to political correctness. "That's what decent people do; they apologize. But we will never bow to the mob."

Tucker is part of the mob.

News is no longer news, they should all just go under two names "Dirty Laundry Daily Left" or Dirty Laundry Daily Right"

It is simply a continuing expose of who these people really are behind the scenes,

each side denigrates the other for a time, until the next news cycle brings fresh victims.

I did not click the link. I dont need to. I probably read at least part of the interview at one time anyway.
Like a previous poster said, in so many words - different time, different world.

Some if what ge said was ignorant and biased, we get it.

Still...
Modern day liberals just need to deal with it as best as they possibly can. Hopefully they won't need to.many therapy sessions or time outs in their safe spaces.

He's dead and gone. What are ya gonna do? Beat him down another 6ft?

Could always exhume him and burn the remains if that would keep yer happy.

Yeah! 50 years go I said poop a lot. now I almost never say it!!

Yep, Michael Jackson too...

Rio Bravo comes to mind.

Good one.
