Do You Remember "The Duke"?

I came accross this clip in a round about way. While looking over a list of blogs that were awarded the 2011 Zilla Award (check it out), I arrived at The Daily Stink~and this video. You have to listen carefully...it is interesting to hear what The Duke had to say about liberals~so many years back. 

John Wayne, seemed to be a pretty ordinary type of guy. He smoked, he drank, he used "colourful" language, yet somehow he always represented the "down to earth" kind of actor, that seems to be lost in our times. It was always said that he was very much like the characters he played on screen. One bio said that he had a plaque engraved with these words:

Each of us is a mixture of some good and some not so good qualities. In considering one's fellow man it's important to remember the good things...We should refrain from making judgments just because a fella happens to be a dirty, rotten SOB.

As my dear daddy used to say...Forget John Wayne? Never!...You got that right dad!
