My goodness, Jerry Falwell has returned from the dead and is giving us a visit here at T-Nation!
Goodnight, sweet comedian ;_;
Didn’t care for Carlin that much, but respected him, and it’s always sad when a legend passes.

Look at what you’ve DONE…
Shit
Piss
Fuck
Cunt
Cocksucker
Motherfucker
and
Tits…
It does have a certain lyricism to it actually…
especially when he would kind of hiss the last word…
The Mose Allison of Comedy…
There’s a legacy for ya’…Nuff-Said’…
Calling Carlin a liberal… is just wrong. Just wrong.

No. Not really. He was clearly antiwar but that is not a liberal position. In general he was anti-institution.

Exactly. Which many would argue is the exact opposite of liberal.
He pointed out all the little uses of words and language that we take for granted. Retarded, stupid uses and over blown, fancy uses.
He is probably the LEAST PC comedian ever. That includes guys like Pryor.
He thinks the government should go fuck itself in general.
How the hell, in any way shape or form, is he liberal? At all? Name one line. Any line. Any piece of liberal commentary coming from his mouth.

Carlin was a comic god… Well now he’s dead hopefully God indeed has a good sense of humor… for his sake.

Like most of his fellow “radical liberals” he didn’t believe in God.[/quote]
Catholicism has a tendency to do that to people…

He was anti business, anti war (all wars) anti capitalism except when it came to his outrageous fees. He was even left of Obama…[/quote]
Firstly, you don’t know if he was against all wars. Secondly, he was not anti business out of hand. He had issues with big business getting handouts from big-brother so they can screw over “the little people”.
The man claimed to stay home and masturbate on election day…that falls outside of any political spectrum.
