One show from the 80's, he mentioned in his monologue that two men got married on TV(Phil Donohue show).He said one of the men was wearing a dress. Johnny sounded really distressed and upset about it. Johhny said "What the hell is happening in this country?" Say that today and you will be cancelled before the end of the show.ampersandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17145013352755061465noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-717986195212622043.post-4796543976409544622017-07-27T15:59:58.635-04:002017-07-27T15:59:58.635-04:00The celebration of decadence and deviancy is alway...The celebration of decadence and deviancy is always at the heart of a destruction of a society.

By my 20th high school reunion at least one of our classmates had decided to lop off his junk and become a girl. I have met two other dudes who have done the same thing, one has since died and the other is well known.<br /><br />So the idea has been around for a long time, but now, due to the degenerate and degraded nature of our society we now must celebrate insane deviancy.

It was called segregation. People lived separate lives. They did it in Ancient Greece in Sparta. They did it in Ancient Rome with the plebes and the patricians. They did it in the middle ages with the serfs and the nobility. That is how human society always devolves. Until there is a revolution to upend the status quo and the elites are overturned.

But he could have served in the Navy or Air Force base where he didn't have to walk 20 miles with a 60 lbs. pack. James Stewart only got in because he went on crash eating programme and gained enough weight. JFK had a bad back and had his doctor lie about it.
