Ron Paul On the Morton Downey Show: 1988

[rosco rathbone]

What happened in this country over the last 25 years? Ron Paul sticks up for weed legalization and Mort abuses him while the crowd roars for blood and Lisa Sliwa jiggles 80s-riffically.

Mort was the voice of the no-nonsense, common-sense, cut-the-bullshit populous--the working folks riding the subway with dope fiends and warriors-come-out-to-play type hoodlums. That same audience would be cheering Ron Paul now. I find it all most peculiar.

Kinda like Bush Jr becoming a war here for his Guard service and Kerry becoming a traitor for his Vietnam combat experience.

I had a goth friend in high school who had a huge sexual crush on Morton Downey. We'd go to her house after school and watch taped episodes of his show while I ate chips and she went off about how hot he was. It was weird in retrospect.

What a fucked up television show.

In my advanced age- I say, "God bless Daddy issues!"

Your right in that neither Bush or Kerry actually did what was claimed on a piece of paper...

Other than Kerry being a war hero and bush being a priviledged and doped up failure, YOU'RE absolutely correct.
