Just started watching Archie's Bunker's Place and laughing at Archie's rant about Democrats

[fbj]

Season 1 of Archie Bunkers Place and rant is below

"Democrats way of ruining this country is telling us how we all are supposed to make sacrifices. The democrats are really great on that stuff. They will have us over the hill to the poor house and we wont be able to drive over there because we wont have no gas and will have to walk. This whole thing with the Energy Crisis is a conspiracy. For years they been telling us to go out and buy stuff like all the electronics such as toasters, tv's and radios. Then after all the big corporations made billions of dollars of profits things change. After telling us for years that we can't live without this stuff, now they are telling us we got to live without it. The country is going straight into the dumper."

Not surprising they made him that way, the creator and producers of the show were all flaming democrats. Rob Reiner, Sally Struthers were far left loonies of the day.

Democrats showed their partisan bigotry well.

Apparently, his writers weren't and were far more intelligent than todays lib writers. Hard to be right even decades laters.

We laughed at him, until we didn't. It was "cool" at that time.

Norman Lear was the puppet master. When it was "All in the Family" he gave the best lines to the meat head character.

They were good back in the 60's and 70's because it was part of the media evolution and it gave us something a little different from the dramas. Now its just a bit of nostalgia to go back and see them once in a while, but I could never really be into it anymore
