They are comin' for Lennon now, those revisionist m-f-ers

and it bothers me to the point that I need to vent about it here.

1. Care to elaborate?

Just so we know to what you are referring. Thanks.

4. Oh I get it

Picking Lennon's dusty bones once again. Yep, I think I can miss this one.

2. It's one guy, trying to sell a book. I'm not seeing the

conspiracy.

5. Agree. There's no "they're coming for" about it. Hardly anybody

will be aware of this crap, and it won't make a difference to those who are fans. :eyes:

6. Right. We all know that swift-boating has no affect on the masses.

7. I hardly think the audience for a rock legend matches the

audience for a presidential candidate, and in fact it didn't change very many minds. Those who were for Kerry voted for him and ignored the crap.

But go ahead - raise your blood pressure over this. If it gets more than a blip, I'll sincerely apologize and admit I'm wrong.

13. I doubt it will become legend in itself, or become very widely

known. Righties are gleeful about anything like this (as we are about any jab at their icons), but I still don't think it'll go further.

Even if they nod to it on the news, it won't affect those who are fans -- don't you agree? Let the Righties revel in this, it'll die down fast and really, who cares what they think? They reveled in the Obama birther crap. They're stupid and irrelevant and not worth our attention or concern. Seriously, don't feel bad and don't worry. :hug:

the day before he was killed, you would be hard pressed to believe what this "aide" had to say....

10. Boy, I wouldn't want Yoko on my ass.

If it comes to it I have faith she will pull rank on them.

12. It stands to reason

That's why that librul J. Edgar Hoover of that Communist front group had a dossier on Lennon a foot thick. I'm sure you remember all the liberals burning Beatles albums, and inveighing against them from pulpits all over America during the 1960s. When they re-do Mount Rushmore to get rid of that fucking Jefferson (and Roosevelt, too), they should put John Lennon right next to Ronnie.

15. They did the same to MLK, Jr. and Malcolm X, asserting that they would be Republicans

were they still alive.

16. Recommended.

His "former assistant" is a crook, who ripped off the Lennons. Why anyone would listen to him is beyond me.

I do note that, on the OP/thread in question, some people are trashing John. Sad.

I also note that my "recommend" did not show up; hence, the trashers must be out in force.
