The Hill Street Blahg

George Carlin, one of the true great ones, passed away yesterday in LA, he was 71. Carlin had a special talent for revealing and bringing to light the hypocrisies and idiocy of today’s society and our government’s inability to get things done correctly. Whoever coined the phrase “there is truth in mirth” knew what they were talking about and it certainly pertained to the hard living Carlin. The very liberal Carlin will be missed by this very conservative blogger. Let’s hope he wasn’t disappointed when he arrived for his final show and met the creator who blessed him with his talent. George was a non-believer as many enlightened progressives are.

In the video segment below, Carlin comes off a tad conservative as he touts his comical cynicism towards the clueless politicians who run our dysfunctional government, who in turn control our supposed meaningless lives. The language is strong…but that was just part of George Carlin’s shtick.
