It's stuff like this that makes me wish I'd been born 40-50 years earlier.

And I didn’t think I could love Clark Gable any more than I already do!

I read Bob Hope’s autobiography ‘Don’t shoot, it’s only me’. He was an amazing man who made a difference to many lives and it seemed like Hollywood shrugged at his passing.

Hope did slightly more than going on ‘rotating fasts’ like Glover or Sarandon; but each according to their abilities.

Just more proof that I was born in the wrong era.

I really needed to see, and hear, the true patriots of that time.

Thanks for that.

That was a treat…looking at those guys and dolls while listening to Dino croon was a nice way to end the day.

My father was a lonely West Virginia boy, stationed at Mojave Air Base during WW2. To this day, he speaks fondly of Bing Crosby. Almost as if Bing was family.

Bing used to come out often to the NCO club. He’d sip a beer or two with the soldiers and sing along with the piano player. That meant the world to a those boys.

Titov, you should know that I was picking World Trade Center out of my hair and coughing more up for days following the attack, so I may be biased. Explain why we were fighting Al Quaeda in Iraq if there is no nexis with Afghanistan. They came rushing in to fill the void when Saddam was deposed. Every think that might have been the plan? Take the fight to the enemy and keep them occupied in the region while at the same time taking down an psychotic despot in the bargain?

No one has questioned why we went after Germany when we were attacked by Japan? Hitler had been no direct threat to the US! Why is going into 2 countries in the same region such a big stretch for everyone?

Pam, so if proposing war bonds would be a dumb idea, just how EXACTLY are we paying for this war? If we object to deficit spending for domestic purposes, then why exactly is acceptable to finance a full-scale war with huge loans from China? Or is fiscal conservatism merely a situational thing?

On the Turner Classic Movie side of Free Movies on Demand, Time Warner. During the introduction for “The Fighting Seabees” Ben Mankiewicz, who I like as a host on TCM makes this statement.

“Now there’s a lot of nonsense talk today about Hollywood being an unpatriotic place. But a big part of this film’s job is its unabashed patriotic point of view.”

Hollywood being patriotic during the 1940’s has what to do with today?
