George Jefferson was a good man. Served in the Navy. His family was dirt poor but he remembered something his father had said about how expensive dry cleaning was. George took that and with a little money created a business empire all over New York City. He was devoted to his wife "Weezie" and their son Lionel. George Jefferson didn't need the government to "help" him. Didn't need a college degree even. Certainly didn't need affirmative action or the NAACP. He did it all by his own investment, hard work and sacrifice. George Jefferson was the Hank Rearden of the dry cleaning business.
Whatever good life the Jeffersons had, at least THEY earned it.
George Jefferson was all black. Obama is a zebra-stripe baby.
I would appreciate a few real George Jeffersons.
It was a good series.
George was a trip.
