Like Rush says, a conservative is just a Liberal who go mugged, and Mr. Lennon certainly got mugged.
Perhaps he started to grow up near the end of his life.
You say you'll change the constitution
Well, you know
We all want to change your head
You tell me it's the institution
Well, you know
You better free you mind instead
But if you go carrying pictures of chairman Mao
You ain't going to make it with anyone anyhow
Don't you know it's gonna be all right
John Lennon’s Born-Again Phase
“Can He love me?” the former Beatle asked Oral Roberts. “I want out of hell.”

This doesn’t surprise me in the least.
The man was a shrewd observer of human nature, he was nobody’s fool, he shot from the hip, and he didn’t do “groupthink.”
All those characteristics plus the fact that he was an incredibly intelligent person all lead toward conservatism.
I have told people for years that I thought if Lennon hadn’t died so early, he would be a conservative.

Imagine all the liberals, reading this in disbelief. Imagine all the denial swirling as they sleep. Imagine all the haters saying they are love. Oh oh oh oh They say he was a liberal. He really was a conservative. They say he was a hippie. Behind close doors he was eating them up leaving them only with their rib. They say he was a liberal. He was really a conservative.
Maybe that’s why Yoko wanted him bumped off.

Uh, isn’t that why Mark Chapman shot him?
Well, there were many Democrats who were sour toward Carter at the time, so it’s not surprising if Lennon would have been another one.
He met Reagan in the booth on Monday Night Football. Both were at the game and were being interviewed by Howard Cosell. It was surreal!
Let’s face it, being married to Yoko Ono would turn anybody.
