Burns would be penniless if not for government subsidized PBS bankrolling and showing his documentaries. Like Big Bird, Burns is a PBS welfare queen who doesn’t want his gravy train ended.
Well, Ken, there's 48% of us who pay federal taxes and then there's the rest. That's your idea of "togetherness," to which I say FU!
Then a short breath later: "...a small-town hard-work ethic..."
Libs never understand that once you steal wealth from the achievers, the work-ethic of the entire nation dies. As they used to say in the Soviet Union, "we pretend to work and they pretend to pay us."
Just another rent seeking liberal like Garrison Keillor, maybe not as hypocritical but someone who without PBS we would have never heard of!
Dear Ken: IT’S A WONDERFUL LIFE was fiction. It was make-believe. Just like Obama.
Because you’re an a-hole whose movies I will no longer watch.
Alone? With both house of congress belonging to his party for the first two years?
I guess Ken Burns proves that some serious students of history aren’t really very serious. If he truly believes FDR and Obama saved this country from great depressions, he’s proved his entertaining programs are far more Hollyweird than historical. In fact, Burns is far more a filmmaker than a historian.
The Steward character was always giving up his own dreams and goals.
What a retard.
Burns would like to do a CW II documentary.
If he really cares about small towns and hard working people, why is he voting for a communist who wants to take money and resources away from towns and transfer it to the big cities? He sounds like another liberal who talks out of his ass.
In 10 years, he will be doing a 5 part ‘mini’series’ onthe failings of Obama and the subsequent fallout to USA liberties.
Bet he won’t disclose he voted for him-twice!!!
Pottersville looked a lot like Zero’s Chicago.
Wasn't he the guy who hired an incompetent to handle the funds of the savings and loan, which resulted in the loss of all the liquid assets of the business?
Was this the same George Bailey who makes his living lending money? Didn't Bailey quote the fine print of the account agreement to one of his depositors to delay paying off the account?
Is this the same Bailey who saved the neck of an incompetent druggist who was a threat to everyone in the community?
Is this the same Bailey whose weakness of character led him to commit suicide from a bridge rather than face his problems bravely, leaving a wife and children to fend for themselves?
Have to go back and listen to it... :-)
But thank you for answering
I never realized that ‘delusional’ was spelled, ‘Ken Burns’.
