First, Ed Asner played the gruff, but lovable Lou Grant on the Mary Tyler Moore Show. Then he played the gruff, but not so lovable Lou Grant on Lou Grant. Now he plays the old, but stupid Ed Asner.
“Our education has just gone into the toilet in this country,” Asner said to the Washington Post. “Having suffered, from the time of Reagan until now, with onslaughts against government daubing at improving the welfare of American citizens, and the education and health of American citizens, the anti-government forces have struck, perhaps, mortal blows to our society.”
Mary Tyler Moore always said, “Oh, Mr. Grant.” We say, “Oh, shut your pie hole, Mr. Grant.”

Edward Asinine is still alive?
Huh. I thought he was dead.
yeah, an old commie hollyweid left-over.
Commie propaganda.
Didn’t this socialist idiot foreclosed on his mansion sometime last year?
Yes. You mean you didn’t know?
Ed Asner hates spunk. He also hates Americans who work for a living and think that has been Hollywood megalomaniacs are the last people to listen to for political advice.
I picked Ed Asner in Howie Carr’s Death Pool once. Howie said, “No Cheating”. Moi?
The Obozo list. It should be revised and published to make freepers aware of the movie/tv/music choices. Any additions? And yes, Asner is on the list.

His brain is definitely gone. Progressives have ruined the education system. They have run it for at least 20 years. They are a failure.
I thought he was 6 feet under. pity...
It is too bad, that people of his elk, cannot live lives that allow the rest of us to remember them with kindness, and fond memories of their performances. They all feel they have to use their fame to bleat and blather. Babs is a case in point. She sits in her Ivory tower and issues Papal Bulls about something she knows nothing about. Too Bad.
Is this ancient commie has-been hack still alive?
Guess so, but who cares about his Alzheimer ravings? This is news?

From the website of the Revolutionary Communist Party (revcom.us or rwor.org) :
"Create Public Opinion, Seize Power: We are preparing minds and organizing forces for the time when there is a major crack in the system, whenever it comes and wherever it comes from: an opening that makes it possible to bring the future Revolutionary Army of the Proletariat (R.A.P.) into the field and wage a revolutionary armed struggle that actually has a chance of winning.
And we have said that building our party itself is the most important part of organizing forces for revolution. This is true now, and it is true looking forward to the creation of that future R.A.P. and the waging of that armed struggle.":
I guess he was taking the day off from trying to free Mumia!
Mumia Abu-Jamal is on that World Can’t Wait list I posted above. His name appears right after “Reverend” Jackson’s. Jamal is a revolutionary communist activist/author and convicted cop killer.
“Ed Asner is a liberal socialist communist moron”
And in other breaking news, tomorrow morning, the sun will rise in the East.
That was Ed McMahon. Get your old, senile has-beens right, for goodness’ sake...
