George Harrison wrote that song, not John. But it’s a good one.

Yoko would “substantiate” anything that suited her.

George Harrison wrote “Taxman.”

I find it hard to think it was a coincidence that John was shot with Yoko standing next to him and not one bullet. Yoko couldn’t wait to milk the dollars from John’s death.

He got back with Julian, and Julian and Sean have a very good relationship.

I don’t think Yoko would ever admit John’s growing conservatism. I’m not sure she’d even admit it to herself.

RE :”People *do* change, you know.

Right, I heard Romney is pro-life too :)

Lennon may well have moved towards the center being a father but he had a long way to go, 'Imagine' is clearly a Marxist Dream (Heaven on Earth) song, something the 1930s American Communists would rally to.

Believe it or not the Beatles (together) are to me still the one of the most talented and artistically brilliant (mainly Lennon/McCartney with George Martin's help) musical artists of all time leaving behind a set of work that no-one has come close to. But Lennon's short solo career was very un-notable.

John was smart ... so him liking Ronald Reagan is not a stretch for me. Remember, they called the people who elected him “Reagan Democrats”. Even Ronaldus Maximus himself was a Democrat once... just look up his great speech “A Time For Choosing” from Oct 1964 on Youtube here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qXBswFfh6AY

If this gets any traction, watch John morph from the brilliant one to the mean, grouchy one.
