This was sent to me a couple days ago as email to be passed on...

42 years ago Red Skelton said something very prophetic on his T.V show....It's amazing!

I had to pass it on. I remember watching the Red Skelton Comedy Hour, IIRC when I was small, but this was before me.

I had to pass it on. Even the dissenters back then were patriots first, it seems. ( Not that I know anything about Red S)

I remember a Red Skelton show back around 1956 or so. He did his entire show with all the funny characters, then at the end, he announced to the audience and live TV that his son had died of leukemia that same day. He said the show must go on.

I always loved Red’s version as well as John Wayne’s version. Thank You for posting memories.

Thank You. and in my humbly opinion Red Skelton was
America. Maybe, soon American fortitude can resemble
the past great ones, should the need arise.

Six months later I enlisted in the US Army in an attempt to understand why our Colleges and Universities were being torn apart by the unwashed-and uneducated. As a cherry stationed at Ft.Carson I watched a younger John F.Kerry commit TREASON by saying on National TV that War Crimes were committed every day
and he he had committed war crimes.And I saw him toss what he led us to believe were his Combat Service ribbons over a chain link fence saying he wanted “nothing to do with what the Navy had given him for his service -so long as we are in Vietnam. I never met a greater Patriot than Red Skelton
Never met a greater traitor than John F.Kerry.(unless it is
Obama)
