Graphic Language - Michael Moore has this on his website today and it is interesting to note...



...this was recorded by HBO on November 5, 2005. It was released as part of an album called, "Life is Worth Losing." Below is the album cover. 


George Carlin was great. He was an entertainer and comedian. He had problems with alcoholism and died on June 22, 2008. When he recorded "Life is Worth Losing" he had not taken an alcoholic beverage in nearly a year. 


Mr. Carlin had won five Grammy awards in his lifetime, which is not an easy achievement. 


This recording on You Tube became popular in 2008 with his death to celebrate his profit like character. It has continued its popularity through 2010 with the reality Americans are now facing in regard to the degradation of the Middle Class, unions and the social entitlements this country have been proud of to continue help for those less fortunate. 


The words he spoke in this performance in November of 2005 are uncanny. They are strangely a foretelling. Needless to say he has not been popular in right wing political circles, but, no one can deny Carlin was more than correct and we are seeing his words play out in our lives everyday.


I thank Michael Moore for reminding us what exactly we are facing and to believe it is the truth and not a mire illusion of the mind.
