any comments on george carlin anti american quotes?

Also, here's Bill Hicks saying pretty much the same thing:

"I was over in Australia, and everyone's like: 'Are you proud to be an American?' And I was like, 'Um, I don't know, I didn't have a lot to do with it. You know, my parents f***ed there, that's about all.'"

But he then goes on to explain how he hates patriotism.

Carlin was a graduate student of humanity. His insights and being able to translate them into a medium that made people want to listen to him is why he will always be one of my favorite performers.

OP if you haven't really listened to Carlin's work, I urge you to do so. He provoked thought and introspection in the listener on a level most clergy pray for. Yes, he was raunchy, foul mouthed, and raw quite a bit, but that should never take away from the genius that he possessed.

RIP Mr Carlin, I will forever be a fan.

Sensitive poster is sensitive.

Early days Carlin was brilliant. Later Carlin, "meh." Kinda like Elvis.
