One, Two, Three
[Read the article: The man who murdered John]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]Haven't seen it but it needs a quick re-edit. If at end of movie, Lindsay Lohan could be told Lennon did not get proper Christian burial, she could say, "then he's going to hell." This, and exiting with title crawl to "Instant Karma" would be like punch in the gut for audience.
A fix would require a Kubrick-style redo about "The Ballad of John and Yoko" protracted deportation struggle and the hit sprung out of "YMCA" by a Bible beating rump thumper at the dawn of the city on the hill of the Reagan Era. Telling the story true would just angry up audiences. No theatre would show "Chapter and Verse: The Story Of Mark." I'm still waiting for "The Life of Brian" to turn up on my TIVO.
Be he in heaven or be he in hell;
Air Force has to tell a story to sell;
Tho Curtis LeMay may not have been God;
John Lennon's killer was certainly odd.

The Hollow Men
[Read the article: "Model minority" goes nutzoid]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]"Model" minority--- NOT!!! Television models expectations for "personalities." The public demands EQ. C-Span, Bill Moyers and Democracy Now! are off the map of American consciousness because they lack the compelling oomph of emotional cues. Whites like to communicate in so many "yee" "haw" sonic directives and emoticons that all I hear or see is "grok" "Grok" "groK" gROk" "GroK," and so on and so forth. Every Picture Tells a Story.

No Sir George! No Sir John!
[Read the article: The old communist smear]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]We dub u Sir Paul The Cute; We dub u Sir Ringo The Magneloquent. Those chose are either cute or "Chosen." Pete Best was---- NOT! A mixed-up downwards sort. John mixed his message and associations. George: much the same, tho different. Should a band trademark the word, "Queen" it shall be proclaimed they be the best and finest album of all time. Even and greater yet, than a group such as has trademarked the word, "America."

Suit Yourself
[Read the article: Race and the white coat]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]I can only wish I could refuse "health care" and it's Big Pharma. Doctors and dentists have contempt for me and the feeling is mutual. As for the BILLS? That goes double for me; I don't pay protection money to Insurance, so it comes out of my pocket.
