Are you that stupid that you don't know he was making fun of American biblical bloodlust and that he was anti-death penalty?

"the white republican bankers are really liberal democrat bankers that back Obama"... yeah, because obama is actually immortal and has been here all the time for decades, like the bankers have. yeah, that logic is flawless, 'cause bankers obviously are recent, they're clearly not from older days, like when slavery was still a standard.

Gorge! Are you an idiot?!

If you lowered the victim by their head into the oil, they'd stop screaming faster!

Not only that, but he's dead, so Bob obviously doesnt know what the hell he's talking about. If Carlin were still alive, he would have a field day with people like this, who dont understand sarcasm, and take everything literally.

trolling is overrated. i mean, seriously, you people make it too easy!

He's not leftwing. He hates christian conservatives as much as he hates those white college hipster liberals.

Looks like we have ourselves a dumbass!

And BTW - how do you know who financed slavery? I would say the tribal leaders that sold the slaves were at least as guilty as the white Europeans that brought them here and horse traded them. Stop being so God damn righteous. You sound as if you think republicans have an exclusive on being assholes. trust me there are plenty of liberal democrat assholes and they are right in front of your face. Geez get a life!

What the hell are you talking about. This video was made sometime during the Bush era and even then bankers were largely liberal. They mostly backed Gore and Kerry so what does the time of slavery have to do with George Carlin? Your questioning my logic? I guess in your world i am an idiot. OK I mean who cares. Besides I said Carlin was funny even if I disagreed with him. How many comedians can you say that about? very, very few. So whats your beef? White republican bankers is a stereo type.

is this real ?

killing is wrong when you do it, but it is ok when the gov't does it

i never know with George Carlin to what degree he is being sarcastic, exaggerating his own opinions for comic purposes, or just saying whatever's funny.
