This week we focus on George Carlin's acerbic side. In four excerpts, Carlin blasts religion, euphemism--hard to tell which one he likes less; probably religion--and class warfare. As this list suggests, Carlin's perspective was Progressive, maybe even Leftist. And that perspective infused his standup comedy--to the approval and applause of middle-class audiences. Let's have 10 more just like him! (Ha! Fat chance!) Plus some music and a little commentary by KD.
