Does anyone remember that email going around Carlin
It was Carlin calling himself a "bad american" for having republican views? Of course it was debunked by snopes but this conservative tried to cite that email proving that Carlin was a right winger. I posted the snopes link proving the con wrong and he put me on ignore..LOL

1. Those filthy bastards would try and steal him as one of their own
Bastards...too bad towards the end he didn't give a shit enough to bad mouth the email publically and loudly.

He did deny it though.

2. Carlin's own website debunks most of this crap

HHOW TO SPOT A FAKE
Here's a rule of thumb, folks: Nothing you see on the Internet is mine unless it came from one of my albums, books, HBO shows, or appeared on my website. If you see something with my name on it, and you really need to find out if it's mine, post a question on my bulletin board . But only if it's really important to you; don't fuck around with me for a lark.
